Median days on market

Branford sits along the Suwannee River in the quiet stretch of North Florida where the water runs clear and cold from natural springs, and days move at a slower pace. Life here leans on the river and the land — this is a town where a good chunk of the market is waterfront homes and where land & lots still feel within reach. It's a real small-town corner of Gilchrist County, with kids feeding into Lafayette Elementary and Lafayette High School.

For a buyer today, the market is small and specific: 16 active listings with a median list price of $549,000, though the range runs wide from $170,000 to $3,000,000. Homes are moving at a healthy clip, with a median of 27.5 days on market, and the inventory skews toward single-family homes alongside a real share of manufactured and mobile homes. If you're watching your budget, it's worth checking what's just reduced or using browse by price to zero in on the lower end.

Branford is in Gilchrist County, Florida.

Branford real estate FAQs

Is Branford a good place to live?+

Branford is a small North Florida town built around the Suwannee River, so it suits buyers who want quiet, water access, and space over city convenience. Nine of the current 16 listings are waterfront homes, which tells you what draws people here. Families feed into Lafayette Elementary and Lafayette High School.

Is Branford expensive?+

It depends entirely on what you're after. The median list price is $549,000, but listings start as low as $170,000 and climb to $3,000,000, so there's a wide spread — you can use browse by price to find the lower end. The average works out to about $454 per square foot on a median home size of 1,994 square feet.

Right now the median list price is $549,000 across 16 active listings, with a range from $170,000 to $3,000,000. There are four luxury homes ($1m+) on the market, most tied to prime river frontage, which pulls the top of the range up.

How is the Branford market right now?+

Inventory is tight at 16 active listings, and homes are moving at a median of 27.5 days on market. That's a fairly brisk pace for a rural market, so it pays to keep an eye on what's just reduced and act when the right home lists.

What about HOA fees and property taxes in Branford?+

There are no notable HOA communities in the current inventory, so most homes here carry no HOA dues. Property taxes run a median of about $3,282 per year, which is modest for a market where much of the value sits in land & lots and river frontage.
