Summerlyn Home Sizes Are Growing in Recent Months

Is the typical home in Summerlyn getting bigger? The data says yes. Across 37 closed sales in the rolling six months ending September 30, 2026, the median living area reached 2,213 square feet. This represents a 2.9% increase compared to the prior six-month period and a 14.8% jump from the same window last year. ALEX Intelligence analyzed the size trends by comparing current sales against historical cohorts. The shift suggests buyers are prioritizing larger floor plans, with the median home now at 2,213 square feet. In contrast, the median price per square foot has dipped to $157, down 9.8% from a year ago, indicating that while homes are physically larger, the cost per unit of space has softened. This trend toward bigger living spaces coincides with faster sales cycles. The median days on market dropped to just 19 days, a 65.5% improvement over the prior six months and 20.8% faster than last year. As inventory tightens, larger homes appear to be moving more quickly than smaller units. The data reflects a clear evolution in local demand. While the median sale price remained relatively stable at $339,000, the physical footprint of the typical home has expanded significantly over the past year. This growth in square footage is a defining characteristic of the current Summerlyn market. Want to see this home? Call or text George at 713.918.9951 for a private showing. Data from Unlock MLS.
