Sulphur Springs sits just north of the Hillsborough River, a working-class Tampa neighborhood with deep roots and a location that puts you 14 minutes from downtown and 22 minutes from the airport. It's the kind of place where you can trade a longer commute for more square footage per dollar, with neighbors like Old Seminole Heights and the 40th Street Corridor shaping the character of this corner of the city.
The market here is small and moves fast. With just one active listing at $309,900 and only six homes sold in the past year, inventory is genuinely thin — but sellers are getting 101% of asking on average, so priced-right homes don't linger. Buyers who compare it to pricier pockets of Tampa will find the entry point notably lower, especially against neighborhoods like Lake Magdalene.
Sulphur Springs is a community in Tampa, Florida.

Sulphur Springs FAQs
Is Sulphur Springs a good place to live?+
It's a good fit if you want a Tampa address with a short commute — downtown is about 14 minutes and the airport roughly 22. The neighborhood sits alongside established areas like the 40th Street Corridor, and assigned schools include Sulphur Springs Elementary, Sligh Middle School, and Chamberlain High School.
Is Sulphur Springs expensive?+
No — it's one of the more affordable neighborhoods in the Tampa market. The median sold price over the past year was $258,450, and the single active listing is priced at $309,900, well below what you'd pay in areas like Gandy/Sun Bay South.
What do homes cost in Sulphur Springs?+
The current active listing is priced at $309,900, and homes run about $258 per square foot against a median size of 1,200 square feet. Over the last 12 months the median sold price was $258,450, so there's a real spread between list and sold values worth discussing with your agent.
How is the market in Sulphur Springs?+
It's a thin but active market — just one home is listed right now and six sold in the past year. Sellers are averaging 101% of asking, with a median of 62 days on market, which tells you well-priced homes get attention while overpriced ones wait. It's a smaller pool than nearby Tampa neighborhoods, so timing matters.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
Property taxes here are notably low, with a median of about $262 per year. There's no meaningful HOA data for the neighborhood, which reflects its mix of older, non-planned housing — always verify any fees on a specific property before you write an offer.
