By Jesse McGreevy and Marc Comisar, McGreevy and Comisar, Domain Realty Group. Updated October 2026 · Values from the Lee County Property Appraiser roll and recorded sales to September 25, 2026 and the Southwest Florida MLS pulled October 27, 2026

What is your Kinleyland home worth? This is McGreevy and Comisar’s valuation guide for the owners of the 27 houses and 3 vacant lots in Kinleyland, the 30-lot recorded plat on Kings Kew and Queens Kew at the south end of Little Hickory Island, in Bonita Beach and the City of Bonita Springs. Every lot touches water: 15 sit on the open bay and 15 on canals. The Southwest Florida MLS files three of the neighborhood’s recent closings under the name Kinleyland and three under Bonita Beach, so this page matches every sale by street, not by the label on the listing. If you are deciding whether to sell, read it beside our guide to selling your Kinleyland home; if you are also buying, read our guide to buying a Kinleyland home.

Here is the short answer. Lee County recorded one qualified Kinleyland house sale in the 12 months to September 25, 2026, at $1,937,500 in January 2026, and six in the 60 months, from $1,800,000 to $2,100,000; the median of these six sales is $1,966,250. The Southwest Florida MLS shows six Kinleyland closings in the 60 months to October 27, 2026, from $1,800,000 to $2,195,000, and no house listed or pending on that date. Every one of the six was a resale of an older house, and the band held whether the house had 1,440 or 3,671 square feet of heated area.

McGreevy and Comisar have been Top 1% Real Estate Agents Nationally Since 2008, and our office is at 24031 S Tamiami Trl #101 in Bonita Springs. Every figure below comes from recorded sales, the county roll and the MLS, not from a portal’s estimate. Where the record is thin, we list the sales one by one instead of leaning on a median.

What Is My Kinleyland Home Worth in 2026?

A Kinleyland home is worth what the water, the lot and the house together support on the recent record, and in Kinleyland the lot carries most of the number. Lee County recorded six qualified Kinleyland house sales in the 60 months to September 25, 2026, from $1,800,000 to $2,100,000; the median of these six sales is $1,966,250.

Data updated: October 2026 (Southwest Florida MLS, pulled October 27, 2026; Lee County Property Appraiser and Florida DOR recorded sales)

Kinleyland is a small record, so the method matters more than any single median. Under our rule, the first window of 12, 24, 36 and 60 months that holds ten qualified sales would lead. None does, so the county sales are listed one by one in the section on what Kinleyland homes sold for, and a median appears only as the median of these n sales. Where n is even, the median is the mean of the middle pair, and we name both.

Three more MLS figures belong beside the 60-month row. Across all six closings the median was 65 days on market and the median sale was 88.31 percent of final list price, and the median price per square foot of MLS living area was $729. The single closing of the last 12 months, in January 2026, took 30 days and sold at 92.26 percent of its $2,100,000 final list price.

The county file holds 37 qualified Kinleyland house sales since December 1978, and 14 since 2009, the year from which the record is complete. We use those numbers only as counts. Most of the 37 were made at 1980s, 1990s and 2000s prices, so no all-history median appears on this page as a price signal.

Key Takeaways

These are the ten facts about Kinleyland home values that matter most in October 2026, drawn from the Lee County roll and recorded sales, the Southwest Florida MLS, FEMA’s flood map and the City of Bonita Springs, each explained in the section that covers it.

  • Six qualified county sales in 60 months. From $1,800,000 to $2,100,000; the median of these six sales is $1,966,250, and one sale recorded in the last 12 months, $1,937,500 in January 2026.
  • Six MLS closings in 60 months. From $1,800,000 to $2,195,000, a median of 65 days on market and a median of 88.31 percent of final list price.
  • No competing listing. No Kinleyland house was listed for sale or pending in the MLS on October 27, 2026.
  • A tight band at any size. A 1,440 square foot house brought $1,800,000 and a 3,671 square foot house $2,000,000, so price per square foot alone misleads here.
  • The land carries the value. On the 2026 roll the land is a median 67 percent of a Kinleyland house’s just value.
  • Bay against canal. The roll’s median land value is $1,225,417 on the 15 bay lots and $724,335 on the 15 canal lots, but the six recent sales split four bay and two canal and do not show a bay premium.
  • Owners who sold twice gained. All four Kinleyland houses that recorded two qualified sales since 2009 sold for more the second time, by $275,000 to $1,247,500.
  • The county’s value is not the price. The six sales closed at 0.92 to 1.77 times the parcel’s 2026 just value; the median of these six multiples is 1.40.
  • One flood zone. FEMA Zone AE at a 10-foot base flood elevation on 26 of 27 house footprints, a City design flood elevation of 11 feet, evacuation Zone A.
  • Lee County title custom. The seller customarily pays the owner’s title policy and the deed stamps, and there is no association estoppel to order; the contract controls.

Table of Contents

This guide runs from the short answer and our method through the county and MLS sales, values by water, size and age, the land under the house, taxes and flood, a comparison with Carolands, the island ladder, a net sheet and the questions Kinleyland owners ask most.

What this page does not claim about us

We do not claim a Kinleyland sale on this page, and nothing here implies that we listed or sold a house on Kings Kew or Queens Kew. Our case rests on the public record we read for you, our results across Bonita Springs and Southwest Florida, and how we will price your home. Few Kinleyland houses come up for sale, so the next owner who sells should call us first.

Get Your Free Kinleyland, Bonita Beach Home Valuation in 60 Seconds

To get a free Kinleyland home valuation, enter your details in the valuation form on this page or call Jesse direct at (239) 898-6072. We reply the same day with a value range built from the recorded Kinleyland sales for your water and size, then confirm it with a short walk-through of the house and the seawall if you want one.

What we send you

A range for your house, the Lee County sales and Southwest Florida MLS closings we used with their dates, water, sizes and prices, the deeds we set aside and why, the roll’s land and building values for your lot, and the adjustments we made for frontage, elevation, age and condition. Because only six qualified sales are recorded in 60 months, we show every sale individually.

What we need from you

Whether your lot is on the bay or a canal, the heated square feet and bedroom count, the year the house was built and what you have renovated since, the elevation certificate if you have one, the dock, lift and seawall permits, and your current flood and wind policies. If the house was repaired after Hurricane Ian, send the permits, because a buyer’s insurer and lender will ask for them.

Why Does an Online Estimate Miss Kinleyland Home Values?

An online estimate misses Kinleyland values because it prices square feet and nearby sales, while Kinleyland prices water, land and elevation. Six sales in 60 months is too few for a model to learn the street, and the county and MLS describe the same houses with different sizes, so an automated number can land far from the recorded band.

A thin and uneven record

Six qualified house sales in five years, one of them in the last twelve months, is a sample a model cannot fit. It will reach to the rest of Little Hickory Island, where Gulf-front estates on Hickory Boulevard sold for several times the Kinleyland band, or to mainland houses across the bay that sell for a fraction of it. Either borrowed comparable pulls the estimate away from Kings Kew and Queens Kew.

Two sizes for the same house

The county roll and the MLS measure houses differently. The January 2026 sale is recorded with 1,671 square feet of county heated area and 3,095 square feet of MLS living area; the April 2025 sale with 1,620 and 3,112. A model that divides price by one size and multiplies by the other will be off by hundreds of thousands of dollars. We label every size on this page with its source and never mix the two.

Deeds the county set aside

The county file carries many Kinleyland deeds that are not market sales: transfers between family members or into a trust, corrective deeds, and deeds for $100 or less. The Florida DOR transfer codes mark each one, and the Property Appraiser publishes the transfer code list. We count only the qualified codes. A portal that reads every deed as a price will see sales that never happened.

How Do We Value a Kinleyland Home?

We value a Kinleyland home in five steps: the right recorded sales from the right window, adjustments for water, lot, elevation and condition, a check for time and season, a look at what is for sale on the day, and the water side of the lot itself. Each step is shown so you can test the number we give you.

Data updated: October 2026 (Southwest Florida MLS, pulled October 27, 2026; Lee County Property Appraiser and Florida DOR recorded sales)

Step one: the right comparables, from the right window

We start with the six qualified Kinleyland house sales of the 60 months to September 25, 2026 and the six MLS closings of the 60 months to October 27, 2026, matched by street and month so no sale counts twice. If your house is unusual for the plat, we add the nearest bay and canal sales elsewhere on Little Hickory Island and say which ones we used.

Step two: adjust for what Kinleyland buyers pay for

Kinleyland buyers pay for the water first: bay or canal, the width and depth at the dock, the seawall’s age and the lift. Then the lot’s size, the lowest floor against the 10-foot base flood elevation, the age and roof of the house, the pool, and the condition inside. Heated area matters, but in this record it matters less than any of those.

Step three: time and season

The six sales span April 2022 to January 2026, and the Southwest Florida market moved over that span. We read the order of the sales, the days each one spent on the market and the season it sold in, and we date the range we give you. Winter buyers reach the island from January to April.

Step four: the competition this week

No Kinleyland house was listed or pending on October 27, 2026, so a new listing would face no competitor on its own two streets. Buyers will still compare it with the canal and bay houses listed elsewhere on Little Hickory Island and with the two Carolands houses listed that day at $3,995,000 and $6,195,000.

A worked example: a smaller older house on a bay lot

Take a one-story house of about 1,670 square feet of county heated area, built in the 1980s on a bay lot, with a pool and a seawall. The closest recorded match is the January 2026 sale on Kings Kew: $1,937,500 for a 1988 bay-front house of 1,671 heated square feet, 30 days on market at 92.26 percent of its $2,100,000 list price. We would start there, test it against the June 2023 bay sale at $1,800,000 and the June 2025 bay sale at $1,900,000, then adjust for your house’s elevation, roof, interior and dock.

What Did Kinleyland Homes Sell For in the Last Five Years?

Kinleyland homes sold for $1,800,000 to $2,100,000 in the six qualified Lee County sales of the 60 months to September 25, 2026, and for $1,800,000 to $2,195,000 in the six Southwest Florida MLS closings of the 60 months to October 27, 2026. The two records describe the same six houses, and both are listed below.

Data updated: October 2026 (Southwest Florida MLS, pulled October 27, 2026; Lee County Property Appraiser and Florida DOR recorded sales)

With fewer than ten sales in each window, we list the sales rather than state a market median. Streets are named; house numbers are not. Water and the 2026 just value are the Lee County roll’s figures for the parcel today.

The median of these six sales is $1,966,250, the mean of the middle pair, $1,937,500 and $1,995,000. The median price per county heated square foot of these six sales is $1,157.67, the mean of $1,155.85 and $1,159.49, and the spread from $544.81 to $1,296.30 shows why we never price a Kinleyland house from that figure alone. Every one of the six was a resale of an older house; none was the first sale of a new house.

January 2026Kings Kew53,095$2,100,000$1,937,50092.3%30

The median of these six closings is $1,968,750, the mean of $1,937,500 and $2,000,000. Their median days on market is 65, the mean of 47 and 83, and their median sale to final list price is 88.31 percent. The median price per square foot of MLS living area is $729. The MLS files three of the six under the subdivision name Kinleyland and three under Bonita Beach, so we matched them by street.

Where the two records disagree

On the April 2022 sale the county deed records $1,995,000 and the MLS records a $2,195,000 closing price. The county records the deed consideration and the MLS records the price the listing broker reported, so this page prints the deed figure as the sale price and names the MLS figure here once. Bedrooms and sizes also differ between the two tables because the county and the MLS measure different things.

How the recent windows look

One qualified sale in the 12 months to September 25, 2026, four in 24 months, the same four in 36 months and six in 60 months. Three of the six closed in 2025, the busiest Kinleyland year in the county file since 2009. No Kinleyland house sold in 2024 in either record.

The vacant lot record

The county recorded one qualified Kinleyland lot sale in the 60 months, $1,100,000 in April 2024 on Kings Kew, a canal lot. The same lot had sold in June 2021 for $500,000. The three vacant lots carry 2026 just values of $715,791, $831,230 and $1,381,484. MLS vacant-land closings were not part of the residential MLS pull of October 27, 2026.

What Is a Kinleyland Home Worth by Water, Size, Age and Lot?

A Kinleyland home’s value splits first by water and lot, then by age, and only then by size. The 2026 roll values the 14 bay-front houses at a median of $1,750,297.50 and the 13 canal houses at $1,196,392, but six recorded sales cannot confirm that gap, and the record cannot split price by bedroom count.

Data updated: October 2026 (Southwest Florida MLS, pulled October 27, 2026; Lee County Property Appraiser and Florida DOR recorded sales)

Canal1513$724,335$1,196,3922$1,995,000 and $2,100,000

The roll’s land value puts a bay lot well above a canal lot, which matches how the island’s land is valued as a whole: across Little Hickory Island the roll’s median land value is $937,032 for a bay lot and $532,008 for a canal lot. The six recent sales do not show the same order: the two canal sales were the highest of the six. Six sales cannot separate the water from the condition, age and elevation of each house, so we compare your lot with the nearest match on its own water. Water here is the roll’s water field for all 30 parcels: 15 bay and 15 canal, of which 14 bay and 13 canal parcels carry houses. The roll’s land-use description, which our Little Hickory Island tables use, also reads 14 bay and 13 canal for the houses but classes two of them differently.

3,022 to 3,800 sq ft7$2,176,342$1,225,417

On the roll, larger houses sit on more valuable land as well as carrying more building, so size and lot move together. In the sales, four of the six were houses under 1,900 county heated square feet, and they sold from $1,800,000 to $2,100,000.

1990s6$1,652,257.50
2000s2$2,453,692.50
2010s3$1,774,650

The roll’s year built is the parcel’s current newest building. Five of the six recent sales were houses built from 1974 to 1988; the sixth was the 1996 house that sold for $2,000,000. None of the three houses built since 2010 has recorded a qualified resale.

What the record cannot split

Six sales cannot price a bedroom, a pool or a second story, and they cannot isolate the bay premium from condition. Twenty-one of the 27 houses are one story and 22 of the 30 lots carry a pool on the roll, so most comparables share those features anyway. Where the record is silent, we say so in your valuation and lean on the island’s wider bay and canal sales.

Are Kinleyland Home Values Rising or Falling?

Kinleyland home values rose sharply from 2009 to 2022 and have held in a flat band since: the median of the seven qualified county sales from 2021 to September 25, 2026 is $1,937,500, against $735,000 for the four sales of 2016 to 2020 and $690,000 for the three of 2009 to 2015. Since 2023 the sales have stayed between $1,800,000 and $2,100,000.

This is a history table, not a price for today. Each period’s figure is the median of that period’s sales only, and the record is complete from 2009.

What the repeat sales show

Four Kinleyland houses recorded two qualified sales each since 2009, all on the bay, and all four sold for more the second time. These pairs are the cleanest measure of change, because the lot and the water are the same in both sales.

The median gain of the four pairs is $1,012,500, the mean of $825,000 and $1,200,000. The gains are before selling costs and improvements, and the record does not show what each owner spent on the house between the two sales.

What the two tables suggest

The big step came between 2019 and 2022, when Kinleyland moved from the $700,000 to $1,050,000 range to near $2,000,000. Since then the band has been flat to slightly lower at the top: the April 2025 sale at $2,100,000 is the highest qualified deed, and the January 2026 sale closed at $1,937,500. The MLS sale-to-list ratios, 75.0 to 92.3 percent on the five closings since 2023, show buyers negotiating below asking prices.

One Kinleyland Home’s Public Record

One Kinleyland home’s public record shows the whole arc of the plat’s value: a 1988 bay-front house on Kings Kew of 1,671 county heated square feet sold as a vacant lot for $62,000 in March 1987, then as a house for $334,000 in June 1999, $690,000 in March 2014 and $1,937,500 in January 2026, the most recent Kinleyland sale in both the county file and the MLS.

The chain of sales

Deed datePriceWhat the record shows
March 1987$62,000A qualified sale of the lot, before the house was built
June 1999$334,000A qualified resale, at the prices of the late 1990s
March 2014$690,000A qualified resale, more than double the 1999 price
January 2026$1,937,500A qualified resale, 2.81 times the 2014 price

The January 2026 closing in the MLS

The MLS records the January 2026 sale at $1,937,500 against a final list price of $2,100,000, 92.26 percent, after 30 days on market, with 5 bedrooms and 3,095 square feet of MLS living area. The county roll still records 2 bedrooms and 1,671 square feet of heated area for the parcel. That gap is the kind of difference a valuation has to explain rather than average away: the MLS describes the house as marketed, and the roll describes what the county has measured.

The roll after the sale

The parcel’s 2026 just value is $1,551,054, so the sale closed at 1.25 times the county’s value. The roll’s land value for the lot is $1,088,091, about 70 percent of the just value. A buyer’s next assessment will reset toward the purchase price, which is why the seller’s tax bill is not the buyer’s.

What the sale teaches a seller

A well-documented bay house of modest size sold in 30 days at a price inside the recent band, close to its final list price. Kinleyland buyers paid for the bay lot, the seawall and a house they could use as it stood. Pricing from the band and documenting the water side of the lot closed the sale in 30 days, the second-shortest market time of the six closings.

A second chain on Queens Kew

A 1974 bay-front house on Queens Kew of 2,221 county heated square feet recorded four qualified sales: $217,000 in July 1987, $223,000 in March 1988, $700,000 in March 2012 and $1,900,000 in June 2025. The last sale took 47 days in the MLS at 79.2 percent of a $2,399,000 final list price, a reminder that an asking price above the band costs time and leaves room for a buyer to negotiate.

What Moves a Kinleyland Home’s Value Up or Down?

A Kinleyland home’s value moves up with a deeper or wider water view, a sound permitted seawall and dock, a lowest floor at or above the flood elevation and a newer roof, and moves down with a low floor, deferred seawall work, an unpermitted dock, an old roof and any unresolved Hurricane Ian repair. Size matters, but less than those.

Water and frontage

Bay lots carry the open views and the higher land value on the roll; canal lots carry sheltered dockage and a shorter fetch in a storm. Inside each group, the width of the water at the dock, the depth at low tide and the route to the marked channel decide what boat the lot can keep, and a buyer with a boat prices that first.

The seawall, dock and lift

Twenty-five of the 30 lots carry a seawall on the roll, and each owner maintains their own. A seawall with a recent cap and a permit history adds confidence; a cracked panel run or a leaning wall is a repair the buyer will price, often at more than it costs. A permitted dock and lift in good order add to buyer interest; an unpermitted one is a liability. The City’s Ordinance 23-11 limits a dock to 25 percent of the waterway width.

Elevation and the flood rules

FEMA maps the house footprints in Zone AE at a 10-foot base flood elevation, and the City sets the design flood elevation at 11 feet NAVD88. A house whose lowest floor sits at or above those lines prices better for flood insurance and can be renovated without being raised. A house below them carries a higher flood premium and sits under the 50 percent substantial improvement rule for any major renovation.

Age, roof and wind protection

Sixteen of the 27 houses date from the 1970s and 1980s. In a 170 mph wind zone, insurers price a house on its roof age and shape, its opening protection and its mitigation features. A newer roof and impact-rated openings, shown on a wind mitigation report, lower the buyer’s premium and widen the pool of buyers who can insure the house.

Condition and renovation

Inside the band, condition separates the sales: a house ready to use sells closer to the top, and a house that needs a full renovation sells closer to the lot’s value. A renovation has to stay under 50 percent of the building’s market value unless the owner plans to elevate, so the buyer of an older house prices that ceiling into the offer.

Is a Kinleyland Home Worth More as a House or as a Lot?

Most Kinleyland homes are worth more as houses than as lots, but the lot carries most of the value: on the 2026 roll the land is a median 67 percent of a Kinleyland house’s just value, and the recorded lot sale of April 2024 brought $1,100,000 for a canal lot. An older house in poor condition can sell close to the land’s value.

Data updated: October 2026 (Southwest Florida MLS, pulled October 27, 2026; Lee County Property Appraiser and Florida DOR recorded sales)

What the roll says the land is worth

The roll’s median land value across all 30 Kinleyland parcels is $948,717, and across the 27 house lots $1,004,212. The three vacant lots carry just values of $715,791 and $831,230 on the canal and $1,381,484 on the bay.

What lots have sold for

The county recorded one qualified Kinleyland lot sale in the 60 months, $1,100,000 in April 2024 for a canal lot that had sold for $500,000 in June 2021. Earlier lot sales since 2009 ran from $430,000 to $637,000, between February 2011 and August 2017, and three of those lots now carry houses built in 2015 and 2019.

When the lot sets the price

A house whose building adds little over the land, because of age, a low floor or storm damage, prices against the lot record and the cost of building new. A new house must have its lowest floor at or above the 11-foot design flood elevation and stay within 35 feet above the minimum flood elevation and 40 feet absolute under Land Development Code section 4-1874(1). Buyers who plan to rebuild price that envelope and the build cost, not the existing rooms.

When the house sets the price

A house with a sound structure, a usable floor plan and a lowest floor near or above the flood line sells as a house. The six recent sales were all houses sold to buyers who could live in them or renovate within the rules, which is why they cleared the land values by a wide margin.

How Do Taxes, Fees, Insurance, Flood Zone and Upkeep Affect a Kinleyland Home’s Value?

Taxes, insurance, the flood zone and the upkeep of the seawall are the carrying costs a Kinleyland buyer subtracts from what they will pay, because there is no association fee to compare. A buyer prices each one for the specific house, so a seller who documents them protects the price. None of these costs is published house by house.

Data updated: October 2026 (Lee County Property Appraiser 2026 roll; FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer, queried October 17, 2026; City of Bonita Springs)

No association fee, and what is not published

Kinleyland has no homeowners’ association on the Florida Division of Corporations record, so there is no monthly fee, no estoppel certificate, no reserve study and no special assessment to disclose. What is not published is the cost of each house’s flood and wind policies and the state of each seawall; those come from the seller’s own policies, the elevation certificate and the City permit record.

Property taxes in the buyer’s math

Kinleyland lots are in taxing district 017, City of Bonita Springs and Bonita Springs Fire, at 12.7970 mills for 2025 and 12.8217 proposed for 2026. On a $1,937,500 taxable value, 12.7970 mills is about $24,794.19 a year before exemptions and non-ad valorem charges. A buyer’s assessment resets toward the purchase price at the next January 1 under section 193.155 for a homestead or section 193.1554 for a non-homestead house, so the buyer’s bill is often far above the seller’s.

Flood insurance

Every Kinleyland lot is in a FEMA special flood hazard area, so a lender requires flood insurance. The National Flood Insurance Program caps building coverage at $250,000 and contents at $100,000, with a 30-day waiting period, as FEMA’s NFIP questions and answers explain, and FEMA prices each building on its own features. The elevation certificate is the document that sets the premium, so a seller who has one in hand removes a question from the buyer’s list.

Seawall, dock and lift upkeep

With 25 seawalls on the roll and no association, each owner carries the seawall, dock and lift. A seawall cap, a new panel run or a lift motor are the common repairs; a full seawall replacement needs a City permit, and work over state submerged lands can need a Florida Department of Environmental Protection authorization as well. A buyer discounts for the repair they can see and for the uncertainty they cannot.

The flood zone itself

FEMA maps the whole plat in one zone, AE at a 10-foot base flood elevation, on panel 12071C0654G, effective November 17, 2022; 26 of the 27 house footprints are wholly AE 10 and one is 95.5 percent AE 10 with a 4.5 percent edge in AE 11. Because every lot shares the zone, the flood map does not separate one Kinleyland lot from another; the lowest floor of each house does.

Is the Property Appraiser’s Value the Same as Market Value for a Kinleyland Home?

No. The Lee County Property Appraiser’s just value is an assessment for tax purposes, not a price. The six qualified Kinleyland sales of the 60 months closed at 0.92 to 1.77 times the parcel’s 2026 just value, and the median of these six multiples is 1.40, the mean of 1.25 and 1.54.

Why the roll does not track price

The roll values each parcel by mass appraisal as of January 1, and it carries each house’s measured size, which can lag a renovation or an addition. Kinleyland sells too rarely for the roll to follow each sale. The roll also values land and building separately, while buyers pay for the whole: a small older house on a good lot can sell at well over its just value, and a large house that needs work can sell below it.

Assessed value and the homestead cap

Twelve of the 27 houses carry a homestead exemption under section 196.031. For those twelve, the median 2026 assessed value is $938,932 against a median just value of $1,641,239.50, the effect of the Save Our Homes cap. Your assessed value is the tax base, not your market value, and the cap does not pass to a buyer.

What the county value is good for

The roll is useful for what it measures consistently: the land value of each lot, the split between bay and canal, the year built and the presence of a pool and a seawall. We use it to place your lot among the 30 and to spot a measurement the MLS describes differently, then price from the sales. If you think your just value is too high for tax purposes, the Lee County Property Appraiser handles the review and the Value Adjustment Board hears petitions under section 194.011.

Kinleyland vs Carolands: Which Holds Its Value Better?

Kinleyland holds its value in a steadier and narrower band than Carolands: its six county sales in the 60 months to September 25, 2026 ran from $1,800,000 to $2,100,000, against $1,600,000 to $7,700,000 for Carolands’ six. Carolands’ bay frontage and new houses reach far higher; Kinleyland’s record is the more predictable one.

Data updated: October 2026 (Southwest Florida MLS, pulled October 27, 2026; Lee County Property Appraiser and Florida DOR recorded sales; FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer, queried October 17, 2026)

Carolands is the other bayside canal neighborhood of Little Hickory Island, on McLaughlin Boulevard and Carol Court mid-island, and the one Kinleyland buyers most often compare. Carolands owners have their own Carolands home valuation guide.

The Carolands figures are from the Lee County roll and sale file of October 2026 and the Southwest Florida MLS pull of October 27, 2026, the same sources as the Kinleyland figures.

Which holds its value better, and for whom

For an owner who wants a predictable number, Kinleyland’s record is the steadier one: six county sales inside a $300,000 band, and four repeat sales since 2009 that all gained. For an owner who plans to rebuild on the bay, Carolands’ record shows more upside, because a new bay-front house there has sold above anything Kinleyland has recorded. A Kinleyland house sits closest to a Carolands canal house of average size, and we use Carolands canal sales as a cross-check, not as the comparable.

If you own in Carolands instead

Read our Carolands guide for its flood split and frontage, and the Carolands valuation guide for its sales. The VE zone on most of its bay front changes how a new house there must be built and insured, which no Kinleyland lot shares.

How Do Kinleyland Values Compare With the Rest of Little Hickory Island and Bonita Beach?

Kinleyland sits in the middle of Little Hickory Island’s price ladder: below the Gulf-front Bonita Beach plat, whose 30 county sales in 60 months had a $7,150,000 median, and above the Bonita Beach 1st Addition, at $1,162,500 on 18 sales. Its six sales, $1,800,000 to $2,100,000, are the tightest band of any section on the island with more than one sale.

Reading the table

The ladder follows the water. Gulf-front lots on the original plat lead, the bay and canal sections of Carolands, Kinleyland and the metes-and-bounds parcels follow, and the smaller interior lots of the 1st Addition and the Addition sit lower. Kinleyland’s band is narrow because its 30 lots are alike: all on the water, all in AE 10, mostly older houses of similar size.

Across the bay and down the island

For a seller, the island’s houses also compete with Barefoot Beach’s gated Collier homes on the same island and, at lower prices, with the mainland houses of Bonita Shores across the bay. Our island guide puts the island at a $2,600,000 12-month county median against Barefoot Beach’s $2,800,000 and Bonita Shores’ $590,000. Buyers who want a condominium instead look at the bay-front buildings on Bonita Beach Road, such as Little Hickory Bay and Hickory Bay West, and at the island’s manufactured-home community, Bonita Beach Mobile Home Villas. For the beach market as a whole, see our Bonita Beach home valuation guide.

What Will You Net When You Sell Your Kinleyland Home?

You will net roughly $1,805,269 after typical costs if your Kinleyland home sells at $1,937,500, the January 2026 price, and you offer the buyer’s agent compensation, or about $1,957,694 at $2,100,000, the highest recent deed, before any mortgage payoff. The sheets below show the arithmetic, and the commission lines are negotiated examples, not fixed rates.

Who pays what in Lee County

Florida law does not assign closing costs, and the contract controls. In Lee County, local custom has the seller choose the closing agent and pay for the owner’s title policy and the deed documentary stamps, while the buyer pays the mortgage stamps, the intangible tax and the recording of the deed. Collier County custom differs, so a net sheet from across the county line can mislead you. Kinleyland has no association, so there is no estoppel certificate fee on these sheets.

What the sheet leaves out

A mortgage payoff, repairs the buyer negotiates after inspection, a seawall or roof credit, a survey update, your share of any open permit work and your own tax position are not on these sheets. The title premium shown is the promulgated rate before any reissue credit. The closing agent’s settlement statement is the document of record, and the contract controls who pays each line.

Capital gains on a Kinleyland sale

IRS Publication 523 and IRS Topic 701 explain the exclusion of up to $250,000 of gain, or $500,000 for a married couple filing jointly, on a main home owned and lived in for two of the five years before the sale. Three of the four Kinleyland repeat-sale gains since 2009 exceeded $500,000 before costs, and with 15 of the 27 houses carrying no homestead exemption, many sellers here own a second home that the exclusion does not cover. Ask a tax adviser before you list.

What is the median price of a Kinleyland home?

With fewer than ten sales in any window, there is no market median. The median of the six county sales of the 60 months is $1,966,250, the mean of $1,937,500 and $1,995,000, and the median of the six MLS closings is $1,968,750.

What is the price per square foot in Kinleyland?

The median of the six county sales is $1,157.67 per square foot of county heated area, with a spread from $544.81 to $1,296.30; the median of the six MLS closings is $729 per square foot of MLS living area. The two measures use different sizes and are never mixed.

Are Kinleyland prices going up or down?

Up over the long record and flat since 2023. The seven qualified sales from 2021 to September 25, 2026 have a $1,937,500 median, against $735,000 for 2016 to 2020, and every sale since 2023 has fallen between $1,800,000 and $2,100,000.

What is the highest recent Kinleyland sale?

$2,100,000 in April 2025, a 1982 canal house on Kings Kew, in the county record. The MLS records $2,195,000 for the April 2022 closing that the county deed records at $1,995,000; this page uses the deed figure.

How many Kinleyland homes sold last year?

The county qualified one house sale in the 12 months to September 25, 2026, $1,937,500 in January 2026, and four in the 24 months. Three closed in calendar 2025.

How fast do Kinleyland homes sell?

The six MLS closings of the 60 months took 22 to 162 days on market, with a median of 65 days. The January 2026 closing took 30.

How close to asking do Kinleyland homes sell?

Sale to final list price on the six MLS closings ran from 75.0 to 100 percent, with a median of 88.31 percent. The January 2026 sale closed at 92.26 percent.

How many Kinleyland homes are for sale now?

None. No Kinleyland house was listed for sale or pending in the Southwest Florida MLS pull of October 27, 2026.

Is a bay lot worth more than a canal lot in Kinleyland?

On the 2026 roll, yes: the median land value is $1,225,417 on the bay and $724,335 on the canals. The six recent sales do not confirm it, because the two canal sales were the highest of the six, so we compare your lot with the nearest match on its own water.

Does the size of my house change my Kinleyland price?

Less than you might expect. In the 60 months a 1,440 square foot house sold for $1,800,000 and a 3,671 square foot house for $2,000,000. The lot, the water and the condition move a Kinleyland price more than the heated area does.

Is the county’s value my market value?

No. The six recent sales closed at 0.92 to 1.77 times the parcel’s 2026 just value, and the median of these six multiples is 1.40.

What if the buyer’s appraisal comes in below the contract price?

With six sales in 60 months, an appraiser has few comparables, so we give the appraiser the recorded Kinleyland sales, the elevation certificate and the permits up front. If the appraisal still comes in low, the contract’s appraisal terms decide whether the buyer renegotiates, brings cash or cancels.

What is my lot worth on its own?

The county recorded one Kinleyland lot sale in the 60 months, $1,100,000 for a canal lot in April 2024. The roll’s median land value is $948,717 across all 30 parcels, and the three vacant lots carry just values of $715,791, $831,230 and $1,381,484.

Can I sell my Kinleyland house as a teardown?

Yes. Price it against the lot record and the cost of building to the 11-foot design flood elevation within the island height limit, and give the buyer the survey and the elevation certificate.

Have Kinleyland owners sold for more than they paid?

All four houses that recorded two qualified sales since 2009 sold for more the second time, by $275,000 to $1,247,500; the median gain of the four is $1,012,500, before costs and improvements.

Who pays for the owner’s title policy when I sell in Kinleyland?

In Lee County the seller customarily pays the owner’s title policy and chooses the closing agent; the contract controls. At $1,937,500 the promulgated premium is $7,418.75.

How much will I net when I sell?

About $1,805,269 at $1,937,500 with a 2.75 percent listing commission and a 2.5 percent buyer-agent offer, or $1,853,706 without the buyer-agent offer, before any mortgage payoff. The sheets above show each line.

Is there an estoppel fee or HOA charge on a Kinleyland sale?

No. Kinleyland has no association on the state corporation record, so there is no estoppel certificate, no transfer fee and no association approval of the buyer.

Do I owe capital gains tax on the sale?

Possibly. IRS Publication 523 explains the exclusion of up to $250,000, or $500,000 for a married couple filing jointly, on a main home owned and lived in for two of the five years before the sale; a second home does not qualify. Ask your tax adviser.

Does my flood zone affect my Kinleyland value?

Every Kinleyland lot shares Zone AE at a 10-foot base flood elevation, so the zone does not separate one lot from another. Your house’s lowest floor against that line does, through the flood premium and the 50 percent rule.

What is the 50 percent rule, and does it affect value?

Work costing 50 percent or more of the building’s market value is a substantial improvement, and the house must then meet the current flood rules, including the 11-foot design flood elevation. Buyers who plan to renovate price that ceiling.

How does insurance affect what a buyer will pay?

A buyer adds the flood and wind premiums to the monthly cost of owning, so a lower premium supports a higher price. An elevation certificate, a wind mitigation report and a four-point inspection let the buyer quote coverage before the inspection period ends.

Does Hurricane Ian affect my value?

Ian’s record matters through your house’s own file: whether water entered, what was repaired and under which permit, and whether a substantial damage letter was issued. Closed permits and a clear history hold value; open questions cost it.

Does a dock or lift add value?

A permitted dock and lift in good condition add to buyer interest on a canal or bay lot; an unpermitted one is a liability. The roll’s dock flag is filled on only six lots, so buyers ask for the permit.

How much does the seawall matter?

A great deal. Twenty-five of the 30 lots carry a seawall that the owner alone maintains, and a buyer discounts heavily for a wall that needs work. Have its age, permit history and any repair estimate ready.

Will my buyer’s taxes be higher than mine?

Often. The assessment resets toward the purchase price at the next January 1, and 12 of the 27 houses carry a homestead exemption whose cap does not pass to a buyer. At 12.7970 mills, a $1,937,500 taxable value is about $24,794.19 a year before exemptions.

Can I rent my Kinleyland house, and does that change its value?

Yes, with a City of Bonita Springs rental permit, $100 per unit with an inspection and valid three years, and for stays under 30 days a state transient license and the Lee County tourist tax. A documented rental history helps an investor buyer; a tenant in place can narrow the buyer pool.

What documents should I gather before a valuation?

The deed, the survey, the elevation certificate, the dock, lift and seawall permits, any permits pulled after Hurricane Ian, the roof’s age, your flood and wind policies, a wind mitigation report and your 2025 tax bill.

What flood disclosure must I give the buyer?

Section 689.302 requires a written flood disclosure at or before the contract, covering known flood damage, flood insurance claims and federal flood assistance.

Is the best time to sell in season?

Southwest Florida’s seasonal buyers arrive from January to April. With six sales in 60 months, the record is too thin to prove a Kinleyland season, but four of the six closed between April and June, after a winter of showings.

How do I price a Kinleyland home with so few sales?

We use the six Kinleyland sales first, then the nearest bay and canal sales elsewhere on Little Hickory Island, adjusted for elevation, age and condition, and we date the range we give you.

How is Kinleyland different from Carolands on value?

Kinleyland’s six county sales in 60 months ran $1,800,000 to $2,100,000; Carolands’ six ran $1,600,000 to $7,700,000. Kinleyland is the steadier band, Carolands the wider and higher one, mostly because of bay frontage and new houses.

Who is the best agent to value my Kinleyland home?

Ask any agent for their read of the six recorded sales, the elevation certificate and the seawall before you sign. We bring all three to the first meeting, as Top 1% Real Estate Agents Nationally Since 2008, and we price from Kinleyland’s own record.

Is this the Kinleyland on Little Hickory Island?

Yes. This guide covers Kinleyland, Plat Book 29, Page 91, the 30 lots on Kings Kew and Queens Kew at the south end of Little Hickory Island near the Bonita Beach Road bridge, inside the City of Bonita Springs.

Why Does a Bonita Beach Home Specialist Matter When You Value Your Home?

A Bonita Beach home specialist knows which Little Hickory Island deeds are real sales, why the county and the MLS disagree on a Kinleyland house’s size, what the elevation certificate means for the price and how a seawall moves a buyer. Buyers pay for that clarity, and a valuation that reflects it holds up through the appraisal.

What a general agent tends to miss

We have seen small facts move a value: a house priced from its MLS square footage against comparables measured by the county, a related-party deed quoted as a sale, a Gulf-front estate used as a comparable for a canal house, and a seawall repair left for the buyer’s inspector to find. As Top 1% Real Estate Agents Nationally Since 2008, we build the valuation so those surprises do not reach the appraisal.

The Little Hickory Island and Bonita Beach context we value with

Our Kinleyland guide covers the plat, the zoning, the boating routes and the flood record, our Little Hickory Island community guide covers the island around it, and our Bonita Beach guide covers the beach market. For city-wide context read our Bonita Springs home valuation guide.

If you are buying after you sell

Many Kinleyland sellers are also buyers, moving up to the Gulf front, trading a canal for the bay or leaving the area. Read our guide to buying a Kinleyland home, see how we represent buyers and call Marc at (239) 287-5873 to time the sale and the purchase together.
