Pine Ridge Estates is an acreage neighborhood in Naples, Florida, bounded by Vanderbilt Beach Road to the north, Pine Ridge Road to the south, US 41 to the west and Goodlette-Frank Road to the east. It is inland rather than coastal, and the draw is lot size: large parcels, mature tree cover, no gates and no through traffic. Sixteen homes sold here in the first eight months of 2026 at a median of $4,225,000, at a median of 92% of their asking price. The neighborhood is being rebuilt, so original houses and new construction compete side by side.
Quick Facts
The sold median and the asking median are almost 2.4 times apart. That is not a discount — it is two different kinds of house on the market at the same time.
The MLS designation covers more than the estates, and blending them produces a median that describes nothing.
Pine Ridge Estates is the acreage alternative to the coastal neighborhoods. It sits inland, east of US 41, and what buyers come for is land rather than water: large lots, mature canopy, no gates, and enough separation between houses that the neighborhood is genuinely quiet.
Sixteen homes sold here in the first eight months of 2026 at a median of $4,225,000. Eighteen are currently listed at a median of $9,995,000. That looks like a market where nothing is selling at asking, and it is not. The two groups are different houses.
| Sold | Currently listed | |
|---|---|---|
| Median price | $4,225,000 | $9,995,000 |
| Count | 16 | 18 |
| Median size | 4,927 sq ft | 6,830 sq ft |
| Median year built | 2004 | 2020 |
| Median price per sq ft | $987 | $1,326 |
| Built 2015 or later | 6 of 16 | 11 of 18 |
| Days on market | 100 | 168 and counting |
The active listings are 39% larger, sixteen years newer and priced a third higher per square foot. They are not the same product at a worse price; they are a different product.
Compare like with like. The sixteen homes that sold were listed at a median of $4,627,450 and closed at $4,225,000 — a median of 92% of asking. That is an ordinary negotiation in a market with long marketing periods, not a collapse. Anyone quoting the $4.2 million sold median against the $10 million asking median is comparing 1970s and 2000s houses against new construction and calling the difference a discount.
The useful pattern is in days on market, split by vintage. Among the homes that sold, the older houses moved fastest: a 1983 house on Ridge Drive went in 20 days, a 1972 house on West Street in 23. Among the unsold listings, the longest-standing are almost all recent builds — 398 days, 288, 278, 234. Five of the eighteen active listings are 2025 or 2026 construction that has not yet found a buyer.
So Pine Ridge Estates is running as two markets at once. Original houses on large lots are clearing, often quickly, to buyers who want the land. Newly built 7,000 square foot houses asking $10 million and above are accumulating. If you are buying the first kind, the market is moving; if you are buying the second, you have time and choice.
The sixteen homes that sold were built between 1964 and 2024, six of them in 2017 or later. That spread is the neighborhood in a sentence: original houses on large lots are being bought, taken down and replaced, and both ends of that process are on the market at the same time. It is also why a single median for Pine Ridge Estates moves so much from year to year, and why the composition of what sold matters more here than the headline number.

Pine Ridge Estates sits inland in Naples, bounded by Vanderbilt Beach Road to the north, Pine Ridge Road to the south, US 41 to the west and Goodlette-Frank Road to the east.
The thing to notice on the map is lot size. Compare the parcels here with the streets immediately west of US 41 and the difference is obvious: this is acreage, laid out when land east of the highway was still inexpensive.
Across US 41 to the west is Pelican Bay, which stands between the neighborhood and the Gulf. Pine Ridge Road along the southern edge is a commercial corridor rather than part of the neighborhood.
Pine Ridge Estates suits a buyer who wants land and privacy within a few minutes of the coast, and who is not paying a premium for beach frontage they will use twice a month. It is the closest thing in central Naples to an estate lot without a gate or a club attached.
It is the wrong choice if you want to walk to the water, which is Coquina Sands or Park Shore, or if you want a boat behind the house, which is The Moorings or Aqualane Shores. It is also the wrong choice for anyone who wants amenities included, since there is no association here providing them.

Owners weighing a sale should start with a Naples home value estimate, and read the 92% sold-to-list figure above before setting an asking price.

Sixteen homes sold between January and August 2026 at a median of $4,225,000, with the middle half between $3.24 million and $5.79 million. Median size was 4,927 square feet at $987 per square foot. Asking prices currently run far higher, at a median of about $10 million.
No. It is an open neighborhood with no gates and no guardhouse, which distinguishes it from most acreage communities in North Naples. The streets are residential and carry no through traffic, so it is quiet without being controlled.
Lot size is the reason people buy here. Parcels are substantially larger than the coastal neighborhoods west of US 41, which is what allows the tennis courts, guest houses and long private drives you see on the larger properties. Confirm the exact acreage for any specific parcel, since it varies across the neighborhood.
No. The neighborhood is inland, east of US 41, and the Gulf beaches are a drive rather than a walk. Buyers who want to walk to the sand should look at Park Shore or Coquina Sands instead.
