Fairfield sits in the eastern half of Bradenton, close to the Braden River corridor and neighbors like Braden River East and Heritage Harbour. It's a quiet, mostly residential setting where families lean on well-regarded local schools and Tampa stays within reach — roughly 53 minutes to downtown and about an hour to the airport. If you like the practicality of East Bradenton without giving up quick access to the wider Gulf Coast, this is the kind of neighborhood that keeps working for the long haul.
The market here is small and tightly held, which matters when you're planning a move. Right now there is just one active listing at $380,000, while the eight homes sold over the past year closed at a median of $341,250 — and sellers collected about 95% of asking on average. With so little inventory, buyers should be ready to act, but the 47-day median days on market suggests there's still room to negotiate. Compare it against the broader Bradenton homes for sale and nearby Oneco to see where Fairfield fits your budget.
Fairfield is a community in Bradenton, Florida.

Fairfield FAQs
Is Fairfield a good place to live?+
It's a solid choice for buyers who want a calm East Bradenton setting with strong school assignments — Braden River High and Middle plus Tara Elementary. You're close to established neighbors like Heritage Harbour for everyday shopping and dining, with Tampa about 53 minutes north.
Is Fairfield expensive?+
It reads as mid-market for the Bradenton area. The one active listing is priced at $380,000, and the average cost is around $249 per square foot on a median home size of 1,525 square feet, which keeps it accessible compared with waterfront and luxury pockets nearby.
What do homes cost in Fairfield?+
Over the past 12 months, eight homes sold at a median price of $341,250, while the current single listing is asking $380,000. If you want to broaden the search, it's worth comparing prices across Bradenton homes for sale to gauge value.
How is the market right now?+
Inventory is very tight — just one active listing at the moment — so well-priced homes don't linger. That said, the median days on market runs about 47 and sellers are getting roughly 95% of asking, so there's still room for a reasonable negotiation.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
Expect an HOA around $263 per month, which reflects the gated, managed nature of the community. Property taxes run a median of about $5,110 per year, so factor both into your monthly budget alongside the mortgage.
