I have to deal with this frequently with Florida buyers so I will break it down for you.
Did you note the real wood cabinets, the 6" moldings, the granite, the roof, the exterior, the ceiling height? It is the 'small' extras that add up to make the difference.
I know Lutz... you can not buy a new house with these extras for anything less than $500K. In the end, you are still in Lutz.
No offense to your house, but it is a standard cookie cutter 1/3 of acre development house. You have Home Depot Cabinets, 3" moldings, no granite, low ceilings, cheap fans, etc. Your house is a $300k house...
