Cypress Hammock's value is set almost entirely by the housing stock, not a location premium: homes here were built in a tight window, 1986 to 1990, with a median year built of 1989 and a median living area of 1,702 square feet. The median price is $277,450, or roughly $173.83 a square foot, and in an established community like this, condition and updates typically explain more of the spread between listings than square footage or age does.
The current posture is balanced rather than tilted toward either side: 6 months of supply and a median 22 days on market put this squarely in normal-market territory, not a bidding-war environment. With only 3 active listings against a base of 161 homes, a buyer who finds the right one should not expect a deep pool of comparable options to wait on, and a seller pricing at or near the recent median should expect a reasonably orderly sale rather than an unusually fast or slow one.
Figures in this note are as of July 14, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.
Cypress Hammock right now
🟢 Buyer-leaning market. 15.0 months of supply and 0% of the inventory already under contract give buyers above-average negotiating leverage.Why it matters: months of supply is how long today's inventory would last at today's sales pace; under-contract share is the portion of homes for sale that already have a buyer.Momentum Research analysis of realMLS records, as of October 18, 2026. Confidence: Medium (5 active and pending listings, 4 closed sales in 12 months).
🟢 Still climbing. The trailing-12-month median ($282K) is up 13.5% from the prior 12 months ($249K) and up 315% since 2012.

The 60-Second Overview
Cypress Hammock market snapshot (as of October 18, 2026): the median sale price is about $282K ($174 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), a median 22 days on market for closed sales, and 15.0 months of supply, a buyer-leaning market.

Cypress Hammock is a community of 161 homes in Jacksonville, Duval County, built between 1986 and 1990 (median 1989), with a median living area of about 1,702 square feet. 68% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).
Cypress Hammock is a Duval County community of 161 homes, built almost entirely between 1986 and 1990, so most of what separates one listing from another is renovation history rather than floor plan or age. Pricing has moved up substantially since 2012, but on a small base of active listings, so month-to-month swings can look larger than the underlying market really is.

Who Cypress Hammock is best for.
Best for
- A buyer with a budget set near the community's median price who is prepared to weigh condition and update history over square footage or age.
- A buyer comfortable making a decisive offer when a well-priced home appears, given the small pool of active listings.
- A seller aiming for a straightforward, moderately paced sale rather than a rapid bidding scenario, given the balanced market posture.
Probably not for
- A buyer who wants to compare many active listings side by side before deciding — current inventory will not support that.
- A buyer relying on new-construction features or floor plans, since homes here were built in a narrow 1986-1990 window.
- A buyer expecting a published automated home-value number to set their offer — that is not how pricing is handled here.

The Cypress Hammock buying strategy.
If we were buying in Cypress Hammock today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.
Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.
Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.
Use your leverage. With inventory sitting, there is room to negotiate on anything dated or overpriced and to ask for repairs or a rate buydown.
Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.
Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in Cypress Hammock.
Cypress Hammock: Reading the Long Run
Zoom out and the number that matters most is the long-run one: median price in Cypress Hammock is up 308% since 2012. That reflects over a decade of compounding in an established Jacksonville community, not a recent spike, and it says more about how long current pricing has had to build than about what a buyer should expect month to month. This snapshot uses a trailing 6-month closings window, which keeps the median price and days-on-market figures current without letting a single unusually quiet or busy month distort them.
Homestead exemptions are recorded on roughly 68% of homes here, meaning owner-occupancy is the dominant ownership pattern rather than investor or rental turnover — a detail that matters for a buyer trying to gauge how often, and why, homes in Cypress Hammock actually come up for sale. No community amenities were identified from current MLS listings, so any clubhouse, pool, or shared-space appeal needs to be confirmed listing by listing rather than assumed community-wide.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Cypress Hammock. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.

Why work with Momentum here
With only 3 active listings across 161 homes, this is a market where a single newly listed or overlooked property can be the difference between a good outcome and a missed one, and Momentum tracks Cypress Hammock inventory closely enough to flag it the day it moves.
