About this home
Owner financing available! Located in the heart of Jacksonville's vibrant Riverside Avondale Historic District, this versatile mixed-use property at 1250 McDuff Avenue South offers a rare opportunity to live, work, or invest in one of the city's most walkable and sought-after neighborhoods. The first-floor commercial space spans approximately 1,800 square feet and allows a wide range of uses by right, including medical or professional office, retail sales, service establishments, and restaurant use--making it ideal for owner-operators or investors seeking flexible income potential.
Commercial Neighborhood zoning is scarce in Riverside Avondale, with only three small areas--less than 35 properties total--making this a highly desirable location to operate a business. Upstairs, the residential unit is a charming 2-bedroom, 1 bathroom apartment of roughly 1,100 square feet, featuring hardwood floors and a charming midcentury bathroom that adds character and warmth. The layout is well suited for an owner-occupant, employee housing, or long-term rental.
The location creates for a high rental value as it is within walking distance to the Avondale and King Street Shopping Districts, the Riverside Community Garden, Willowbranch Park, and the St. Johns River. The commercial space was leased to long-term tenants at below-market rents, presenting clear upside for future value.
Whether you envision a live/work setup, renting one space to offset expenses, or utilizing the full space for one commercial use, the options here are compelling. While located within the historic district, the building itself is not a contributing structure, offering added flexibility for future use. Take advantage of this rare opportunity for a mixed-use property in one of the most desirable neighborhoods in Jacksonville.
NOTE: This property is also listed under Commercial MLS #2129365 and Residential Income MLS #2129340

Property taxes
✓ Certified county tax rollProperty taxes in Florida are reassessed after a sale, so a buyer’s first full-year bill can be higher than the seller’s. Budget from this estimate, not the current bill, before you make an offer.
Most of this comes from Florida’s Save Our Homes assessment cap resetting when the home sells — the current owner’s protected assessment does not transfer to a new buyer.
Certified 2025 tax roll values for this parcel (Florida DOR). The roll gives values, not the bill; the current owner’s bill above is estimated from the taxable value.

What it really costs to own 1250 Mcduff Avenue
The parts of the monthly number a mortgage calculator leaves out, from this listing's MLS record, the county tax roll, Citizens and FEMA. Property facts only.
| Property tax | The current owner's bill is about $2,950/yr (certified county roll, taxable value × millage). Buy at the asking price of $599,000 and the first-year bill resets to about $9,800/yr (the parcel is matched to the certified roll; asking price less the $50,000 homestead exemption × 17.86 mills); Save Our Homes caps later increases at 3%/yr. |
|---|---|
| HOA dues | The listing states there is no HOA. |
| Home and flood insurance | The average Citizens Property Insurance premium in Duval County is $1,315/yr (2,001 policies, Citizens detail by county, April 2026); private-market quotes differ by roof age, wind mitigation and distance to the coast. The page's modeled range for this home is $2,500–$5,500/yr; neither is a quote. Flood: this address maps to FEMA zone X, outside the high-risk zone; flood insurance is optional but most lenders and insurers recommend it. Statewide, a zone X flood policy runs about $500–$700/yr (FEMA Risk Rating 2.0 averages, not a quote). |
| Roof and age | Built in 1949. An original roof would be about 77 years old; under Florida's 2022 reform (SB 2-D) carriers may require an inspection past 15 years, so budget for a roof report and ask for the roof permit date. |
Estimated carrying cost at the asking price, before the mortgage: about $926/month (tax $817, insurance $110). An estimate from the sources above, not a quote; the monthly-cost calculator on this page adds the loan.
Flood zone & elevation

From the FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer. In this zone lender-required flood insurance is generally not mandated; confirm for the parcel.

Building permits
Comparable recent sales
6 closed sales in Avondale in the last 18 months — same property type, living area within 30% of this home. Sold prices are MLS closed-sale records, deemed reliable but not guaranteed.
Median of these 6 sales: $655,000 ($318/sq ft). Stronger local evidence. Shown for general reference only — not an appraisal or a statement of this home’s value.
The Messtimate
Our automated estimate of the likely sale-price range for this home — modeled from recent closed sales nearby adjusted to today's market, a local size-and-age model, and the county tax roll. It is an estimate, not an appraisal, not market value, and not an offer. A licensed agent's CMA sees the condition, the lot, and the live market that a model can't.
Strong local evidence — built from 6 comparable closed sales in Avondale (same property type, closed within the last 18 months, each adjusted to today's market); the Duval County 2025 tax roll just value ($165,367) × the local sale-to-roll ratio of 40 nearby sales.
Track record: across 2,975 recent closed sales we scored, the closed price landed inside the Messtimate range 57% of the time; median miss 9.6% (closed sales statewide, FL + GA feeds that permit an automated estimate). Re-scored weekly; last 2026-10-14.
Actual list price: $599,000 ($214/sq ft) — the seller's asking price is not an input to this range; compare the two.
A 32% spread on the same house — here is what a model can't see:
- Condition & updates — a 1949 home may have had its roof, kitchen, or HVAC replaced since, or not; the model can't see either.
- The lot & views — a premium golf, water, or preserve lot vs. a road-facing one.
- Carrying costs & concessions — insurance, CDD/HOA and seller-paid buydowns change what a buyer actually pays.
And what the live market is doing right now:
- This home: 195 days on market vs. a 60-day community median
- 998 active listings competing, 322 under contract
- ≈2.5 months of supply

Buyer research checklist
Items worth confirming for 1250 MCDUFF Avenue, chosen from what the record shows. This is general guidance, not advice about this specific property.
- Built in 1949 (77 years): ask for the roof and HVAC replacement dates — insurers commonly ask for roof age on homes this old, and it changes the premium.
- The listing reports no HOA: confirm with the county record that no deed restrictions or mandatory association apply to this parcel.
- FEMA flood zone X: flood insurance is not usually required, but get a quote anyway — FEMA reports roughly one in four flood claims come from outside high-risk zones.
- Get a homeowners insurance quote for this specific address in Duval County; a wind-mitigation inspection and, on older homes, a four-point inspection can change the premium.
- Listed living area is 2,800 sq ft: verify it against the property appraiser's record and measure before relying on it.
- Order a survey to confirm lot boundaries and easements.
- Review permit history with the county.
- Property taxes: the estimate on this page (about $9,800/yr) assumes reassessment at the list price less the homestead exemption. Estimated buyer taxes are about $6,850 more per year than the current owner’s estimated bill (+232%). Exemptions and portability change the actual bill — confirm with the county property appraiser.
- Confirm school zoning directly with the district.

Frequently asked questions
How big is 1250 MCDUFF Avenue and when was it built?
Per the listing record, 1250 MCDUFF Avenue was built in 1949 and has 2,800 sq ft of living area, 2 bedrooms and 2.0 bathrooms. Living area and lot size come from the MLS record and should be verified against the county property appraiser.
What community is 1250 MCDUFF Avenue in?
1250 MCDUFF Avenue is in Avondale in Jacksonville, Duval County. The comparable-sales section on this page shows recent closed sales nearby from the same MLS data.
Does 1250 MCDUFF Avenue have an HOA?
The listing reports no HOA. Confirm with the county record that no deed restrictions or mandatory association apply to the parcel.
Why might property taxes on 1250 MCDUFF Avenue differ from the current owner's?
The estimate on this page (about $9,800 per year) assumes reassessment at the list price less the homestead exemption. Estimated buyer taxes are about $6,850 more per year than the current owner’s estimated bill (+232%). Florida reassesses a home after it sells; for a homesteaded seller the Save Our Homes cap on their assessment does not transfer, and a buyer's own exemptions and portability are applied separately, so the two bills usually differ. Any tax figure shown here is an estimate, not the actual bill — confirm with the county property appraiser and tax collector.
Is 1250 MCDUFF Avenue in a flood zone?
The FEMA flood map places this parcel in Zone X, outside the special flood hazard area, so flood insurance is not usually required by a lender. It is still available and worth quoting; confirm the parcel's status with FEMA and your insurer.
Can I rely on the figures on this page?
No. Estimated taxes, insurance, payments, and any market or comparable-sales summary are opinions and estimates for general information only and should not be relied upon. Verify all information independently before making any decision.
