Nassau County real estate.
Nassau County is the coastal county at the northern edge of Northeast Florida, defined by Amelia Island and historic Fernandina Beach, with fast-growing Yulee on the mainland. It carries a beach-and-island premium and has been one of the region's fastest-growing areas, as master-planned communities like Wildlight bring new construction to the I-95 corridor.

Nassau County at a glance.
Nassau splits into two stories. Amelia Island and Fernandina Beach are the coastal premium, historic, walkable, resort-adjacent, and priced accordingly. Yulee, on the mainland along US 17 and I-95, is the growth engine, where Wildlight and Tributary are adding master-planned new construction at more accessible prices, pulling families who want Nassau schools and beach access without the island price.
As of the April 2026 NEFAR report, the Nassau median was about $490,250, second only to St. Johns in the region, reflecting the coastal premium. Inventory runs a bit higher than the inland counties at roughly a 4.2-month supply, and the island and mainland markets behave quite differently, so the county median understates the spread.
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Median sale price | $490,250 |
| Median days on market | around 51 days |
| Active inventory | about 480 homes |
| Months of supply | 4.2-month |
| Position in region | The coastal county north of jacksonville |
The communities buyers ask about.
Nassau County is not one market. Here are the communities and areas that draw the most buyer interest, each with a full guide.
Schools.
Nassau County is served by strong Nassau County School District schools. In Northeast Florida, school zoning is one of the biggest drivers of home value, and it varies by address and changes as districts adjust boundaries. Confirm the current assignment for any specific home with the district before you buy. See the Nassau County Schools guide for the district's standing and the schools, and the Northeast Florida school-zone guide for how zones affect prices.
Buying or selling in Nassau County.
A county median is a starting point, not a price. The right number for a specific home or offer comes from recent comparable sales in that exact neighborhood, which is what a local agent provides. Momentum represents buyers and sellers across Nassau County, and works only for you. Call (904) 351-6461 or reach us at jon@movewithmomentum.com.
Market figures come from the Northeast Florida Association of REALTORS (NEFAR) and RealMLS monthly releases, the most recent being April 2026 at publication, updated monthly. County medians describe the whole county and are not a substitute for a comparable-sales analysis of a specific property. Every community linked here has its own guide with prices, schools, HOA and CDD detail, the commute, and the honest trade-offs.
