What sets price in Albermarle Park is condition, not square footage. With a median build year of 1959 and a housing stock that runs all the way from 1922 to 2024, two homes on the same block can trade very differently depending on what has been touched — roof, systems, kitchens, foundations. This is a market where the inspection report does the pricing, so expect a wide spread and read every listing on its own terms.
The ownership pattern here is worth noting: with homestead exemptions on well under a third of the homes, a meaningful share of this stock is held as rental or non-primary property. For a seller, that means your competition isn't uniform. For a buyer, it means you'll see a mix of well-maintained owner homes and investor-held product, and the difference shows up in condition. Underwrite carefully and don't assume the median tells you what any single house is worth.
Figures in this note are as of July 12, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.
The 60-Second Overview
Albermarle Park is a small, older Jacksonville pocket of roughly 75 homes in Duval County where the housing dates back a century in places and continues up to new construction — a genuine mixed-vintage streetscape rather than a single-era subdivision.
Pre-construction details are compiled from public records, builder announcements and builder listings, and are subject to change without notice; figures are deemed reliable but not guaranteed.

The Albermarle Park buying strategy.
If we were buying in Albermarle Park 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.
Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.
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 Albermarle Park.
A mixed-vintage pocket where condition is everything
The median home here sits around 1,684 square feet — modest, walkable-scale housing rather than sprawling floor plans. Because the build-year range spans 1922 to 2024, you're shopping across true early-20th-century construction, mid-century homes clustered near the 1959 median, and the occasional recent infill build. Each vintage carries its own maintenance profile, and older stock often means original systems worth budgeting around.
This is a market that rewards diligence over speed. A renovated home and an original one can look superficially similar in a listing photo and price worlds apart in reality. Bring a contractor's eye, price the deferred work honestly, and treat the median as a midpoint in a broad distribution — not a going rate.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Albermarle Park. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a small, condition-driven pocket like this, comps are thin and every house is its own negotiation. We read the age and system reality of each property, tell you where the renovation dollars really need to go, and price against the specific vintage in front of you rather than a blended neighborhood average.
