Ashton Hills is a tight pocket of 109 homes built between 1997 and 1999, with a median year built of 1998 and a median living area of 2,056 square feet. That consistency in age and size is what anchors pricing here: the median sale sits at $430,000, working out to $231.81 per square foot — a figure that moves mostly with condition and updates rather than lot size or floor plan, since most homes share a similar footprint and construction era.
With only 2 active listings against 8.0 months of supply, this reads as a buyer-leaning market on paper, but the real story is scarcity — there simply isn't much to choose from at any given time. Homes are taking a median of 42 days to sell, and about 69.7% of properties carry a homestead exemption, pointing to a community where most owners hold the property as their primary residence rather than cycling it as a rental. For sellers, the thin active count is leverage; for buyers, it means patience and a fast, decisive offer when the right listing appears.
Figures in this note are as of July 15, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.

Ashton Hills market snapshot (as of October 23, 2026): the median sale price is about $414K ($238 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 28 days on market for closed sales.

Who Ashton Hills is best for.
Best for
- Buyers focused on a single, consistent construction era rather than a mix of home vintages.
- Buyers comfortable moving quickly once a rare listing appears, given the thin active inventory.
- Long-term owner-occupants, in line with the community's high homestead-exemption share.
Probably not for
- Buyers who want a large pool of active listings to compare before deciding.
- Investors seeking a high-turnover rental market rather than a mostly owner-occupied one.
- Buyers on a tight timeline who can't wait out months of limited supply.

The Ashton Hills buying strategy.
If we were buying in Ashton Hills 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 Ashton Hills.
A small, steady pocket of Duval County
Every home in Ashton Hills was built between 1997 and 1999, which gives the community unusual consistency for a Duval County neighborhood of this size. With just 109 homes total, inventory here is inherently thin — the 2 active listings on record reflect that scarcity, not weak demand. The 8.0 months of supply puts this in buyer-leaning territory by the numbers, though in a community this small, a handful of listings can swing that ratio quickly.
Pricing centers on a $430,000 median, or $231.81 per square foot against a median home size of 2,056 square feet. The 178% appreciation since 2012 shows the long-run trajectory, but with a median 42 days on market and a market heat score of 18, the current pace is measured rather than frenetic. Reported amenities are limited to off-site management, so buyers should confirm current HOA services and access directly with the association rather than assume amenities beyond what's on file.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Ashton Hills. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
