True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
As of October 2026, the MLS records 50 closed sales in Countryside in Jacksonville, FL since 2001, the most recent in August 2024. Recorded prices across those 49 sales ran from $28,000 to $320,000 (median $152,000), on homes of 938 to 2,204 sq ft. Across Jacksonville as a whole, 8,268 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $311,134, 43 median days on market, with 2,422 homes for sale today. At that median and Duval County's FY2025-26 rate of 17.86 mills, annual property tax runs about $2,720 ($1,980 with the full homestead exemption).
Countryside is an established Jacksonville community where the homes were built between 1985 and 2002, with the median dating to 1988. At that age, price here is driven less by the floor plan and more by condition — updated systems, roofs, kitchens, and baths separate one closing from the next. Expect a wide spread rather than a tight band, and read each listing on its own merits.
With 181 homes and a homestead share of about 74%, this is a settled, owner-occupied pocket rather than a churn-heavy investor market. That tends to keep turnover measured. For buyers, that means patience and a willingness to move on the right updated home; for sellers, it means condition and presentation are what earn the top of the market.

Who Countryside is best for.
Best for
- Buyers targeting an already-updated 1980s-to-early-2000s home who want to move in without a project
- Value-minded buyers willing to take on a dated home and budget for systems and cosmetic updates
- Long-hold owners who want a settled, primarily owner-occupied community over a high-turnover one
Probably not for
- Buyers set on new construction or the latest floor plans and finishes
- Buyers needing significantly more than the roughly 1,724 sq ft median or a large-lot property
- Short-term flippers counting on quick turnover in a low-churn market

The Countryside buying strategy.
If we were buying in Countryside 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 Countryside.
Reading an established build era
The build range of 1985 to 2002 is the single most useful fact here. Homes from this window are past their original systems' lifespan, so the diligence checklist matters: roof age, HVAC, water heater, electrical panel, and whether the kitchen and baths have been touched since the original build. Two homes of similar square footage can price very differently based purely on how much of that work has been done.
At a median of roughly 1,724 square feet, floor plans here sit in a practical middle — enough room to matter without stepping into large-lot or luxury territory. Buyers should shop condition first and square footage second, and sellers who have modernized should document the upgrades rather than leave them to guesswork.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Countryside. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a condition-driven, established community like Countryside, the value question is settled home by home, not by a headline number. We walk the systems, weigh what has been updated against what still looms, and price accordingly — so a buyer does not overpay for deferred work and a seller gets full credit for the work already done.
