As of October 2026, the MLS records 24 closed sales in Fairmont Addition in Jacksonville, FL since 2002, the most recent in April 2026. Across Jacksonville as a whole, 7,643 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $315,000, 43 median days on market, with 4,168 homes for sale today. At that median and Duval County's FY2025-26 rate of 17.86 mills, annual property tax runs about $5,630 ($4,890 with the full homestead exemption).
Price in Fairmont Addition is driven by condition and scope of work, not by a uniform product. With homes dating from 1940 to 2023 and a median build around 1981, you are looking at a genuine mix — original mid-century stock, later infill, and recent new construction sitting on the same streets. That range means two homes of similar size can trade very differently depending on how much has been updated.
The median living area sits near 2,169 square feet, which is real space by Jacksonville standards, and about 80% of homes here carry a homestead exemption. That high owner-occupied share tends to keep turnover measured and inventory tight. For a buyer, that means being ready to move on the right updated home; for a seller, it means condition and presentation do the heavy lifting on price.
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
Fairmont Addition is a small, established Jacksonville pocket of 92 homes where an eight-decade span of construction and a high owner-occupied share define the character more than any single price point.

Who Fairmont is best for.
Best for
- Buyers seeking a move-in-ready home around the median size who can act quickly when one lists
- Renovation-minded buyers comfortable taking on an older home and pricing in the work
- Long-term owner-occupants who value an established, low-turnover street over a large master-planned build
Probably not for
- Buyers who want a large, always-available selection of nearly identical homes
- Buyers unwilling to budget for updates or thorough inspections on older stock
- Short-horizon buyers counting on quick resale in a tight, slow-turnover market

The Fairmont buying strategy.
If we were buying in Fairmont 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 Fairmont.
A mixed-vintage street, not a subdivision
The 1940–2023 build range is the single most important fact here. This is not a cookie-cutter community; it is a neighborhood that has been filled in over generations, with a median build year around 1981 marking the rough midpoint between old and new. Expect to evaluate each home on its own — systems, roof, and updates matter far more than the address alone.
At roughly 2,169 square feet of living area at the median, the housing stock leans toward usable, full-size homes rather than starter footprints. Combine that with a homestead share near 80%, and you get a community where homes are lived in and held rather than churned. Available listings tend to be limited, so serious buyers should be prepared to act when a well-kept home comes up.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Fairmont. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
A neighborhood this varied rewards someone who reads each home individually. We help buyers separate a cosmetically refreshed listing from a fully updated one, and we help sellers price against the specific condition tier they are actually in — not a neighborhood average that blends a 1940 cottage with a 2023 build.
