True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
Over the 12 months ending 2026-09-26, 3 recorded sales closed at a median of $182,000, $210 per square foot, a median 6 days on market, sellers accepting 93% of original asking. At the median price and Duval County's FY2025-26 rate of 17.86 mills, annual property tax runs about $3,250 ($2,520 with the full homestead exemption).
Price in Hamilton Gardens is driven by condition and vintage, not square footage alone. With a median build year of 1949 and homes stretching from 1917 to 2024, the stock is genuinely mixed — original early-century houses sitting near newer infill. That spread is why the median lands at $260,000 while the per-square-foot figure runs near $230: buyers are paying for updated, smaller homes as much as for space. Expect a wide condition-driven range and price each house on its own merits.
The market posture is quick. A median of 15 days on market means well-prepared listings move fast, and buyers should come with financing lined up and a willingness to decide. For sellers, that speed is real but it rewards presentation — in a neighborhood this old, deferred maintenance and dated systems get discovered fast. The closings sample here is thin, so treat these figures as a current read rather than a deep trend.

Who Hamilton Gardens is best for.
Best for
- Buyers around the mid-$200s seeking a compact, established home and ready to act inside a two-week window
- Renovation-minded buyers who want older bones and can budget for systems and updates
- Owner-occupants prioritizing a modest footprint over maximum square footage
Probably not for
- Buyers who want new or near-new construction and modern floor plans throughout
- Buyers needing substantial living space, as the median footprint is compact
- Buyers who want a slow, low-competition process, given the 15-day median pace

The Hamilton Gardens buying strategy.
If we were buying in Hamilton Gardens 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 Hamilton Gardens.
An old-bones neighborhood with new infill
The defining fact here is age variance. A median year built of 1949, with the range running from 1917 to 2024, tells you two things: much of the housing predates modern construction standards, and there has been enough recent building to change what a given block looks like. Median living space is compact at about 1,388 square feet, so this is a market of modest footprints where updates and mechanical condition matter more than raw size.
At a median per-square-foot near $230 against a $260,000 median price, the numbers point to buyers valuing renovated and efficient homes. An owner-occupancy share of 54% suggests a roughly even split between long-term owners and non-owner-held property, which is worth weighing if you care about the stability of a block. Inspect carefully in a neighborhood this old — roof, wiring, plumbing, and foundation history should drive your offer.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Hamilton Gardens. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
