Hampton Chase
Homes for Sale in Jacksonville, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
Hampton Chase is a small resale pocket in Duval County — 46 homes built between 1987 and 1989, with a median size of 1,624 square feet. At a median price of $340,000 and $238.10 per square foot, the numbers here are driven almost entirely by the age and condition of the housing stock rather than any added amenity package; current MLS listings show no identified community amenities, so buyers are paying for the home and the location, not a clubhouse or gate.
The current posture is fast. Median days on market sits at 7, and prices have climbed 356% since 2012 — a long, steady run that has outpaced simple inflation. For sellers, that combination supports confident pricing. For buyers, it means the window to act on a well-priced listing is short, and lowball offers rarely have time to work.
Figures in this note are as of July 15, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.
The 60-Second Overview
Hampton Chase is a compact resale community of 46 homes in Duval County, built between 1987 and 1989, where homestead filings cover just over half of the parcels — a signal of a market that mixes owner-occupants with a meaningful share of non-homestead ownership.

Who Hampton Chase is best for.
Best for
- Buyers who want an established, no-added-amenity home near Jacksonville and are ready to move quickly on a well-priced listing.
- Investors evaluating a small, consistent-vintage pocket where roughly half of parcels are already non-homestead.
- Sellers who want to price against a well-documented, long-run appreciation trend rather than guess at value.
Probably not for
- Buyers who want a bundled amenity package like a pool or clubhouse built into the price.
- Buyers who need weeks to decide — a 7-day median time on market leaves little room to deliberate.
- Buyers set on new construction — every home here was built in the same narrow 1987-to-1989 window.

The Hampton Chase buying strategy.
If we were buying in Hampton Chase 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 Hampton Chase.
A Small, Consistent Corner of Duval
Only 46 homes make up Hampton Chase, all built between 1987 and 1989 with a median build year of 1988. That narrow construction window means the housing stock is unusually consistent in age and layout — the median living area runs 1,624 square feet, and at a median $238.10 per square foot, pricing tracks closely with condition and updates rather than size or vintage variation.
Homestead exemptions are filed on 52.2% of parcels, meaning close to half the community is held as non-homestead property — a mix of investment ownership, second homes, or recent purchases that haven't yet filed. Momentum's current MLS review found no identified community amenities tied to Hampton Chase, so the value proposition here is the home itself and its location in Jacksonville, not a shared pool or clubhouse.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Hampton Chase. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
