The Homes & Style
Hampton Glen is an upper-tier Southside community. Recent listings averaged around $519,000, with a range from the low $400,000s to the $600,000s depending on the home, the size, and the lot.
For county context, the NEFAR April 2026 report put the Duval County median single-family price at about $332,500, a county-wide figure. Hampton Glen prices well above that, reflecting the larger homes and the deep amenities.
Hampton Glen is a single-family community, so the variation is mostly in floor plan, home size, and whether a home backs to a pond or preserve.
Homes are single-family houses from the 1990s onward in a range of sizes, built around the central clubhouse and amenities.
Homes that back to a pond or preserve carry a premium over interior lots for the view and the added privacy.
Living Here
Hampton Glen carries one of the deeper amenity packages among Southside single-family communities.
The community offers two swimming pools, two tennis courts, new pickleball courts, a basketball court, volleyball, and a gym, around the central clubhouse.
The central clubhouse and a playground anchor community life, giving the neighborhood its country-club feel without a mandatory membership.
The St. Johns Town Center sits about 10 minutes away with big-box and upscale shopping and dining, and the Baymeadows and Deerwood corridors add everyday grocery and retail minutes from the community.
Hampton Glen's deep amenity package is funded by the HOA dues. Confirm the dues and what they cover so you know the full carrying cost.
On homes from the 1990s and 2000s, confirm the roof age, since it drives the insurance quote.
Before You Offer
On 1990s-onward homes, lead with roof year and the age of the HVAC, water heater, and major systems, because they drive both the insurance quote and your first-years budget. Get a real wind and flood quote for the specific parcel; the Southside generally prices manageably inland, but pond- and preserve-adjacent lots warrant a parcel-level FEMA check. Confirm the HOA amount and exactly what the clubhouse, pools, courts, and gym cost to maintain, and verify there is no CDD on the parcel as a matter of course. Confirm internet service and the current leasing rules before you underwrite any rental use. The amenities are HOA-funded, so there is no separate club membership to budget.
Comparisons
Against Hampton Park, the gated Baymeadows community a few minutes away, Hampton Glen offers a comparable amenity package and central Southside location, with Hampton Park countering with a gate and larger early-2000s homes; the choice often comes down to the specific home and lot. Against the higher-end Deerwood and Deercreek addresses, Hampton Glen trades the private-golf prestige for a lower price and an HOA-funded amenity campus with no club dues. Against the open Baymeadows neighborhoods nearby, it counters with the clubhouse, pools, and courts, and asks the premium that an amenity community carries over a plain subdivision. We compare them on the real HOA lines and lot-matched comps, not the listing photos.
Who It Fits
Hampton Glen fits buyers who want an amenity-rich, established single-family community in a central Southside location near the Town Center, UNF, and the Mayo corridor, who value two pools, tennis, pickleball, a gym, and a clubhouse without a mandatory club membership, and who will budget the upkeep of a 1990s-onward home honestly. It is the wrong fit for buyers who want new construction with a builder warranty, who want the lowest possible price or HOA, who need a gated address specifically, or who are not prepared to update roofs and systems on an established home.
