As of November 2026, the MLS records 79 closed sales in Katherine Abbey in Jacksonville, FL since 2011, the most recent in September 2026. Recorded prices since 2024 ran from $240,000 to $365,000 (median $325,000), on homes of 1,432 to 2,354 sq ft. Across Jacksonville as a whole, 12,696 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $304,990, 42 median days on market, with 4,127 homes for sale today. At that median and Duval County's FY2025-26 rate of 17.86 mills, annual property tax runs about $5,810 ($5,070 with the full homestead exemption).

Katherine Abbey is a small, established pocket in Jacksonville — 142 homes built between 1995 and 2001, with a median year built of 1999 and a median living area of 1,981 square feet. The median sale price sits at $269,900, or $188.48 per square foot, which puts this squarely in the resale-value tier of Duval County rather than new-construction territory. Only 3 closings fed the most recent window, so treat any single data point here as directional, not definitive — this is a thin-volume community, not a high-turnover subdivision.
The headline number to sit with is the -18.1% year-over-year move, a real pullback from where pricing was a year ago. Zoom out, though, and the community is still up 160% since 2012, so the long arc remains firmly positive even with this year's softness. With zero active listings right now and a 7-day median days-on-market when homes do trade, this reads as a market where supply is the constraint, not demand — sellers who do list are moving quickly. A market heat score of 49 confirms a balanced, unhurried posture rather than a bidding-war environment.

The 60-Second Overview
A 142-home community in Jacksonville (Duval County) built out mostly from 1995 to 2001, with a pool as its noted shared amenity and a 69.7% homestead share — a strong signal that most owners here claim it as a primary residence rather than a rental or investment hold.
realMLS (Northeast Florida) sales records identify 77 homes in Katherine Abbey that have changed hands since 2001, built between 1995 and 2001 (median 1999), with a median living area of about 1,770 sq ft and a typical 3-bedroom, 2-bath layout; 95% are single-family homes.

Who Katherine Abbey is best for.
Best for
- Buyers targeting a home near the $269,900 median who are ready to move fast once something lists, given the 7-day median days-on-market.
- Buyers who value an established, largely owner-occupied setting — the 69.7% homestead share signals long-term residency over investment turnover.
- Buyers comfortable with resale-era construction (1995–2001) and a straightforward, pool-amenity community rather than new-build finishes.
Probably not for
- Buyers who want to compare several active listings before choosing — there are currently zero active listings to shop.
- Buyers relying on a large, recent sales history to validate pricing — the window here is just 3 closings.
- Buyers seeking new-construction size or finishes; the median living area here is 1,981 square feet in homes built two-plus decades ago.

The Katherine Abbey buying strategy.
If we were buying in Katherine Abbey 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 Katherine Abbey.
A tight, owner-held pocket with almost no current inventory
With zero active listings and only 3 closings in the recent window, Katherine Abbey is not a community where you browse a wide set of comparable homes — it's one where you watch for the next listing to appear and move on it. The 7-day median days-on-market backs that up: when something does come to market here, it does not sit. That combination of thin supply and fast absorption is exactly what you'd expect from a homestead share of 69.7%, meaning the large majority of the 142 homes are owner-occupied primary residences rather than churn-prone rental or flip inventory.
On price, the median of $269,900 ($188.48 per square foot) reflects homes built between 1995 and 2001 with a median size of 1,981 square feet — established construction, not new-build premiums. The -18.1% year-over-year figure is worth taking seriously as a near-term signal, but it should be read against the 160% gain since 2012: this is a community that has appreciated substantially over the long run and is now digesting a softer stretch, not one in structural decline. A market heat score of 49 puts it in balanced territory — no frenzy, no distress.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Katherine Abbey. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
A community with zero active listings and just 3 recent closings is not one you can research from a portal search — you need someone tracking it directly so you hear about a listing the moment it's coming, not after it's already under contract in 7 days. Momentum works Duval County closely enough to flag Katherine Abbey activity early, put the median price of $269,900 and per-square-foot figure of $188.48 in proper context against the -18.1% year-over-year move and the 160% run since 2012, and help you read the pool amenity and homestead makeup for what they actually mean for resale and livability — verified against the HOA rather than assumed from a listing sheet.

JEA advances about $690 million in infrastructure projects including Fulton Cut transmission line raise near JAXPORT
