Price here is set by the building itself, not the block. Lem Turner Park's 171 homes span construction from 1912 to 2023, with a median build year of 1948 and a median size of 1,262 square feet. At a median price of $115,000 and a median $60.91 per square foot, this is one of the more affordable entry points into Duval County — and the gap between a home that has been updated and one that has not shows up directly in the number a seller can ask.
The current posture is thin and balanced rather than hot. There is a single active listing right now, median days on market ran 63, and months of supply sits at 4.0 — a market heat score of 30 reflects that lower-pressure read. With so little on the market at once, comparable sales from the trailing three months matter more here than in most other communities, and both buyers and sellers should lean on recent closings rather than what is currently listed.
The 60-Second Overview
Homes in Lem Turner Park range from builds as early as 1912 to as recent as 2023, with a median build year of 1948 and a median living area of 1,262 square feet — an older, modestly sized housing stock priced at a median of $115,000, well below many other Duval County submarkets.

Who Lem Turner Park is best for.
Best for
- Buyers with a lower price target who want to get into Duval County near the $115,000 median.
- Buyers or investors comfortable taking on a home built well before 1948 and evaluating renovation history property by property.
- Buyers who don't need built-in community amenities and are focused purely on the home and lot.
Probably not for
- Buyers who want a wide pool of active listings to compare — there is currently just 1 on the market.
- Buyers who want a newly built home as the default rather than the exception in a stock spanning 1912 to 2023.
- Buyers relying on shared community amenities, since none are identified from current MLS listings.

The Lem Turner Park buying strategy.
If we were buying in Lem Turner Park 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 Lem Turner Park.
An older stock, priced accordingly
This is a community of 171 homes built over more than a century, from 1912 through 2023, with a median build year of 1948. Median living area runs 1,262 square feet, and the median price of $115,000 works out to $60.91 per square foot — figures that point to a market where renovation status and lot condition, not neighborhood cachet, drive most of the price variation between one listing and the next. Homestead exemptions are filed on 37.6% of homes in the community.
Inventory is exceptionally tight at the moment — just 1 active listing — with a median 63 days on market and 4.0 months of supply, landing the community in a balanced market band with a market heat score of 30. No community amenities are identified from current MLS listings, so buyers evaluating this area are buying the home and the lot, not a shared amenity package. Trailing three months of closings are the more reliable read on where pricing actually sits given how little is active for sale.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Lem Turner Park. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
With only 1 active listing and a housing stock spanning 1912 to 2023, pricing this community accurately means working from closed sales, not what happens to be listed today. Momentum tracks the trailing closings, median price of $115,000, and per-square-foot figures here directly, so sellers price correctly against $60.91 per square foot rather than guessing, and buyers get a clear read on which of the older or newer homes in the 171-home inventory represent real value.
