As of November 2026, the MLS records 68 closed sales in Leon Terrace in Jacksonville, FL since 2011, the most recent in October 2025. Recorded prices since 2024 ran from $122,000 to $220,000 (median $174,000), on homes of 1,018 to 1,892 sq ft. Across Jacksonville as a whole, 12,683 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $304,990, 43 median days on market, with 4,144 homes for sale today. At that median and Duval County's FY2025-26 rate of 17.86 mills, annual property tax runs about $3,110 ($2,370 with the full homestead exemption).

Price here comes down to two things: the age of the stock and the size of the homes. Leon Terrace's 97 homes were built between 1947 and 1949, with a median year built of 1949, and the median living area is 1,273 square feet. That combination puts the median price at $169,999, working out to $152.82 per square foot. This isn't a market where lot size or a newer roofline commands a premium; it's a market where condition and updates on a compact, mid-century footprint do the talking.
The current posture is thin. There are zero active listings, and the last read on pricing came from just 3 closings, so treat the median as a snapshot rather than a deep trend line. Median days on market sits at 52, and prices are down 19% year over year, even as the community is up 554% since 2012. For a seller, that combination of no active competition and a soft near-term read means pricing has to be built from actual comps, not assumptions. For a buyer, it means patience: there's essentially nothing to see on the market right now, and when something lists, it will move against a small comp set.

The 60-Second Overview
Leon Terrace is a small, 97-home pocket of Jacksonville in Duval County, with homes dating to 1947 or 1949 and a homestead (owner-occupied) share of 63.3%. No community amenities have been identified from current MLS listings, so what draws a buyer here is the home and the lot, not shared facilities.

Who Leon Terrace is best for.
Best for
- Buyers with a limited budget who want the lowest price-per-square-foot entry point and are comfortable planning for updates to a 1947 or 1949 home.
- Buyers or investors comfortable purchasing without an active comp set to shop against, and willing to move quickly if a listing does appear.
- Buyers targeting a compact, roughly 1,273-square-foot footprint rather than a larger newer build.
Probably not for
- Buyers who want a renovated, move-in-ready home with no condition unknowns.
- Buyers who need multiple active listings to compare before making an offer; there are none right now.
- Buyers relying on a large, stable comp set to set price; the current median rests on just 3 closings.

The Leon Terrace buying strategy.
If we were buying in Leon Terrace 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 Leon Terrace.
A Small, Old, Quiet Market
With a median living area of 1,273 square feet and construction dated to 1947 through 1949, Leon Terrace's homes are compact and old relative to typical current-era inventory. The median price of $169,999 and price per square foot of $152.82 reflect that: this is an entry-level price point for the area, and it will move only as the 97-home stock sees meaningful renovation. The homestead share of 63.3% tells you most of these are owner-occupied rather than investor-held, which matters for how quickly homes turn over and how consistently they're maintained.
Trading activity is limited. The median days on market is 52, the market heat score sits at 34, and the entire current pricing picture rests on just 3 closings with zero active listings at the time of this snapshot. That's a market you have to watch closely rather than read off a chart, since small sample sizes swing medians. The longer-run number worth noting is the 554% gain since 2012 against a 19% pullback year over year: a community that has appreciated sharply over time but is showing near-term softness.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Leon Terrace. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
A market built on 3 closings and zero active listings isn't one you can price off a portal estimate. We track Leon Terrace's actual closed comps as they happen, so when a home does list, or when you're ready to sell one of the 97 homes here, the number is grounded in what's really trading, not a stale average. In a compact, mid-century community like this, we also know which condition and update details move the price per square foot toward $152.82 and beyond.
