Meadowlakes is a tight, already-built-out pocket of Duval County: 152 homes, all built between 1987 and 1991, with a median year built of 1989 and a median living area of 1,609 square feet. That narrow build window is the real price driver here — you're not paying for variation in size or era, you're paying for condition, lot, and how well a given owner has maintained or updated a home from that same generation. The current median sits at $320,000, which works out to $226.68 per square foot, a figure that tells you more about finish level than it does about square footage once you're inside this community.
Right now there are zero active listings in Meadowlakes, and recent sales that did close moved in a median of 17 days. That combination — no available inventory, fast turnover when something does list — means a buyer with real interest here needs to be ready to move the moment a home comes to market, and a seller isn't fighting a crowded field. Pricing decisions on either side should be anchored to the $226.68 per-square-foot figure rather than guesswork, since there is no active-listing set to compare against.
Figures in this note are as of July 15, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.
Meadowlakes right now
🟡 Balanced market. 4.0 months of supply and 0% of the inventory already under contract put buyers and sellers on roughly even footing.Why it matters: months of supply is how long today's inventory would last at today's sales pace; under-contract share is the portion of homes for sale that already have a buyer.Momentum Research analysis of realMLS records, as of November 12, 2026. Confidence: Low (1 active and pending listings, 3 closed sales in 12 months).
🔴 Off the recent peak. The trailing-12-month median ($315K) is down 8.7% from the prior 12 months ($345K) and up 215% since 2012. With about 3 sales a year, a single closing can swing this number, so read the level and the decade, not one year's move.Momentum Research, record-level realMLS closed sales, 12-month windows ending November 12.

Who Meadowlakes is best for.
Best for
- A buyer targeting a purchase near the $320,000 median who wants an established, single-era housing stock rather than new construction.
- A buyer comfortable moving quickly — within roughly the community's 17-day closing pace — once a home does list.
- A buyer who values a compact, 1,609-square-foot-median floor plan and is budgeting for updates rather than paying for an amenity package.
Probably not for
- A buyer who needs to compare multiple active listings before committing — there are none in Meadowlakes right now.
- A buyer specifically shopping for a builder-amenity community, since no community amenities are identified from current listing data.
- A buyer with a strict minimum-square-footage target well above the 1,609-square-foot median this community typically offers.

The Meadowlakes buying strategy.
If we were buying in Meadowlakes 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 Meadowlakes.
A Community Defined by Its Build Window
With every home in Meadowlakes dating to a stretch between 1987 and 1991, and a median year built of 1989, the community reads as a single, consistent generation of construction rather than a mix of eras. At a median 1,609 square feet, homes here run on the modest side, which keeps the per-square-foot conversation — $226.68 at the current median — centered on updates, systems, and layout rather than dramatic differences in footprint from one listing to the next.
The ownership pattern backs this up: 63.8% of homes in Meadowlakes carry a homestead exemption, pointing to a high share of owner-occupied primary residences rather than frequent investor or rental turnover. Community amenities are not identified from current MLS listing data, so buyers should treat this as a housing-stock-and-location purchase rather than an amenity-package purchase, and confirm any shared features directly rather than assuming them from the listing sheet.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Meadowlakes. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Momentum Buy Score.
Our proprietary 0 to 10 read across the factors that decide how a home in Meadowlakes buys, holds, and resells. Momentum Research; not an appraisal.
Momentum Intelligence Scores are our proprietary, qualitative assessment on a 0 to 10 scale, built from the record-level market data on this page. They are a framework for comparing communities, not a guarantee of future value and not advice on a specific home; unlike an automated value estimate they do not price your home, they grade the community on evidence you can inspect. Composite is the plain average of the 5 factors (7.0). Basis: Long-Term Appreciation +215% since 2012; Recent Direction -8.7% year-over-year; Liquidity & Demand 4.0 months of supply; Owner Commitment 64% owner-occupied; Pricing Power 97.8% sale-to-list. Refreshed with each data update.
Why work with Momentum here
With active listings at zero, Meadowlakes is a community where most of the opportunity happens before a home ever hits the public market — which means the value of an agent who is already tracking this specific 152-home pocket, and who can price against the $226.68 per-square-foot benchmark instead of an inflated asking figure, goes up rather than down. Momentum's role here is to get a buyer in front of the next listing fast, in a market where 17 days is the current pace, and to keep a seller's pricing grounded in what the last closings actually supported.
