Jon's Current Read

Melrose Landing Melrose spans homes built from 1950 through 2024, with a median build year of 2001 and a median living area of 1,568 square feet — a mix wide enough that condition and lot, not just square footage, are doing most of the pricing work. The median sale price sits at $265,000, or $177.21 per square foot, and roughly 56.5% of homes carry a homestead exemption, pointing to a market weighted toward long-held, owner-occupied properties rather than fast investment turnover.

Inventory is the story right now: zero active listings against 8 recent closings, a median 51.5 days on market, and prices up 7.1% year-over-year. That combination — nothing currently sitting on the market, values still climbing — tells sellers they hold the leverage, and tells buyers this is not a community where you wait for a shortlist to build. A market heat score of 67 backs that up.

The 60-Second Overview

Melrose Landing Melrose market snapshot (as of July 14, 2026): the median sale price is about $265K ($177 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 52 days on market for closed sales. The trailing-12-month median is up 7% from the prior 12 months, computed from record-level realMLS closed sales (8 closings in the current window).

Melrose Landing Melrose is a community of 230 homes in Hawthorne, Putnam County, built between 1950 and 2024 (median 2001), with a median living area of about 1,568 square feet. 56% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).

Melrose Landing Melrose is a 230-home community in Hawthorne, Putnam County, built out across decades of construction, from 1950 to 2024. Current MLS listings show no defined community amenities, so the draw here is the individual home and lot rather than a shared amenity package.

Best for

  • Buyers targeting a purchase near the $265,000 median who prioritize the home and lot over shared amenities.
  • Buyers comfortable evaluating homes across a wide range of build years, from 1950 to 2024, rather than a single-era product.
  • Sellers looking to list into a market with zero current competition and 7.1% year-over-year price growth.

Probably not for

  • Buyers who want to shop from an active list of homes today — there are zero active listings as of this snapshot.
  • Buyers seeking a defined amenity package, since none is identified in current MLS listings.
  • Buyers unwilling to act within roughly a 51.5-day median window once a home does list.

Price History: What Homes Here Have Actually Sold For

Median sale price over the trailing 12 months ending July 14 of each year, from record-level realMLS closed sales. Same methodology as every appreciation figure on this page: the 2026 point ($265K) IS the median in the snapshot above, and the move from 2025 ($248K) IS the +7.1% one-year change.

Windows contain 0 to 14 sales each (8 in the current window); every figure carries its sample size, and thin markets swing on single closings. Source: Data provided by realMLS. Deemed reliable but not guaranteed.

If we were buying in Melrose Landing Melrose today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.

1

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.

2

Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.

3

Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.

4

Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.

5

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 Melrose Landing Melrose.

Best Buy
Buyers and sellers focused on the individual home and lot rather than a built-in amenity package.
Biggest Risk
With zero active listings, buyers may find nothing available to see or offer on at any given moment.
Sweet Spot
A buyer or seller working near the $265,000 median who can move fast when something does list.
Avoid If
You need a browsable list of homes or built-in community amenities to choose from right now.

A Wide Build Era, A Tight Market

With homes dating from 1950 to 2024 and a median build year of 2001, Melrose Landing Melrose is not a single-era subdivision — a home from the earliest years of the community and one finished in 2024 can sit on the same street. That spread means the median living area of 1,568 square feet and the median price per square foot of $177.21 are averages across very different construction eras, not a uniform product. Buyers should expect the range that comes with that kind of age diversity: differences in systems, finishes, and lot treatment that a single median can't capture.

The current-market numbers are sharper. There are zero active listings as of this snapshot, against 8 closings and a median 51.5 days on market — homes here are transacting, not sitting. Prices are up 7.1% year-over-year, and the market heat score of 67 reflects that combination of thin supply and continued price movement. For a community of 230 homes, that's a small enough pool that a handful of transactions can move the numbers meaningfully.

The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Melrose Landing Melrose. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.

Why work with Momentum here

With zero active listings and no defined community amenities in the MLS record, there's nothing to browse your way into here — finding the right home in Melrose Landing Melrose means knowing the area, tracking what's about to list, and being ready to move inside roughly a 51.5-day window before a home is gone. Momentum works Putnam County listings directly and can help you evaluate a property against the community's real range — homes built anywhere from 1950 to 2024 — rather than against a single median that hides how different those homes actually are.
