As of October 2026, Moncrief Gardens in Jacksonville, FL has 1 home for sale. As of October 2026, the MLS records 20 closed sales in Moncrief Gardens in Jacksonville, FL since 2002, the most recent in September 2023. Across Jacksonville as a whole, 8,268 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $311,134, 43 median days on market, with 2,422 homes for sale today. At that median and Duval County's FY2025-26 rate of 17.86 mills, annual property tax runs about $5,560 ($4,820 with the full homestead exemption).
Moncrief Gardens is a small, older pocket of Jacksonville housing stock, and what sets value here is condition more than location premium. Homes were built anywhere from 1931 to 2023, so you are comparing a nearly century-wide span of construction eras within the same 50-home set, and the typical unit runs a modest 1,381.5 square feet. That spread means two homes on the same block can have very different systems, finishes, and rehab needs, and pricing has to be worked out property by property rather than assumed from a neighborhood average.
Right now there is exactly one active listing and zero closings recorded in the current window, out of 50 total homes in the community. That is a market with almost no live price discovery. A seller here cannot lean on recent comps because there are none to lean on, and a buyer cannot assume competitive pressure exists just because inventory is scarce. This is a community where you negotiate off the property itself, not off the market's momentum.

Moncrief Gardens is a 50-home community in Jacksonville, Duval County, with construction dating from 1931 to 2023 and a median living area of 1,381.5 square feet.

Who Moncrief Gardens is best for.
Best for
- A buyer targeting one specific home here and willing to do individual-property diligence rather than lean on neighborhood comps.
- An investor comfortable in a market where homestead-exemption data suggests a notable share of non-owner-occupied ownership already.
- A buyer open to a home anywhere across a build range from 1931 to 2023, prioritizing the house itself over a uniform community profile.
Probably not for
- A buyer who wants several active listings to compare before deciding.
- A buyer relying on recent closed sales to validate an offer price, since none are recorded in the current window.
- A buyer seeking a community with established shared amenities, since none are currently identified from MLS listings.

The Moncrief Gardens buying strategy.
If we were buying in Moncrief Gardens 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 Moncrief Gardens.
A thin, condition-driven pocket
With only 50 homes total, Moncrief Gardens is not a community where you can rely on volume-based trends. The build-year range runs from 1931 to 2023, and the median year built sits at 1959.5 — meaning the community is anchored by a mid-century core with newer infill or rebuilds mixed in. That combination means due diligence has to focus on the individual home's age, updates, and systems rather than a neighborhood-wide expectation of what 'typical' looks like.
The homestead share of 44.6% is worth sitting with. It suggests that more than half the homes in Moncrief Gardens are not claimed as a primary residence under Florida's homestead exemption, which typically points toward a higher concentration of rental or investment ownership than in a fully owner-occupied community. No community amenities are cataloged in current MLS listings, so any appeal here is about the individual home and lot, not a shared amenity package.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Moncrief Gardens. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.

Momentum agents track Northeast Florida inventory at the parcel level, including off-market activity and ownership patterns like homestead filings, so a buyer or seller in Moncrief Gardens gets a real read on value instead of a guess built on a single comp — or none at all.
