Market Heat
Montevilla is a newer-construction pocket in Jacksonville, with homes built roughly between 2014 and 2020 and a median build year of 2018. That consistency matters: when nearly everything on the market is the same age and finish era, price tends to track condition, upgrades, and lot rather than wild swings in vintage. The median sits at $411,500, around $211 per square foot on a typical living area of about 2,166 square feet. Read price differences here as a story about updates and specific homes, not about one part of the community being fundamentally different from another.
The posture is soft. Prices are down 5.8% year over year, the median home takes just over 37 days to sell, and the heat score of 37 points to a market that favors patient buyers over sellers. For buyers, that means room to inspect, negotiate, and walk away. For sellers, it means pricing to the current market on day one — condition and presentation carry the weight, and the homes that linger are usually the ones priced to last year's number.

Montevilla Jacksonville is a community of 157 homes in Jacksonville, Duval County, built between 2014 and 2020 (median 2018), with a median living area of about 2,166 square feet. 85% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).

Median sale price over the trailing 12 months ending July 11 of each year, from record-level realMLS closed sales. Same methodology as every appreciation figure on this page: the 2026 point ($412K) IS the median in the snapshot above, and the move from 2025 ($437K) IS the -5.8% one-year change.

A newer-build pocket in a soft window
With 157 homes and a build range concentrated in the 2010s, Montevilla reads as a planned, of-a-piece community rather than a patchwork of eras. The high homestead share — about 85% — suggests these are mostly primary residences held by owners rather than a churn of short-term holdings, which tends to keep the housing stock in stable, lived-in condition. That works in a buyer's favor: fewer distressed or deferred-maintenance situations, more homes that show well.
The negotiating leverage right now comes from the numbers moving in one direction. A 5.8% year-over-year decline and a median of just over 37 days on market mean the pressure to overbid is gone. The price spread you see across listings should be interpreted through condition, upgrades, and square footage against that roughly $211-per-foot median — not as evidence that one section outperforms another. Underwrite each home on its own merits.
