Jon's Current Read

Murray Hill's median sale price sits at $272,700, about $213 per square foot, and that figure is down 4% year-over-year even as it remains up 445% since 2012. That combination is the real story here: after a long run-up, the market has cooled from its recent peak, and pricing is more sensitive to condition than it was a few years ago. A dated interior or deferred maintenance shows up in the sale price more directly than it did during the run-up.

With 130 closings recorded in this window and a median of 26 days on market, homes here are still moving at a workable pace, not a stalled one. What stands out is that active inventory is effectively at zero right now, which points to thin supply rather than weak demand. A market heat reading of 34 suggests this isn't an overheated seller's market, but thin listings still put real pressure on buyers waiting for the next round of options.

Murray Hill right now

🟡 Balanced market. 3.5 months of supply and 43% 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 August 20, 2026. Confidence: Very High (63 active and pending listings, 126 closed sales in 12 months).

🟡 Off the recent peak. The trailing-12-month median ($275K) is down 0.4% from the prior 12 months ($276K) and up 451% since 2012.Momentum Research, record-level realMLS closed sales, 12-month windows ending August 20. Confidence: Very High (126 and 112 sales in the two windows).

Murray Hill is a community of 2,045 homes in Jacksonville, Duval County, built between 1900 and 2024 (median 1942), with a median living area of about 1,352 square feet. 54% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).

Murray Hill is an established Duval County community in Jacksonville where pricing has climbed 445% since 2012, even as the pace of the market has eased over the past year.

Best for

  • Buyers targeting a purchase near the $272,700 median who are comfortable competing for scarce active inventory.
  • Sellers looking to price against 26 days of typical market time rather than an outdated comp.
  • Anyone weighing a long-hold value story, pricing up 445% since 2012 despite the recent pullback.

Probably not for

  • Buyers who want to compare several active listings side by side before committing, given active inventory near zero.
  • Anyone assuming last year's price trend continues; the median is down 4% year-over-year.
  • Buyers unwilling to weigh condition heavily in price, given how much condition now drives value here.

    Community First names Arble Baking Co. as a food feature for the Edgewood branch

    Community First Credit Union said it has partnered with Arble Baking Co. to add a food offering at the former Edgewood Bakery at 1012 Edgewood Avenue South, which it is converting into a Murray Hill branch with a planned community room. The bakery building dates to 1947 and had sat vacant since the prior operation closed in 2016. Completion of the branch is expected in late 2026.

    City permit clears Edgewood Bakery conversion into a Community First branch

    The city issued a building permit in March 2026 for Community First Credit Union to renovate the long-vacant former Edgewood Bakery at 1012 Edgewood Avenue South, with an approved project cost near $3.5 million. Plans call for renovating roughly 4,628 square feet and adding drive-thru lanes, an outdoor plaza, a front lawn, a community room, and an on-site food truck. Auld and White Constructors is handling the work, targeted for completion in late 2026.

    New roundabout opens at Post Street and Old Roosevelt Boulevard

    FDOT opened a new roundabout where Post Street meets Old Roosevelt Boulevard in mid-October 2025, after about four months of construction. The roughly $6.5 million project includes rail safety upgrades, resurfacing, new signage, lighting, and removal of several traffic signals. FDOT said the redesign is expected to sharply reduce rail-related incidents, with remaining work finishing by mid-2026.

    An operator announced plans to open a Hamburger Mary's restaurant at the former El Jefe space at 947 Edgewood Avenue South, with an initial investment near $150,000. The redesign adds a stage, a performers' entrance, and capacity near 100 guests. A related retail shop was also planned for the adjacent storefront.

    Artistic light display advances for the Edgewood and Roosevelt underpass gateway

    A sculptural lighting program by artist Bill Fitzgibbons, titled Jacksonville Spectrum, moved toward final review in late 2024 for the underpass where Edgewood Avenue meets Roosevelt Boulevard at the Murray Hill and Avondale gateway. The lighting is part of a larger roadway project that also added roundabouts and a completed mural at the site. State roadway rules shaped the color scheme and timing.

    What it may mean for the marketA finished gateway feature could strengthen the visual identity of the district's entry point, which may support its appeal as a walkable retail destination.

If we were buying in Murray Hill 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 Murray Hill.

Best Buy
Buyers and sellers who want a data-current read on a Duval County market that has cooled from its 2012-era run-up.
Biggest Risk
Active inventory is effectively at zero right now, which limits options for buyers waiting on the next listing.
Sweet Spot
Listings priced and presented to reflect current, condition-driven value rather than last year's numbers.
Avoid If
You need a large pool of active choices to compare before deciding.

What's Driving Murray Hill Pricing

At $213 per square foot, Murray Hill's 4% pullback over the past year reflects a broader adjustment rather than anything specific to this pocket of Duval County. Sellers here are still benefiting from a long stretch of appreciation, up 445% since 2012, but the recent trend line is flat to softer, which matters for anyone pricing a listing today.

Twenty-six days of median time on market is a moderate pace: not instant, but not stagnant either. Combined with a market heat score of 34, the read is a market that has settled onto more normal footing after its run-up, with buyers regaining some negotiating room even as the roughly 130 closings recorded show real transaction volume continuing.

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