Homes for Sale in Jacksonville, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
As of September 2026, the MLS records 30 closed sales in Oak Haven in Jacksonville, FL since 2002, the most recent in August 2026. Recorded prices across those 30 sales ran from $100,000 to $1,350,000 (median $238,000), on homes of 1,186 to 4,401 sq ft. Across Jacksonville as a whole, 8,811 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $310,000, 44 median days on market, with 2,375 homes for sale today. At that median and Duval County's FY2025-26 rate of 17.86 mills, annual property tax runs about $4,250 ($3,520 with the full homestead exemption).
Oak Haven is an older, established pocket of Jacksonville where the homes carry a median build year of 1951 and a span that runs from 1900 all the way to 2022. That range tells you the real story: price here is driven by condition and how far a given house has been renovated, not by a uniform product type. Two homes on the same street can trade very differently depending on whether the systems, roof, and interior have been brought current.
With 107 homes in the picture and a homestead share of about 74%, this is a lived-in, owner-occupied area rather than a churn-heavy investor zone. For a buyer, that means inventory that turns over deliberately and rewards patience. For a seller, it means the work you have or haven't done to the house shows up directly in what you can ask.
The 60-Second Overview
Oak Haven pairs early-20th-century housing stock with scattered newer construction, so the neighborhood reads as a renovation market where the condition of the individual home matters more than any single price band.
Pre-construction details are compiled from public records, builder announcements and builder listings, and are subject to change without notice; figures are deemed reliable but not guaranteed.

Who Oak Haven is best for.
Best for
- Buyers with a renovation budget who want to build value through updates on older stock
- Long-hold owner-occupants comfortable in a mostly homesteaded, slower-turnover area
- Buyers seeking a mid-size footprint around 1,823 square feet with room to modernize
Probably not for
- Buyers who want turnkey new construction and predictable, banded pricing
- Short-term flippers counting on rapid inventory churn
- Buyers unwilling to underwrite roof, electrical, and plumbing age on pre-war homes

The Oak Haven buying strategy.
If we were buying in Oak Haven 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 Oak Haven.
An age-diverse stock where condition sets price
The median living area sits at 1,823 square feet, which is a workable mid-size footprint, but the wide year-built range from 1900 to 2022 is the number to sit with. A 1951 median means much of the stock predates modern building norms, so plan to underwrite roof age, electrical, plumbing, and foundation on anything that hasn't been recently updated. The upside is real: original character with newer construction mixed in gives buyers genuine choice.
Because the value spread here is condition-driven rather than tied to a tight price band, comparables have to be read carefully. A renovated home and an untouched one of similar size are not the same trade, and averaging them will mislead you in both directions. This is a market where a walk-through and a good inspection do more than a spreadsheet.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Oak Haven. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a neighborhood where a 1951 median mixes with homes built as recently as 2022, the difference between a fair price and an overpay comes down to reading condition against comparable sales. We underwrite the house in front of you — systems, updates, and footprint — rather than leaning on a neighborhood average that blends renovated and original stock into a misleading middle.
