Jon's Read · written July 14, 2026

Ocean 14's pricing is driven by condition and finish level more than by raw square footage. The median sits at $595,000, with a median price per square foot of $511.86 — a figure that reflects unit-by-unit variance in updates and floor position more than any single market force. A 107-day median time on market tells you pricing here rewards patience over urgency on both sides of the table.

The last twelve months show a 19.4% pullback in the median compared to the prior year, a meaningful reset from where the community traded previously, even as prices remain up 112% since 2012 on a longer view. With only three active listings and six months of supply, conditions read as balanced rather than tilted toward either buyers or sellers, and a market heat score of 18 supports a slower, more deliberate pace of activity right now.

Figures in this note are as of July 14, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.

The 60-Second Overview

Ocean market snapshot (as of November 12, 2026): the median sale price is about $550K ($471 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 144 days on market for closed sales. The trailing-12-month median is down 26% from the prior 12 months and up 45% since 2012, computed from record-level realMLS closed sales (7 closings in the current window).

In ZIP 32250 (Jacksonville Beach), 541 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $675K ($409/sq ft), down 4.6% year over year, with a median 44 days on market. Right now 107 active and 32 pending listings put supply at about 2.4 months — a balanced market. See the live ZIP 32250 housing market and the Duval County market.

realMLS (Northeast Florida) sales records identify 91 homes in Ocean 14 that have changed hands since 2001, built between 1976 and 2004 (median 1976), with a median living area of about 1,388 sq ft and a typical 3-bedroom, 2-bath layout; 96% are condominiums. Source: realMLS (Northeast Florida) closed-sale history compiled by Momentum Research; counts reflect homes with a recorded MLS sale, not every home in the community.

Ocean 14 is an oceanfront condo community in Jacksonville Beach built around full-time, on-site management and building security — clubhouse, fitness center, pool, secured lobby, and beach access sit alongside intercom and security-lighting features that distinguish it from a typical low-rise building.

Best for

  • Buyers who want oceanfront access, full-time on-site management, and building security features as a package.
  • Buyers with a flexible timeline who can work through a 100-plus day median marketing period.
  • Buyers budgeting near the community's $595,000 median who are ready to compare units on condition, not just price.

Probably not for

  • Buyers who need a wide field of units to compare — three active listings is a narrow slice to choose from.
  • Buyers expecting a fast, competitive bidding process — current pace and heat score point the other way.
  • Buyers assuming a lower entry price exists here — the data supports only the $595,000 median, not a price range.

    Retail & Dining

    Hotel, restaurants and retail proposed to replace vacant Neptune Beach Kmart

    TriBridge Residential plans Town Center West at the former Kmart, 500 Atlantic Blvd., with a hotel, two restaurants, and office and retail space after demolishing the building. The project is described as a $100 million-plus investment and still needs variances and development plan approval. Design and permitting would take roughly 9 to 12 months once approvals are in hand.

    What it may mean for the marketRedeveloping a long-vacant big-box site on Atlantic Boulevard could add dining, lodging and shopping options close to the Beaches' central corridor. The project is about 4 miles north of Ocean 14, elsewhere in Duval County.

    St. Johns County denies 4,462-acre Palm Valley farmland housing application under new state enclave law

    Commissioners denied 3-2 on Sept. 15 the 4,462-acre Palm Valley application near Nocatee under the state agricultural enclave law, and the county plans to fight it in court. Another proposal of nearly 1,200 acres and about 15,000 homes south of St. Augustine was approved in August, then denied 3-2 on Sept. 28. St. Johns County has received 16 applications under the law.

    What it may mean for the marketThe outcome of these applications will shape how much new housing supply can be added on rural land in the county. The site is about 7 miles south of Ocean 14.

    Loretto Elementary breaks ground on $12.3 million classroom addition

    The addition will replace 13 portable classrooms and two aging pod buildings with 15 classrooms, a music room and a teacher planning room, and will expand the parent drop-off loop. The school enrolls 875 students for 2026-27. Funding comes from the voter-approved half-cent sales tax, with opening expected in 2028.

    JEA advances about $690 million in infrastructure projects including Fulton Cut transmission line raise near JAXPORT

    JEA is moving forward with three water reclamation projects (Blacks Ford in northwest St. Johns County, over $220 million; near Jacksonville International Airport, about $193 million; East Arlington, just under $165 million) and the $117 million Fulton Cut transmission line clearance over the St. Johns River near Blount Island. Fulton Cut, shared with JAXPORT and the city, is expected to finish in summer 2027 and all four projects by 2030.

    What it may mean for the marketRaised power lines support larger ship access to port terminals, and new reclamation capacity supports growth in surrounding areas. The site is about 11 miles northwest of Ocean 14.

If we were buying in Ocean 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 Ocean.

Best Buy
Buyers who want oceanfront condo living with full-time on-site management and are not in a rush.
Biggest Risk
Only three active listings means thin selection and limited comps to negotiate against.
Sweet Spot
Buyers evaluating units near the $595K median who will compare condition and floor level unit by unit.
Avoid If
Avoid if you need a fast close — a 107-day median says patience is part of the process here.

Ocean 14: Reading the Per-Square-Foot Spread

At $511.86 per square foot and a $595,000 median, Ocean 14 prices in a range where condition and view do the heavy lifting. The community has appreciated 112% since 2012, a long runway of gains, but the trailing year tells a different, cooler story: the median is down 19.4% year over year, based on the six closings this snapshot tracks. That is not a small move, and it is worth understanding unit-by-unit rather than assuming it applies evenly across every line and floor.

Supply is the other half of the story. Six months of supply and only three active listings put this community squarely in balanced territory — not a seller's market, not a buyer's market. A 107-day median days-on-market and a market heat score of 18 both point the same direction: this is a market moving at its own pace, where a well-priced unit still sells but nothing here is getting bid up in a hurry.

“

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

Why work with Momentum here

With just three active listings pulled from the realmls feed, Ocean 14 is a thin-inventory building where the comps that matter most are the ones you cannot see on a portal search. We track closings, condition, and per-square-foot spread unit by unit inside the building, and we pull current amenities and access details directly against the HOA rather than relying on what is reported across old MLS listings.
