As of October 2026, Odessa Terrace in Jacksonville, FL has 1 home for sale. As of October 2026, the MLS records 46 closed sales in Odessa Terrace in Jacksonville, FL since 2003, the most recent in November 2024. Recorded prices across those 45 sales ran from $8,500 to $840,000 (median $68,000), on homes of 825 to 2,502 sq ft. Across Jacksonville as a whole, 7,643 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $315,000, 43 median days on market, with 4,168 homes for sale today. At that median and Duval County's FY2025-26 rate of 17.86 mills, annual property tax runs about $1,210.
Odessa Terrace is an older Jacksonville pocket — most of the 220 homes here trace back to a median build year of 1949, though the range runs all the way to 2024, so age and condition vary block to block rather than following a single build era. With only one active listing and no closings recorded in the current window, there isn't enough current transaction volume to read a clear price trend; whoever is active here right now is largely setting the market on a single data point.
At a median of about 1,220 square feet, homes tend toward compact floor plans, which keeps renovation scope and per-square-foot economics front and center for both buyers and sellers. With homestead exemptions filed on roughly a third of homes (33%), the property mix leans toward a blend of owner-occupied and non-homestead ownership rather than one uniform pattern, which is worth factoring into how a listing gets priced.
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
Odessa Terrace is a Duval County pocket of 220 homes spanning a wide build era — from construction as old as 1904 to homes finished in 2024 — with a median build year of 1949 that puts much of the housing stock well past a half-century old.

Probably not for

The Odessa Terrace buying strategy.
If we were buying in Odessa Terrace 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 Odessa Terrace.
Odessa Terrace by the numbers
The 220 homes in Odessa Terrace span build years from 1904 to 2024, with a median of 1949 — meaning much of the neighborhood predates modern code cycles, while a subset of newer construction sits alongside it. That spread matters for anyone comparing two listings on paper: two homes on the same street can differ by a century in construction.
Median living area sits at about 1,220 square feet, on the smaller end for single-family stock, and just one active listing is on the market as of this snapshot with no closings recorded in the current window. That thin inventory means pricing here is set case-by-case rather than by a running comp trend, and buyers should expect to do more of their own condition-based diligence than in a higher-turnover community.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Odessa Terrace. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
With only one active listing and zero recent closings to lean on, Odessa Terrace is not a market where a generic comp sheet tells the story. Momentum pulls the full build-year and square-footage picture for every home in the 220-home footprint — not just what is currently listed — so pricing conversations start from the neighborhood's actual age and condition spread rather than guesswork.
