Market Heat
Saddlewood's 148 homes were built between 1998 and 2021, with a median build year of 2001 and a median living area of 2,250.5 square feet — this is an established Duval County subdivision, not a new-construction pocket. The $362,393 median price works out to $187.11 per square foot, and with just 2 active listings against 148 total homes, there is very little on the market at any given moment to price or negotiate against.
The trend lines lean firmly toward sellers over time: prices are up 11.5% year over year and 153% since 2012. Momentum's data currently reads the market as balanced, with 6 months of supply and a median 41.5 days on market — not a sprint, but not stagnant either. With homestead exemptions filed on 79.7% of homes, resale turnover here has historically been limited, which is part of why the active-listing count runs so thin.

🟡 Balanced market. 6.0 months of supply and 0% 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 19, 2026. Confidence: Low (2 active and pending listings, 3 closed sales in 12 months).
🟡 Still climbing. The trailing-12-month median ($366K) is up 7.0% from the prior 12 months ($342K) and up 156% since 2012. With about 8 sales a year, a single closing can swing this number, so read the level and the decade, not one year's move.Momentum Research, record-level realMLS closed sales, 12-month windows ending August 19. Confidence: Low (3 and 4 sales in the two windows).

Who Saddlewood is best for.
Best for
- Buyers comfortable moving quickly when one of the community's 2 active listings fits a budget near $362,393.
- Buyers prioritizing an established home built between 1998 and 2021 over new construction.
- Buyers who want a playground and basketball court within the community's amenity package.
Probably not for
- Buyers who need a large pool of active listings to compare before deciding — there are only 2 right now.
- Buyers set on new construction, since the newest homes here date to 2021 and the median build year is 2001.
- Buyers expecting to negotiate deeply below the $362,393 median in a market Momentum currently reads as balanced.

The Saddlewood buying strategy.
If we were buying in Saddlewood 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 Saddlewood.
A thin, steadily appreciating Duval pocket
With just 2 active listings across a 148-home community, Saddlewood trades in small numbers — a single closing can move the median noticeably. The $362,393 median price and $187.11 median price per square foot reflect homes built between 1998 and 2021, with a median build year of 2001 and a median living area of 2,250.5 square feet. Momentum's data currently reads the market as balanced, with 6 months of supply on hand.
Momentum's market heat score for Saddlewood sits at 45, and the numbers underneath it point in different directions depending on the timeframe: prices are up 11.5% over the past year and 153% since 2012, while a median 41.5 days on market suggests buyers aren't rushing every listing that appears. For a seller, that combination argues for pricing realistically at the outset rather than testing the market; for a buyer, it means there is still some room to negotiate terms even as the longer-term trend favors the seller.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Saddlewood. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.

Momentum Intelligence Scores are our proprietary, qualitative assessment on a 0 to 10 scale, built from the record-level market data on this page. They are a framework for comparing communities, not a guarantee of future value and not advice on a specific home; unlike an automated value estimate they do not price your home, they grade the community on evidence you can inspect. Composite is the plain average of the 5 factors (7.8). Basis: Long-Term Appreciation +156% since 2012; Recent Direction +7.0% year-over-year; Liquidity & Demand 6.0 months of supply; Owner Commitment 83% owner-occupied; Pricing Power 99.8% sale-to-list. Refreshed with each data update.
