As of October 2026, the MLS records 7 closed sales in Sherwood Hills in Jacksonville, FL since 2015, the most recent in August 2026. 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 $5,630 ($4,890 with the full homestead exemption).
Sherwood Hills is a small pocket in Jacksonville — the snapshot counts just 5 homes, built between 1985 and 1998, with a median living area of roughly 1,344 square feet. With inventory this thin and no closings in the current window, there is no reliable price trend to lean on; what sells here will be dictated by the condition and updates of the individual home far more than by any neighborhood-wide number.
For a buyer, that means underwriting each listing on its own merits and being ready to move when the right one surfaces, since choices are limited. For a seller, presentation and condition do the heavy lifting: with so few comparable sales, a well-prepared home sets its own reference point rather than following the pack.
Figures in this note are as of July 12, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.

The 60-Second Overview
A compact, established Jacksonville enclave of modestly sized homes from the mid-1980s through the late 1990s. It trades in low volume, so timing and condition matter more than headline stats.
realMLS (Northeast Florida) sales records identify 5 homes in Sherwood Hills that have changed hands since 2022, built between 1973 and 1998 (median 1985), with a median living area of about 1,176 sq ft and a typical 3-bedroom, 2-bath layout.

Who Sherwood Hills is best for.
Best for
- Buyers wanting a compact, sub-1,400-square-foot home and willing to wait for the right listing
- Investors comfortable diligencing occupancy, rental history, and condition on a low-turnover pocket
- Value-focused buyers who can judge a home on its own systems and updates rather than a comp average
Probably not for
- Buyers who need a wide selection of homes on the market at once
- Anyone relying on frequent recent sales to anchor an offer price
- Buyers seeking newer construction or larger floor plans than this vintage offers

The Sherwood Hills buying strategy.
If we were buying in Sherwood Hills 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 Sherwood Hills.
A small-inventory pocket where condition sets the price
The housing stock here is consistent in vintage — everything falls in a roughly 1985-to-1998 window, with a median build year of 1997 and a median footprint near 1,344 square feet. That points to homes of a similar generation, meaning mechanical systems, roofs, and kitchens are the likely swing factors between an updated home and one that needs work. Price the home in front of you, not the neighborhood average.
One data point worth naming: the homestead share is 0%, which suggests these are not owner-occupied primary residences claiming the exemption in the snapshot. That can signal a lease-heavy or investor-held pocket, and it is worth confirming HOA rules, rental history, and current occupancy before you write an offer.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Sherwood Hills. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a community this small, the public numbers only take you so far. We dig into each home's condition, systems, and history — and the occupancy and rental picture behind that 0% homestead figure — so you are pricing and negotiating on facts, not on a thin comp set.
