Homes listed or recently sold were built 1958–1960; none of the 3 geocoded homes sit in a FEMA special flood hazard zone (median elevation 26 ft). As of November 2026, the MLS records 17 closed sales in Sherwood in Jacksonville, FL since 2013, the most recent in September 2026. Across Jacksonville as a whole, 12,703 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $304,990, 43 median days on market, with 4,150 homes for sale today. At that median and Duval County's FY2025-26 rate of 17.86 mills, annual property tax runs about $5,450 ($4,710 with the full homestead exemption).
Sherwood is an older Jacksonville pocket, with a median build year of 1961 and homes spanning 1954 to 2023. That age spread is the story: with a median living area around 1,357 square feet, this is a compact-home market where condition, updates, and any newer infill construction drive price far more than location alone. There is no single going rate — an untouched original will trade very differently from one that has been reworked, and the price you see reflects the work already done or still needed.
With 308 homes in the snapshot and a homestead share right at 51%, roughly half of these are owner-occupied and half are not — a balance that keeps a steady supply of both move-in-ready and project-grade inventory in circulation. For buyers, that means you can find a house that matches your appetite for work if you are patient. For sellers, it means the market rewards proof: a documented, well-updated home stands out against a backdrop of aging original stock.
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
Sherwood is a small, established Jacksonville community of modest-sized homes where an unusually long build range means two houses on the same street can be decades apart in age and condition. Price here is a condition conversation, not a square-footage formula.
realMLS (Northeast Florida) sales records identify 15 homes in Sherwood that have changed hands since 2001, built between 1955 and 1977 (median 1959), with a median living area of about 1,360 sq ft and a typical 3-bedroom, 2-bath layout; 93% are single-family homes. 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.
County records show 8 qualified sales in Sherwood across 2024–2025 (7 in 2024, 1 in 2025), median $185,000 — the last recorded sale per parcel on the Florida DOR 2025 assessment roll, independent of the MLS.

The Sherwood buying strategy.
If we were buying in Sherwood 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.
Reading an old, mixed-age market
The median home dates to 1961 and runs about 1,357 square feet, so most of the housing stock is small and mature. The presence of construction as recent as 2023 tells you infill and rebuilds happen here, but they are the exception against a majority-vintage backdrop. Practically, that means roofs, systems, plumbing, and electrical age are the first things to underwrite — the value gap between a maintained home and a deferred one is wide, and it is the single biggest variable you will negotiate.
The homestead share just over half signals a genuine mix of owner-occupied houses and non-homestead properties. That mix is why inventory quality varies: you will see updated homes held by owners alongside rental-grade or as-is stock. Buyers who can read condition — and price it — have room to work. Sellers who can show the receipts on updates separate themselves quickly.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Sherwood. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a market this age-driven, the number that matters is not a list price — it is the true cost of a home once its condition is factored in. We walk Sherwood houses with an eye on build era, systems, and update quality, so buyers know what they are underwriting and sellers know exactly which improvements to document before listing. That is how you avoid overpaying for a project or underpricing a home that has already had the work done.
