Springfield Heights
Homes for Sale in Jacksonville, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
As of September 2026, the MLS records 12 closed sales in Springfield Heights in Jacksonville, FL since 2007, the most recent in June 2025. Across Jacksonville as a whole, 8,811 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $310,000, 44 median days on market, with 2,375 homes for sale today. At that median and Duval County's FY2025-26 rate of 17.86 mills, annual property tax runs about $5,540 ($4,800 with the full homestead exemption).
Springfield Heights is an old-Jacksonville inventory story. With a median year built of 1924 and stock stretching from 1907 to 2024, price here is set less by the block and more by what has been done to the individual house. A restored historic home and a tired one on the same street are two very different transactions, and the median price masks a wide spread driven almost entirely by condition. Read the renovation scope, the mechanicals, and the foundation before you read the list price.
The homestead share sits at roughly 28%, meaning most of these 398 homes are held as something other than an owner-occupied primary residence. That tells you this is a market with real investor and rental presence. For a buyer, expect to compete with people running numbers, not just people picking a place to live. For a seller, a well-documented renovation is your leverage, because condition is what buyers are actually pricing.

Springfield Heights is a historic core neighborhood where the median home dates to 1924 and typical living space runs around 1,327 square feet. The through-line is age and character, not uniformity, so no two houses trade on the same terms.

The Springfield Heights buying strategy.
If we were buying in Springfield Heights 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 Springfield Heights.
Why condition is the whole game here
When a neighborhood's median home is a century old and living space is modest at about 1,327 square feet, the variable that moves price is not square footage or lot size, it is what someone has spent to bring an old house forward. Wiring, plumbing, roof, foundation, and how sympathetically a renovation was done all matter more than the headline number. Two homes of similar size can sit far apart in value.
That same age brings the upside people come here for: original detail, generous room proportions from an earlier building era, and the kind of streetscape you cannot reproduce in new construction. The presence of homes built as recently as 2024 shows infill is happening, but the character of Springfield Heights is set by its older stock. Buy the inspection, not the paint.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Springfield Heights. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
