Market Heat
St James Place is a small, established Jacksonville community of 509 homes built between 2003 and 2018 (median year built 2006), with a median living area of 2,425 sqft. The current snapshot is built on a thin sample of just 6 closings, so treat the median price of $278,500 and the $146.69 per-square-foot figure as directional rather than a precise line, especially given the home sizes and build years vary across nearly 15 years of construction.
There are zero active listings at this snapshot, meaning there is currently nothing on the market to compare against or bid on. Median days on market of just over 96 days and a year-over-year price change of -14.7% both point to a slower, buyer-patient posture right now rather than a competitive bidding environment. For a seller, that argues for pricing on the conservative side and being ready to sit; for a buyer, it argues for having an agent watching for the next listing rather than expecting a deep active inventory to shop from.
St James Place right now
🟡 Balanced market. 3.4 months of supply and 50% 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 5, 2026. Confidence: Medium (4 active and pending listings, 9 closed sales in 12 months).
🔴 Off the recent peak. The trailing-12-month median ($285K) is down 9.4% from the prior 12 months ($315K) and up 132% since 2012. With about a dozen 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 5. Confidence: Low (9 and 3 sales in the two windows).

The 60-Second Overview
St James Place market snapshot (as of August 5, 2026): the median sale price is about $285K ($145 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), a median 83 days on market for closed sales, and 3.4 months of supply, a balanced market. The trailing-12-month median is down 9% from the prior 12 months and up 132% since 2012, computed from record-level realMLS closed sales (9 closings in the current window).
St James Place is a community of 509 homes in Jacksonville, Duval County, built between 2003 and 2018 (median 2006), with a median living area of about 2,425 square feet. 70% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).
Prices here have climbed 137% since 2012, but the most recent year-over-year read is down 14.7% on a small closings sample — a reminder that long-run appreciation and this year's snapshot can tell two different stories in a low-volume community.

Who St James Place is best for.
Best for
- A buyer targeting a specific mid-2000s-to-late-2010s built home near 2,425 sqft, comfortable near the mid-$270s median and willing to wait for a listing to surface.
- A buyer prioritizing an established, built-out community over new construction, with flexibility on timing given the current lack of active inventory.
- A buyer or seller who wants pricing decisions grounded in per-square-foot data ($146.69) rather than headline price alone, given the small closings sample.
Probably not for
- A buyer who wants to compare multiple active listings side by side today — there are none in this community right now.
- A buyer who needs a large statistical sample before trusting a price trend; this window has only 6 closings.
- A buyer set on new construction; homes here run from 2003 to 2018 with a median build year of 2006.
Price History: What Homes Here Have Actually Sold For
Median sale price over the trailing 12 months ending August 5 of each year, from record-level realMLS closed sales. Same methodology as every appreciation figure on this page: the 2026 point ($285K) IS the median in the snapshot above, and the move from 2025 ($315K) IS the -9.4% one-year change.
Windows contain 3 to 44 sales each (9 in the current window); every figure carries its sample size, and thin markets swing on single closings. Source: Data provided by realMLS. Deemed reliable but not guaranteed.

The St James Place buying strategy.
If we were buying in St James Place 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 St James Place.
A low-volume market that still trades on fundamentals
With only 509 homes in the community and just 6 closings in this window, St James Place does not generate the transaction volume of larger subdivisions, which is exactly why single-snapshot numbers need context. The median price of $278,500 and price per square foot of $146.69 sit against a median home of 2,425 sqft built in 2006 — this is a community of established, mid-2000s-to-late-2010s construction, not new build or older legacy housing.
About 69.5% of homes here carry a homestead exemption, consistent with a base of owner-occupied properties rather than a heavy investor/rental concentration. Combined with a market heat score of 19 and zero active listings at the time of this snapshot, the picture is a quiet community where inventory turns over slowly and buyers should expect to wait for the right listing rather than choose among several at once.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in St James Place. 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 (6.3). Basis: Long-Term Appreciation +132% since 2012; Recent Direction -9.4% year-over-year; Liquidity & Demand 3.4 months of supply; Owner Commitment 70% owner-occupied; Pricing Power 93.8% sale-to-list. Refreshed with each data update.
Why work with Momentum here
A community with zero active listings and only 6 closings in the current window is not one you can shop by scrolling a portal — there is nothing to scroll. This is where having an agent who tracks St James Place specifically, and hears about a listing before or as it hits the market, actually matters. We can also help you read the $278,500 median and $146.69 per-square-foot figures in context of the 2003-2018 build range and 2,425 sqft median size, so you are not anchoring on a number pulled from a different vintage or size of home in the community.
