As of October 2026, the MLS records 135 closed sales in St Johns Woods in Jacksonville, FL since 2001, the most recent in May 2026. Recorded prices since 2024 ran from $279,900 to $445,000 (median $340,000), on homes of 1,553 to 2,422 sq ft. 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 $6,070 ($5,340 with the full homestead exemption).
St Johns Woods is a tight, established pocket of 100 homes built between 1987 and 1995, with a median build year of 1992. At a median of $335,000 and $181.98 per square foot on a typical 2,071-square-foot home, price here tracks size and condition more than anything else — this isn't a subdivision with a wide mix of home types pulling the median in different directions. With homestead exemptions filed on 75.2% of homes, most of what you're buying into is owner-occupied rather than investor-held.
Inventory is about as thin as it gets right now — a single active listing against 3.0 months of supply, which the market still classifies as balanced even though there's almost nothing on the market to compare against. Homes here have taken a median of 51 days to sell, so buyers aren't fighting multiple-offer chaos, but sellers aren't discounting to move product either. Since 2012, values in St Johns Woods are up 191%, which tells you the run has already happened; the real question for a buyer today is what you're paying relative to that run, not whether the neighborhood has momentum.

The 60-Second Overview
St Johns Woods is a small, tightly built community of 100 homes constructed in a narrow window between 1987 and 1995, which gives it a more consistent look and construction era than newer, larger subdivisions nearby.

Who St Johns Woods is best for.
Best for
- A buyer targeting a home near the $335,000 median who values a consistent, single-era build window over a mix of construction dates.
- A buyer comfortable moving quickly and decisively given how little active inventory exists at any given time.
- A buyer prioritizing an established, largely owner-occupied community over a still-developing one.
Probably not for
- A buyer who wants several active listings to compare before deciding — there's currently only one on the market.
- An investor expecting a rental-dominant community — the 75.2% homestead share points the other way.
- A buyer expecting new-construction features or systems — every home here was built between 1987 and 1995.

The St Johns Woods buying strategy.
If we were buying in St Johns Woods 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 Johns Woods.
A small footprint, a narrow build window
With only 100 homes total and a build window of 1987 to 1995, St Johns Woods reads as a single, cohesive phase rather than a community stitched together over decades of additions. The median home runs 2,071 square feet, and at a median price of $335,000 — $181.98 per square foot — you're paying for an established, mid-size floor plan rather than new construction. The 75.2% homestead share reinforces that this is largely a community of owner-occupants, not a rental-heavy pocket.
On the market side, the numbers are tight in both directions. Just one home is active right now, months of supply sits at 3.0, and the market band reads balanced — a status that can shift quickly when inventory is this thin. A median 51 days on market means homes aren't flying off, but they aren't sitting either. The 191% price increase since 2012 is the headline number for anyone weighing whether St Johns Woods is still an entry point or whether the easy gains are behind it.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in St Johns Woods. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
With active inventory this thin — one listing against 100 total homes in the community — timing and local relationships matter more than a generic search. Momentum tracks St Johns Woods closely enough to flag a listing the moment it hits, benchmark it against the $181.98 per square foot median instead of a citywide number, and tell you honestly whether a given asking price makes sense against 51 days of typical market time or is testing the ceiling of the community's 191% run since 2012.
