Data as of September 20, 2026. Data provided by realMLS. Market figures describe homes, not residents. Cite as: Momentum Realty, “The Paddocks key facts,” movewithmomentum.com/neighborhoods/the-paddocks-jacksonville, data as of September 20, 2026.
The Paddocks is a small, gated pocket of Jacksonville — just 36 homes total — and right now the market here is defined by scarcity, not price. There are zero active listings and only 2 closings in the current window, which tells you more about how rarely owners move than about what buyers are willing to pay.
With a homestead share of 80.6%, the large majority of these homes are owner-occupied rather than held as rentals or investments, which keeps turnover low and explains why so few units surface on the open market at any given time. For a buyer, that means working a target list and being ready to move the moment something comes up; for a seller, it means a listing here tends to draw attention precisely because there is so little competing inventory.

- Buyers who want more living space than typical — the median home here runs 3,253 square feet.
- Buyers comfortable in a low-turnover, largely owner-occupied setting (80.6% homestead share) rather than a fast-moving listing market.

- Buyers who want a wide pool of homes to compare side by side, since the entire community totals just 36 homes.

The The Paddocks buying strategy.
If we were buying in The Paddocks 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 The Paddocks.
Gated, Low-Turnover, and Rarely on the Market
Construction in The Paddocks spans 1991 to 2015, with a median build year of 2012 — meaning the community has a mix of original and comparatively newer homes behind the same gate. The median living area of 3,253 square feet points to larger, multi-room layouts rather than starter-sized product, consistent with a gated, security-gated enclave of only 36 homes.
The 80.6% homestead share is the number that explains everything else here: this is a community where most owners live in the home rather than renting it out or flipping it, and that owner-occupancy shows up directly in the listing data — zero active listings and just 2 closings in the current window. That is not a community where inventory turns over quickly, and buyers need to plan around that reality rather than around price.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in The Paddocks. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a 36-home gated community with zero active listings, public market data only tells part of the story. Momentum's Northeast Florida agents track ownership and activity inside communities like The Paddocks directly, so when one of these homes is about to move — often before it reaches the open market — our clients hear about it first. We also verify current gate, security, and HOA terms directly with the association rather than relying on stale listing notes, since access and amenity details in a gated community like this can change.
