As of October 2026, the MLS records 10 closed sales in Tim-buk-tu in Middleburg, FL since 2013, the most recent in April 2022. Across Middleburg as a whole, 602 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $315,000, 46 median days on market, with 219 homes for sale today. At that median and Clay County's FY2025-26 rate of 15.05 mills, annual property tax runs about $4,740 ($4,150 with the full homestead exemption).

Tim-buk-tu is a small pocket in Middleburg — just 29 homes — with a build range that runs from 1965 all the way to 2022 and a median year built of 1996. That spread is the story here. Price is driven less by a single benchmark and more by which home you're looking at: an original mid-century structure and a recent build sit in the same community, and condition, updates, and lot are what separate them. Treat any headline number as a starting point, not a rule.
With a median living area around 1,568 square feet, this is a modestly-sized community where the individual property matters more than the aggregate. A homestead share of roughly 57% suggests a good portion of these are owner-occupied rather than turned over quickly. For a seller, that means comparables are thin and each closing carries weight; for a buyer, it means you underwrite the specific house, not the neighborhood average.

The Tim-buk-tu buying strategy.
If we were buying in Tim-buk-tu 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 Tim-buk-tu.
A small community with a wide build range
The defining feature of Tim-buk-tu is variety inside a tight footprint. With homes built between 1965 and 2022 and a median around 1996, you're looking at a place where an updated or newer home will read very differently from an original one. Because the community is small, there won't be a steady stream of listings to compare against — patience and a willingness to act when the right home appears both matter.
The median living area near 1,568 square feet points to right-sized homes rather than sprawling floor plans. Roughly 57% owner-occupancy tends to correlate with homes that have been lived in and maintained rather than churned. None of that guarantees condition — it just means the burden is on inspection and walkthrough, not on assumptions drawn from the snapshot.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Tim-buk-tu. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a 29-home community with a build range this wide, the average tells you almost nothing about the house in front of you. We help buyers read the difference between an original structure and an updated or newer one, and we help sellers price against genuinely comparable homes rather than a broad neighborhood number. When listings are this sparse, timing and judgment do the heavy lifting.
