Homes for Sale in Orange Park, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
As of September 2026, the MLS records 75 closed sales in Waterford Landing in Orange Park, FL since 2001, the most recent in May 2025. Recorded prices across those 74 sales ran from $220,000 to $710,000 (median $334,000), on homes of 2,230 to 3,773 sq ft. Across Orange Park as a whole, 654 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $330,000, 39 median days on market, with 162 homes for sale today. At that median and Clay County's FY2025-26 rate of 15.05 mills, annual property tax runs about $5,030 ($4,430 with the full homestead exemption).
Waterford Landing is a single, contained subdivision in Orange Park — 122 homes built between 1995 and 2011, all landing within roughly the same construction era rather than mixing decades. That consistency, plus a median living area of 2,776.5 square feet, means these are larger-format single-family houses, not starter product. There is no confirmed community amenity package in current MLS listings, so pricing here tracks the house and the lot, not a clubhouse or pool fee.
There are no closed sales posted in the current tracked window, so we cannot point to a live price trend or pace right now — anyone quoting a number for Waterford Landing today is estimating, not reporting. What we can say: homestead exemption filings sit at 89.3%, which tells you this is overwhelmingly owner-occupied housing stock rather than an investor or rental pocket, a signal of a stable, low-turnover street.

The Waterford Landing buying strategy.
If we were buying in Waterford Landing 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 Waterford Landing.
A larger-format, owner-occupied subdivision
The 122 homes in Waterford Landing were built across a fairly tight window, 1995 to 2011, with a median year built of 1996 anchoring most of the subdivision toward its earlier phase. Median living area runs 2,776.5 square feet, larger than a typical entry-level Clay County floor plan, which points to move-up or single-story-plus-bonus construction rather than compact starter homes.
Current MLS records show no confirmed community amenities — no listed pool, clubhouse, or gated feature tied to the subdivision — so buyers here are paying for house and lot, not a shared recreation package. Combined with an 89.3% homestead exemption rate, Waterford Landing reads as a settled, owner-occupied neighborhood rather than a rental-heavy or investor-driven pocket.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Waterford Landing. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
