Windhover
Homes for Sale in Middleburg, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
As of September 2026, the MLS records 12 closed sales in Windhover in Middleburg, FL since 2001, the most recent in July 2020. Across Middleburg as a whole, 667 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $315,000, 47 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).
Windhover is a small, established pocket in Middleburg — 25 homes built between 1979 and 2014, with the median vintage landing at 1989. That age spread is the story here: what sets price is condition and updates, not square footage or a builder's spec sheet. Two homes of the same size can trade very differently depending on roof, systems, and interior work, so expect a wide, condition-driven spread rather than a tidy per-foot number.
With homes carrying a homestead share above 92%, this is an owner-occupied enclave, not an investor churn zone. Inventory turns rarely because most owners are staying put. For a seller, that scarcity works in your favor if the home shows well. For a buyer, patience matters — you are waiting for the right listing, not choosing from a shelf, and when one surfaces it pays to be ready to move.

The Windhover buying strategy.
If we were buying in Windhover 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 Windhover.
A condition-driven resale market
The build range from 1979 to 2014 means Windhover is not a single-era subdivision. Older homes may need roof, HVAC, and systems attention; the newer end of the range needs less. Because the community is so small, there is no steady comp stream to lean on — pricing depends heavily on the most recent, most comparable sale and on the honest condition of the specific home. Do the inspection homework and price to condition.
The median living area near 1,881 square feet points to practical, mid-sized layouts rather than sprawling floor plans. Buyers who want move-in-ready should budget for updates on the older stock; those willing to renovate may find the best value in a home that has been maintained but not modernized.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Windhover. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
