About this home

Avondale

Owner financing available! Located in the heart of Jacksonville's vibrant Riverside Avondale Historic District, this versatile mixed-use property at 1250 McDuff Avenue South offers a rare opportunity to live, work, or invest in one of the city's most walkable and sought-after neighborhoods. The first-floor commercial space spans approximately 1,800 square feet and allows a wide range of uses by right, including medical or professional office, retail sales, service establishments, and restaurant use--making it ideal for owner-operators or investors seeking flexible income potential. Commercial Neighborhood zoning is scarce in Riverside Avondale, with only three small areas--less than 35 properties total--making this a highly desirable location to operate a business.

Cost to own

True monthly cost

What this home actually costs per month at the asking price — not just the mortgage.

Principal & interest20% down · 7.24% · 30yr$3,266
Property taxesest. at asking price, Duval County$978
Estimated total, before insurance$4,244/mo
Seller’s 2025 tax billper the MLS — includes any CDD / assessments$2,984/yr · $249/mo
  • • Homeowners insurance is on top — in Florida it varies widely with roof age and wind/flood zone (see the Reality Check below). Budget it before you offer.
  • • In CDD communities (Nocatee, eTown, Seven Pines…), bond assessments are collected on the property-tax bill, and the amount varies home to home — a prior owner may have prepaid the bond — so we confirm this home’s exact line rather than trust a community average.
  • • Taxes are estimated at YOUR purchase price — Florida assessments reset on sale, so the seller’s current bill is usually lower than yours will be (that applies to the reference bill above too).

Storms & insurance

Florida Reality Check

The storm-and-insurance facts every Florida buyer should know up front.

Zone X — minimal flood hazard

Flood insurance is typically not required by lenders (always optional).

Flood damage is not covered by standard homeowners insurance — it’s always a separate policy.

Outside all hurricane evacuation zones

This location is not in a designated storm-surge evacuation zone.

Roof: Shingle — year not disclosed (home built 1949)

Roof age drives Florida insurance pricing more than anything else — worth confirming before you offer.

Likely sewer

County records indicate this parcel on central sewer — no septic system to inspect or maintain.

Source: Florida DOH Water Management Inventory (public record).

Solar potential: ~1,135 usable sun-hours per year

Moderate solar exposure — shade or roof orientation limits panel output here.

Krista can connect you with local insurance quotes before you make an offer.

As of July 2026, this Reality Check is informational only — it draws on FEMA/FDEM hazard layers, Florida DOH water records, and the listing’s own fields, read at the listing’s map pin or, on lots of an acre or more, across the county parcel (state cadastral). A zone shown for part of a lot may not be where the home stands. None of it is a determination, survey, or inspection, and public records can lag or conflict with on-site conditions. Independently verify anything you’ll rely on: the flood zone at msc.fema.gov and floridadisaster.org/knowyourzone (and confirm flood-insurance cost with your lender and a licensed insurance agent), and the sewer/septic, roof, and utilities with a professional inspection.

2025 property taxes (current owner): $2,984/yr

Estimated taxes if purchased at asking price: ~$11,700/yr

Florida’s Save Our Homes cap limits how fast the current owner’s assessment can rise — and it resets when a home sells, so a buyer’s tax bill is typically based on the purchase price, not the seller’s bill above. Estimate uses the median effective rate across 3,305 current Duval listings and includes typical non-ad-valorem assessments; actual taxes depend on exemptions and taxing district.
