Secret Cove is a compact, low-key pocket of Jacksonville where the appeal is simplicity: a manageable community that keeps you close to the wider city without the noise of a major master-planned development. Neighbors here look to nearby areas like Chimney Lakes, Royal Lakes, and Marietta for everyday errands and space to spread out, with Cecil Field Airport anchoring the western side of town.
For a buyer today, Secret Cove is a thin market — there's just one active listing at $155,000, so timing and readiness matter. Over the last year two homes sold at a median of $195,000, and sellers here have been getting about 93% of asking, which tells you there's room to negotiate. Watch the live map closely, because inventory this tight moves on availability, not abundance.

Secret Cove FAQs
Is Secret Cove a good place to live?+
It suits buyers who want a quiet, small-scale community at an accessible price rather than a big-amenity development. You're close to west Jacksonville hubs like Chimney Lakes and Royal Lakes, with room to spread out nearby. The trade-off is a small housing stock, so options come and go.
Is Secret Cove expensive?+
No — it's one of the more attainable corners of Jacksonville. The current active listing is $155,000, and homes that sold over the past year did so at a median of $195,000, both well below many Duval County neighborhoods.
What do homes cost in Secret Cove?+
The single active listing is priced at $155,000 at roughly $115 per square foot, with a median home size around 1,347 square feet. Recent sales landed higher, at a median sold price of $195,000, so pricing depends heavily on the specific home and its condition.
How is the Secret Cove market right now?+
It's a very thin market — just one active listing and two sales in the past twelve months. Homes take a median of 64 days to sell and sellers average 93% of asking, which signals a slower, more negotiable pace. If you want to move here, watch the live map for new listings.
What are the HOA fees and property taxes like?+
The median HOA runs about $670 per month, which is on the higher side and worth factoring into your budget. Property taxes come in around $3,267 per year based on recent data. Always confirm the exact figures for any specific home before you commit.
