Aberdeen Homes For Sale, St. Johns County

The HOA is genuinely tiny — about $50 a year on most Aberdeen listings — and that’s not a typo; it’s the CDD model. The Aberdeen Community Development District funds and maintains the amenity structure, and its assessment rides the St. Johns County tax bill, scaled by lot width. Per the district’s own FY2026 adopted budget, single-family totals (operations plus both bond series) run from about $1,994 a year on a 53-foot lot to about $2,803 on an 80-foot lot, with townhomes near $997. Two similar houses on different lot widths carry different bills, and a prior owner may have prepaid bond principal — so I pull the exact district line for the specific parcel on every Aberdeen home my buyers consider. Judge the carry cost on the full stack, not the $50 headline.

Yes — both waterfront pond lots and homes with private pools do come up in Aberdeen. Pond-front and lake-view lots are part of the community's layout, and a portion of homes have private pools. That said, not every home in Aberdeen has either feature, so if a pool or water view is a priority, it's worth filtering specifically for those. The community pool is available to all residents regardless of whether a home has a private pool.

Aberdeen is zoned for the St. Johns County School District, which is consistently regarded as one of the stronger public school districts in Florida. Most addresses in Aberdeen are served by Freedom Crossing Academy (K–8), with Bartram Trail High School serving high school students. Some addresses may fall under Cunningham Creek Elementary or Switzerland Point Middle instead — school assignments in Aberdeen can vary by exact location, so I always recommend verifying the specific zoning through the St. Johns County School District for any address you're seriously considering. Aberdeen spans more than one attendance zone, so always confirm the current assignment for the specific address with the St. Johns County School District before you write an offer — I check it as part of every showing.

Every big master plan in the county funds its amenities differently, and the HOA line alone will mislead you on all five. Julington Creek: the CDD owns the amenities outright — rec center, water park, Sportsplex — and charges $1,385/yr for a single-family home (FY2025 adopted), one of the county’s most modest district lines because the build-out is long financed; HOA about $580/yr. Aberdeen: HOA about $50/yr, with the Aberdeen CDD carrying the amenity structure at roughly $1,994–$2,803/yr scaled by lot width (FY2026 adopted budget). Murabella: the same inversion — HOA $50–$150/yr, Murabella CDD on the order of $2,800/yr. Markland: a real POA plus the Southaven CDD at roughly $3,000–$3,500/yr scaled by lot width. Silverleaf: the outlier — no CDD at all, with a master HOA near $1,200/yr plus sub-neighborhood dues by section. Every figure comes from the districts’ own adopted budgets or live MLS listings, and the lesson is the same everywhere: compare total carry — HOA plus district line plus taxes — not the association sticker. I run that side-by-side for buyers deciding between these communities.

Worth what the next Aberdeen buyer will pay, which the last few Aberdeen closings predict better than any website estimate. Over the two years to September 2026, 52 Aberdeen homes closed through the MLS at a median of $485,000. This site publishes no automated value on purpose; the listings and recorded sales on this page are the raw material instead, updated as the MLS updates. When you want it turned into a number for your home, I do that personally against the actual sales.

Two numbers answer it: the neighborhood's median and your home's position against the homes for sale the week you list. The 52 Aberdeen sales recorded over the two years to September 2026 spent a median of 30 days on the market. The first is on this page and changes with the season; the second decides whether you beat the median or trail it. Pricing against Aberdeen's live competition, not last year's average, is most of the work.

A few lines beyond the obvious ones. In Aberdeen, plan on the commission you and I agree on, Florida's documentary stamp tax on the deed (70 cents per $100 of price), title and closing charges that follow local custom, the association's estoppel letter, and the community development district line, which is prorated at closing and disclosed to your buyer; handled correctly it is paperwork, handled late it stalls a contract. The same sale price nets differently with concessions, timing and positioning, so I run the full seller's net sheet for your home before you commit to a number.
