"Of asking" is the median sold price as a share of the final list price. † A partial year in the feed: it carries only some of that year’s sales, so the median rests on fewer homes and the percent change above starts at the first full year.

Living Here

What It's Like to Live in Gran Lake

Day-to-day living in Gran Lake is anchored by its own jogging path and sidewalk network, and the Trailmark Woof Pac Dog Park is less than a mile away — a convenient stop for dog owners. Publix Super Market at Shoppes at Murabella is about 3 miles out, and the same corridor puts Simone's Wood Fired Craft Kitchen, Mellow Mushroom St. Augustine - Murabella, and Tropical Smoothie Cafe all within easy reach. For fitness outside the community, both the YMCA at Flagler Health+ Village and F45 Training Murabella are roughly 3 miles away. Watson Island State Forest, about 2 miles from home, adds a quieter outdoor option when residents want to step off the beaten path.

The Homes

Gran Lake Homes & Architecture

Homes in Gran Lake are exclusively single-family residences, built between 2019 and 2020, and they carry the newer-construction feel that comes with open floorplans and contemporary interior finishes. Typical homes run 4 to 5 bedrooms and 3 to 4 bathrooms, with living areas generally ranging from about 2,300 to 3,300 square feet. Styles lean toward traditional and contemporary, with some ranch-influenced designs, and interior layouts commonly feature kitchen islands with breakfast bars, open-concept family rooms, walk-in closets, and primary suites downstairs. Many homes also include a guest suite, built-in features, and spacious eat-in kitchens — details that reflect the thoughtful planning of this newer development. About half of the homes back to lake views, which is a meaningful distinction in a community this size. Prices range from the upper $400s into the mid-$600s, and HOA fees run semi-annually in a range that buyers should confirm during their search.

Amenities

Gran Lake Amenities & Community Features

Gran Lake's community amenities include a pool, clubhouse, fitness center, and playground — the core features residents use most often without leaving the neighborhood. A jogging path winds through the community, complemented by sidewalks, curbs, and street lights that make it easy to walk or run in the evenings. About half of the homes in Gran Lake back to water, so lake views are woven into the fabric of the neighborhood rather than reserved for a premium tier.

Location

Gran Lake Location & Commute

Gran Lake sits in the northwestern portion of St. Johns County, positioned close to the SR-16 and I-95 corridor that connects residents to both St. Augustine and northern St. Johns County. St. Augustine Premium Outlets are about 4 to 5 miles away, and the St. Augustine Historic District — with St. George Street, Castillo de San Marcos, and the waterfront — is roughly 11 miles south, a drive that takes about 15 to 20 minutes in typical traffic. For healthcare, Ascension St. Vincent's St. Johns County and Flagler Health+ Village at St. Augustine are both about 10 miles out. The closest beaches, including Vilano Beach and Anastasia State Park, are roughly 12 miles away, and Northeast Florida Regional Airport is about 9 miles from the community. The airport is a general-aviation field with no airline service, which makes it a perk if you fly your own plane or happen to own a jet; the rest of us drive to Jacksonville International.

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions about Gran Lake

Does Gran Lake have CDD fees?

No — Gran Lake does not carry CDD (Community Development District) fees, which is worth noting when comparing it to many other planned communities in St. Johns County where CDD assessments can add meaningfully to the monthly cost of ownership. Buyers should still account for the semi-annual HOA fees, which vary by home, and confirm current amounts with the HOA during due diligence.

What are the HOA fees in Gran Lake?

HOA fees in Gran Lake are paid semi-annually and vary depending on the specific home — the range across the community spans from roughly $780 to $1,740 semi-annually. These fees cover the community's pool, clubhouse, fitness center, playground, jogging path, and other shared infrastructure. I always recommend buyers request the current HOA documents to confirm the exact fee for their specific lot before going under contract.

Are there waterfront homes available in Gran Lake?

Yes — a meaningful share of Gran Lake homes back to a lake, and lakefront lots are a defining feature of this community. Homes with water views tend to reflect that positioning in their pricing within the community's overall range of the upper $400s into the mid-$600s. Because the community is relatively small, lakefront availability can shift quickly, so checking current listings is the best way to see what's on the market.

Does Gran Lake have a CDD?

No — Gran Lake carries no CDD assessment, confirmed by the tax bills on recent sales (millage only). The HOA runs about $145 a month (some sections bill annually or semi-annually — roughly $1,740 a year), and the community's identity is its namesake lake at the center of a compact, non-mega-plan neighborhood. Listings here currently report Picolata Crossing Elementary / Pacetti Bay / Tocoi Creek High — verify any specific address with the district. For buyers priced at the edge of the newer CDD communities, the no-district math here is real monthly money.

How much is my home in Gran Lake worth?

Start with the record, not a formula. An algorithm cannot see a renovated kitchen, a preserve lot or a roof from 2024, and in a neighborhood the size of Gran Lake those are the things that move a price. This page lists every new Gran Lake listing and recorded sale as it happens; follow it and the comps come to you. When you are ready for a number, I run the valuation personally against Gran Lake's actual closings.

What does it cost to sell a home in Gran Lake?

A few lines beyond the obvious ones. In Gran Lake, 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, and the association's estoppel letter, the fee every HOA charges to certify your account at closing. I put the full seller's net sheet in front of you before the sign goes up; the true-cost promise on this site runs in both directions.

How long does it take to sell a home in Gran Lake?

Two numbers answer it: the neighborhood's median and your home's position against the homes for sale the week you list. The first is on this page and changes with the season; the second decides whether you beat the median or trail it. Pricing against Gran Lake's live competition, not last year's average, is most of the work.
