A note on how I work this area: Laurelton sits beyond the St. Johns County and Beaches corridor I serve street-by-street every day. The data here is real and current, and when you are ready to tour or list, I will introduce you to the colleague at my Christie's International Real Estate office who knows this market best — and stay involved as your advocate from first call to closing.

Floor plans typically offer 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms across roughly 2,400 to 3,100 square feet of living space.

Carrying costs vary lot to lot in communities like this, so I verify the current association and district numbers per home rather than quote a page figure.

Questions
Frequently Asked Questions about Laurelton
What are the HOA fees in Laurelton, and what do they cover?
Carrying costs vary lot to lot in communities like this, so I verify the current association and district numbers per home rather than quote a page figure. That covers community amenities including the pool, pickleball courts, jogging path, dog park, playground, sidewalks, and street lights. It's a relatively modest annual figure compared to many master-planned communities, though buyers should still confirm the exact fee and any CDD or additional assessments with the builder or seller before closing.
How far is Laurelton from the beach?
The closest beach options are Vilano Beach and Mickler's Landing, both roughly 25 miles from the neighborhood — about a 30-to-35-minute drive depending on traffic. Vilano Beach has a relaxed, low-key feel with less development, while Mickler's Landing offers easy parking and classic Northeast Florida shoreline. Neither is a daily errand, but both are a reasonable weekend destination.
What hospitals are near Laurelton in Green Cove Springs?
The closest major facility is Baptist Medical Center South, about 18 miles away in the Southside/Mandarin area of Jacksonville. Flagler Health+ Village at St. Augustine is roughly 22 miles to the southeast, and Mayo Clinic Florida's campus is about 23 miles away. Buyers who prioritize proximity to a hospital should factor those drive times into their planning, particularly for routine specialist visits.
