About this home
Keystone Heights
You can feel the care and attention to detail the moment you step into this beautifully custom-built 3 bedroom, 2 bath home. Perfectly situated on a half-acre corner lot just across from Silver Lake, this home offers a peaceful setting with peekaboo views of the water and a layout designed for comfortable living. Inside, the open floor plan is bright and welcoming, with 9-foot ceilings throughout and an even more spacious feel in the living area, where the ceilings reach 10 feet. The owner's suite is a true retreat with its tray ceiling, stylish accent wall, and a gorgeous walk-in shower featuring double shower heads and custom tile work. Every space is thoughtfully designed—right down to the custom lighting that adds a touch of charm throughout the home. Step outside to enjoy the front and back porches, both finished with beautiful pine ceilings that give the perfect hint of Southern character. This home wasn't just built—it was crafted by owners who truly poured
Cost to own
True monthly cost
What this home actually costs per month at the asking price — not just the mortgage.
- • 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.

Storms & insurance
Florida Reality Check
The storm-and-insurance facts every Florida buyer should know up front.
Flood zone not yet determined
Check the exact parcel at msc.fema.gov or ask Krista to pull it.
Flood damage is not covered by standard homeowners insurance — it’s always a separate policy.
Evacuation zone not yet determined
Check floridadisaster.org/knowyourzone.
Roof: Shingle — year not disclosed (home built 2025)
Roof age drives Florida insurance pricing more than anything else — worth confirming before you offer.
Solar potential: ~1,155 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.
Ask about this homeThis Reality Check is informational only — it draws on FEMA/FDEM hazard layers, Florida DOH water records, and the listing’s own fields at this property’s coordinates. 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.
