About this home

Julington Creek

Where Thoughtful Design Meets Everyday Living Before it was a home, it was a vision: soaring ceilings, natural light around every corner, and a layout designed for connection, comfort, and space to grow. Today, that vision is ready for its next chapter—and it may be exactly what you've been searching for. Located in one of St. Johns County's most desirable communities—Julington Creek Plantation—this two-story residence offers a rare blend of elegance and livability. From the moment you walk in, the 20-foot ceilings and dramatic staircase create an unforgettable first impression. The open-concept layout flows seamlessly from the spacious kitchen to the main living area and out into an expansive backyard—ideal for entertaining, relaxing, or planning a future pool. Upstairs, a versatile loft offers the perfect space for a home office, creative studio, or media lounge.

Cost to own

True monthly cost

What this home actually costs per month at the asking price — not just the mortgage.

Principal & interest20% down · 7.4% · 30yr$3,407
Property taxesest. at asking price, St. Johns County$818
HOAbilled annually$47
Estimated total, before insurance$4,272/mo
Seller’s 2024 tax billper the MLS — includes any CDD / assessments$5,014/yr · $418/mo
  • • 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 (that applies to the reference bill above too).

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 2003)

Roof age drives Florida insurance pricing more than anything else — worth confirming before you offer.

Solar potential: ~1,677 usable sun-hours per year

A strong solar roof by Florida standards — worth pricing panels if energy bills matter to you.

Krista can connect you with local insurance quotes before you make an offer.

Ask about this home

This 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.

Sun & Light

East-facing backyard — the morning-light lot

The listing reports the home facing west, which puts the backyard on the east side. Today at this address: sunrise 7:26 AM, sunset 7:00 PM.

  • The rear takes the sunrise and the gentle morning sun, then goes shaded through the afternoon — the classic comfortable-summer-evening lanai in Florida.
  • A pool back here warms with the morning and sits in shade by late afternoon: cooler water than a west lot, and evening swims without the glare.
  • The front of the home carries the hot western afternoon instead of your living space.

Orientation per the MLS listing; sun paths are seasonal geometry for Northeast Florida, not a shade study — trees, screening, and neighboring structures change the picture on any specific lot.

Cost to own

Taxes & assessment

2024 property taxes (current owner): $5,014/yr

Estimated taxes if purchased at asking price: ~$9,800/yr

Florida’s Save Our Homes cap limits how fast the current owner’s assessment can rise — and it resets when a home sells, so a buyer’s tax bill is typically based on the purchase price, not the seller’s bill above. Estimate uses the median effective rate across 1,595 current St. Johns listings and includes typical non-ad-valorem assessments; actual taxes depend on exemptions and taxing district.
