About this home
Fleming Island
Welcome to 1479 Scarlet Way—an elegant, beautifully updated 4BR/3BA home in coveted Hibernia Plantation. Surrounded by majestic oaks, this Fleming Island retreat offers timeless charm and modern living. A circular drive and private driveway lead to an ample 2-car garage with storage and extra parking. Inside, hand-scraped wood floors, refined lighting, and a custom wrought-iron staircase set a stunning tone. The main level opens to a covered, screened outdoor living and dining area overlooking the sparkling pool, heated spa, and lush, private backyard. The kitchen features new appliances, countertops, sink, backsplash, and floating shelves. A fully reimagined owner's suite bath, updated systems, and beautifully refreshed interiors elevate the home throughout. Outdoor enhancements include new pavers, fencing, landscape, porch flooring, exterior paint, covered gutters, and solar-heated spa. Direct access to the private neighborhood trail and riverfront deck is just steps away.
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 (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 1993)
Roof age drives Florida insurance pricing more than anything else — worth confirming before you offer.
Solar potential: ~1,503 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 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.

Not from the MLS. Places from FWC, FDEP, the water districts, the counties and the cities; stores from state food permits and each chain’s store list. Distances are straight-line from this home unless a drive time is shown. Fees, hours and access change, so check the agency’s page before you go.
Sun & Light
South-facing backyard — the year-round light lot
The listing reports the home facing north, which puts the backyard and pool on the south side. Today at this address: sunrise 7:33 AM, sunset 6:49 PM.
- A pool back here takes sun most of the day, which means warmer water in the shoulder seasons and the most useful screened-lanai light for plants.
- The rear gets sun through the day in every season — in winter, the low southern sun keeps the lanai and yard bright when north-facing yards go flat.
- Summer afternoons are strong but not the direct western blast — shade sails or lanai screening handle it.
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
2025 property taxes (current owner): $5,669/yr
Estimated taxes if purchased at asking price: ~$15,200/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 792 current Clay listings and includes typical non-ad-valorem assessments; actual taxes depend on exemptions and taxing district. Sources: Florida DOR certified tax roll, NEFMLS.
