About this lot
Palm Valley
Tucked in a private enclave with only a handful of other homes to be built, this 1.04 acre custom building site is located at the very end of the drive and is the most private of all available. With the site's generous width (140') and depth (324'), there are virtually endless possibilities for laying out your new home, garages, a pool, gardens, sports court, accessory buildings, etc. Majestic, centuries-old Live Oak trees dot the landscape creating a serene, park-like setting. The community is surrounded by long-established neighborhoods of $1M-$3M+ luxury homes, yet remains free of HOA fees, CDD fees, and overly restrictive architectural controls - giving you exceptional freedom to create exactly the estate you envision. In only a few steps from your new residence is a county-maintained sidewalk that directly connects you to many awesome nearby destinations in Ponte Vedra Beach including a public BEACH at Mickler's Landing, a YMCA gym, Publix grocery store

Cost to own
Carrying cost
What holding this lot costs per month at the asking price. Land loans run on different terms than a home mortgage, so the payment is left out; ask for current lot-loan terms.
- • 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.

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.
