About this home
Melrose
Charming and thoughtfully renovated, this 3BR/2BA site-built home sits on a beautiful half acre in a sought-after Keystone Heights location and offers a cozy, cottage-inspired aesthetic with exceptional attention to detail. Originally built in 2000, the home was recently expanded and updated to enhance both character and comfort. The spacious primary suite addition features a generous bedroom, private bath, and large walk-in closet, creating a peaceful retreat while maintaining the home's inviting, rustic charm. Upgrades throughout include new flooring, interior and exterior doors, new lighting and fans, a spacious covered front porch, and much more. Every update was carefully chosen to preserve warmth and personality, making this home feel both timeless and welcoming. This property offers a rare opportunity to enjoy character, modern improvements, and space to breathe- both inside and out.
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 2000)
Roof age drives Florida insurance pricing more than anything else — worth confirming before you offer.
Solar potential: ~1,633 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.
