About this home
Green Cove Springs
**Sellers' Concessions $5,000**toward buyer's C.C. Boasting nearly an acre and a half, this one-of-a-kind property blends historic charm with modern comfort. Originally built in 1906 near downtown Jacksonville, the home was thoughtfully relocated to its current setting in the mid-1980s, where it was renovated and expanded to create the perfect balance of character and convenience. Inside, you'll find original wood floors, crown molding, and a charming fireplace that reflect the home's rich history, along with inviting screened porches that offer the perfect spot to relax year-round. The 3-bedroom, 2-bath layout provides comfortable living with the updates today's buyers expect. Step outside to enjoy the spacious rear deck overlooking the expansive backyard - ideal for entertaining or simply soaking in the peaceful surroundings. The property also features a large, powered workshop/storage building with covered parking, plus a chicken coop for those seeking a touch of country living
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).

Taxes & assessment
2025 property taxes (current owner): $3,829/yr
Estimated taxes if purchased at asking price: ~$6,300/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.
