About this home
Madeira
Everyone else is waiting on the builder. This one's already done. Built in 2024 and barely lived in, 203 Tesoro Terrace sits on a 70-foot lakefront homesite inside the gated Estate Section of the Marshes of Madeira -- with nearly $80,000 in upgrades already in and the price recently improved. No build time. No decisions. No surprises. Just move in and start living. Main living is all on one level. Engineered hardwood floors, 10-foot ceilings, 8-foot doors, and 12-foot sliders that open straight to the water. The kitchen is built for the way you actually cook and entertain -- white shaker cabinets, black island, white quartz, large six-burner gas cooktop, Electrolux double wall oven, and a fully outfitted prep kitchen with its own quartz counters and mosaic hex backsplash right alongside it. Out back, it's resort-style living every single day. East-facing heated saltwater pool with water features and sunrise views every morning.

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, SilverLeaf, eTown…), bond assessments are collected on the property-tax bill — the tax estimate above reflects county averages, so confirm this home’s exact CDD with us.
- • 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.

Estimated taxes if purchased at asking price: ~$16,400/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.

Storms & insurance
Florida Reality Check
The storm-and-insurance facts every Florida buyer should know up front.
Zone AE — high-risk flood zone (Special Flood Hazard Area)
Lenders require flood insurance for financed purchases here.
Flood damage is not covered by standard homeowners insurance — it’s always a separate policy.
Hurricane evacuation zone A
Zone A evacuates first in a storm — typically coastal and surge-prone areas.
Roof: Shingle — year not disclosed (home built 2024)
Roof age drives Florida insurance pricing more than anything else — worth confirming before you offer.
Solar potential: ~1,723 usable sun-hours per year
A strong solar roof by Florida standards — worth pricing panels if energy bills matter to you.
