About this home
Springfield
Within the gated privacy of Hoyt Terrace, a rare enclave of historic single-family homes in Springfield, this impeccably maintained 1906 residence offers an experience that is equal parts elegance and ease. Thoughtfully updated over the years to balance historic character with modern comfort, the home features updated systems, hardwood floors, a classic fireplace, and wraparound porches that invite the kind of slow, unhurried living this neighborhood rewards. A first-floor primary suite with soaking tub brings genuine modern luxury to the footprint, now 1,958 square feet across two stories. Lush, mature landscaping with fountains and lighted pathways frames the property and flows into the shared private courtyard that defines life in Hoyt Terrace, a lifestyle found nowhere else in Jacksonville's historic districts. Three bedrooms, two and a half baths, a 4th sitting room/office/bedroom (no closet), and a setting that simply cannot be replicated. Gated. Private. Historic. Elegant. Rare.

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: Metal — year not disclosed (home built 1906)
Roof age drives Florida insurance pricing more than anything else — worth confirming before you offer.
Solar potential: ~1,697 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.
Sun & Light
East-facing backyard — the morning-light lot
The listing reports the home facing west, which puts the backyard on the east side. Today at this address: sunrise 7:26 AM, sunset 7:00 PM.
- The rear takes the sunrise and the gentle morning sun, then goes shaded through the afternoon — the classic comfortable-summer-evening lanai in Florida.
- A pool back here warms with the morning and sits in shade by late afternoon: cooler water than a west lot, and evening swims without the glare.
- The front of the home carries the hot western afternoon instead of your living space.
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.

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 3,305 current Duval listings and includes typical non-ad-valorem assessments; actual taxes depend on exemptions and taxing district.
