About this home

Jacksonville

Welcome home... but fair warning -- this 3-bedroom, 2-bath beauty (approx. 1,450 sq ft) on a .17-acre lot delivers exactly what buyers want: easy living inside and a backyard that steals the show. From the moment you arrive, you'll notice the eye-catching curb appeal and inviting covered front porch. Inside, the layout just works -- bright, open, and filled with natural light, with wood flooring throughout most of the home and a dedicated indoor laundry room where it should be. One of the most unique features? A true ''room within a room'' -- flexible space for a home office, hobby setup, or creative retreat, finished with distinctive Torrente tile that gives it real character. But let's be honest... the backyard is why you're here. Step outside to your own private setup -- a sparkling pool, oversized paver patio, and covered pergola seating area that's ready for entertaining or just unwinding at the end of the day.

Cost to own

True monthly cost

What this home actually costs per month at the asking price — not just the mortgage.

Principal & interest20% down · 7.4% · 30yr$1,994
Property taxesest. at asking price, Duval County$588
Estimated total, before insurance$2,582/mo
Seller’s 2025 tax billper the MLS — includes any CDD / assessments$1,532/yr · $128/mo
  • • 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: Shingle — year not disclosed (home built 1961)

Roof age drives Florida insurance pricing more than anything else — worth confirming before you offer.

Solar potential: ~1,556 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 home

This 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.

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.
