About this home
Atlantic Beach
Completely reimagined and flawlessly executed, this Atlantic Beach residence delivers the ultimate blend of modern design, coastal sophistication, and effortless indoor-outdoor living. From the moment you arrive, the elevated curb appeal sets the tone--featuring a redesigned entry, expanded driveway with additional parking, copper lantern lighting, and all-new Pella windows. The backyard has been transformed into a private retreat with lush turf and curated landscaping, while the rear porch is enhanced with retractable screens for year-round enjoyment. A hidden speakeasy-style space downstairs adds a rare and unexpected element of character and entertainment. Inside, the home opens to a stunning, light-filled floor plan where clean lines meet warm coastal textures. Structural steel beams paired with pecky cypress accents create a striking architectural statement, while wide-plank wood floors in a soft, natural tone flow throughout.

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.
Zone X — minimal flood hazard
Flood insurance is typically not required by lenders (always optional).
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 1997)
Roof age drives Florida insurance pricing more than anything else — worth confirming before you offer.
Likely sewer
County records indicate this parcel on central sewer — no septic system to inspect or maintain.
Source: Florida DOH Water Management Inventory (public record).
Solar potential: ~1,808 usable sun-hours per year
A strong solar roof by Florida standards — worth pricing panels if energy bills matter to you.

Ask about this homeAs of July 2026, 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.
