About this home
Welcome to this beautifully maintained single-story, all-brick 4-bedroom, 2-bath pool home in the heart of Mandarin, just off Julington Creek Road. With no HOA, and no CDD fees, this home gives you the freedom to make the property your own. The updated kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, added cabinetry in the breakfast nook, and custom cabinet lighting. Bamboo wood floors and a wood-burning fireplace add warmth and character, while the front flex room offers endless possibilities as a formal living room, home office, homeschool space, playroom, or sitting area. Step outside to a screened lanai overlooking the sparkling pool and fully fenced backyard, complete with mature orange, lemon and lime trees and a peaceful atmosphere that's ideal for birdwatching. The oversized side yard offers potential for future boat or RV parking. All of this is tucked away in the heart of Mandarin, just minutes from shopping, dining, parks, and top-rated schools.

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.

Taxes & assessment
| Year | Market value | Taxable value | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | $380,520 | $191,257 | ▼ $10,876 |
2025 property taxes (current owner): $3,940/yr
Estimated taxes if purchased at asking price: ~$9,800/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 3,908 current Duval 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 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 1990)
Roof age drives Florida insurance pricing more than anything else — worth confirming before you offer.
Solar potential: ~1,318 usable sun-hours per year
Moderate solar exposure — shade or roof orientation limits panel output here.
