About this home
St. Augustine
Thoughtfully reimagined in 2023, this exceptional riverfront retreat blends timeless elegance with modern comfort while showcasing breathtaking views of the St. Johns River. Set on an extraordinary .44 acre homesite with nearly 300 feet of protected shoreline and a sound bulkhead, this property offers a rare opportunity to experience waterfront living at its finest. Designed to embrace the beauty of its surroundings, the outdoor spaces are just as impressive as the home itself. Spend evenings gathered around the riverside fire pit as the sun sets over the water, or enjoy effortless days on the river with a private dock featuring a 36 foot covered boat lift on the river and an additional 28 foot boat lift in the protected canal. Inside, the beautifully remodeled three bedroom, two bathroom home offers nearly 2,000 square feet of heated and cooled living space, thoughtfully designed to maximize comfort and capture an abundance of natural light.

Cost to own

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.
Cost to own
Taxes & assessment
2025 property taxes (current owner): $6,938/yr
Estimated taxes if purchased at asking price: ~$12,000/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 1995)
Roof age drives Florida insurance pricing more than anything else — worth confirming before you offer.
Septic system (public record) · Private well (public record)
County records indicate an onsite septic system — budget a septic inspection before closing (typically $300–$500) and expect pump-outs every 3–5 years.
Source: Florida DOH Water Management Inventory (public record).
Solar potential: ~1,713 usable sun-hours per year
A strong solar roof by Florida standards — worth pricing panels if energy bills matter to you.
