About this home
Jacksonville
What if the expensive updates were already done? Set on a private .32-acre cul-de-sac lot with peaceful preserve and water views, this beautifully updated 2,104 sq ft home offers move-in-ready living without a long list of projects waiting after closing. If you're comparing homes in this price range, look beyond the list price and consider what you'll need to replace, repair or update after closing--at 12029 Cavalry Court, much of that work has already been done. Major improvements include a newer roof (2020), energy-efficient windows (2026), Trane 100% variable-speed HVAC (2022), Performance Platinum hybrid heat-pump water heater (2024), whole-home water softener, fresh interior paint and updated exterior. Inside, soaring ceilings and abundant natural light create an open, airy feel. Luxury vinyl plank flooring flows through the main living areas with new carpet in the bedrooms. The updated kitchen opens to the living space and features granite countertops, refinished soft-close

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).

Taxes & assessment
2025 property taxes (current owner): $3,879/yr
Estimated taxes if purchased at asking price: ~$10,500/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 3,305 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 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.
Outside all hurricane evacuation zones
This location is not in a designated storm-surge evacuation zone.
Roof: Shingle — 2020 per the listing
A recent roof is the single biggest lever on Florida homeowners-insurance pricing.
Sewer & public water · JEA
County records show this parcel on central sewer served by JEA — no septic system to inspect or maintain.
Source: Florida DOH Water Management Inventory (public record).
Solar potential: ~1,801 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.
