About this home

Baldwin

Ready to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life but yet be in a convenient location to Jacksonville? This beautiful 3 bedroom 2 bath home is completely remodeled is located in the quiet town of Baldwin on a corner lot! Only 20 minutes from downtown Jacksonville, right next to I-10 and 301. This home offers plenty of space with a florida room and office space in garage that could be also utilized as a music studio or workshop! The roof and A/C are less than 6 years old and the kitchen features stainless steel appliances. The backyard is fully fenced and has plenty of room for toys!

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$1,490
Property taxesest. at asking price, Duval County$439
Estimated total, before insurance$1,929/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.

*30-year loan at 7.4% APR (avg 30-yr rate 2026-10-08, Freddie Mac PMMS via FRED). Taxes use the county effective rate; insurance is a rough estimate — Florida premiums swing with roof age and flood zone (see the Reality Check). Actual costs may vary.

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.

Outside all hurricane evacuation zones

This location is not in a designated storm-surge evacuation zone.

Roof: Shingle — year not disclosed (home built 1948)

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

Sewer records conflict — verify

The MLS lists “Public Sewer”, while Florida DOH records suggest an onsite septic system. Don’t rely on either — confirm the actual system, and if septic is possible, budget an inspection, before you offer.

Sources: MLS listing + Florida DOH Water Management Inventory (public record).

Solar potential: ~1,609 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

As of August 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.
