About this home

Fernandina Beach

Welcome to a rare opportunity--a home that perfectly blends location, quality, and lifestyle. Custom designed and built by SEDA Homes just six years ago, this beautifully maintained, one-story residence has been used only as a second home, resulting in exceptionally light use. Located on Amelia Island--voted the #1 Best Island in the U.S. by Global Traveler magazine for three consecutive years--this home offers the quality and peace of mind of newer construction on a quiet street within the city limits of Fernandina Beach. Ideally situated less than a block from Central Park, you'll enjoy tennis and pickleball courts, baseball, pétanque, and a playground just outside your door. Spend the morning at the beach--only about one mile away--then bike or stroll a few blocks to Fernandina Beach's charming historic downtown, filled with locally owned shops, restaurants, & year-round events. Designed for effortless coastal living, the thoughtfully crafted open-concept floor plan features a

  • • 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).

Cost to own

Taxes & assessment

2025 property taxes (current owner): $10,207/yr

Estimated taxes if purchased at asking price: ~$12,400/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 435 current Nassau 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 C

Zone C evacuates after zones A, B in an approaching storm.

Roof: Shingle — year not disclosed (home built 2020)

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

Solar potential: ~1,504 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.
