About this home

St. Johns

Set on an oversized 0.29-acre homesite in RiverTown, this beautifully designed residence offers something increasingly hard to find: space, privacy, and no neighboring home directly beside you on one side. Surrounded by lush greenery, the backyard feels like a private retreat, complete with a screened-in paver patio, hot tub, automatic shades, and a separate fire pit area made for evenings outdoors. Inside, 2,305 square feet offers three bedrooms, two-and-a-half bathrooms, a dedicated office, upstairs loft, and a rare three-car garage. Beyond the home, RiverTown brings resort-style living to your doorstep with the RiverClub and RiverLodge, riverfront and lap pools, a lazy river, café and bar, game room, pickleball, tennis and basketball courts, scenic trails, dog parks, playgrounds, and gathering spaces along the St. Johns River. It's the perfect combination of an incredible homesite, added privacy, outdoor living, and a community designed to make everyday life feel like vacation.

Cost to own

True monthly cost

What this home actually costs per month at the asking price — not just the mortgage.

Principal & interest20% down · 7.32% · 30yr$3,022

Property taxesest. at asking price, St. Johns County$732

HOAbilled annually$4

Estimated total, before insurance$3,759/mo

Seller’s 2025 tax billper the MLS — includes any CDD / assessments$6,826/yr · $569/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 (that applies to the reference bill above too).

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 2019)

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

Solar potential: ~1,727 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.

Cost to own

Taxes & assessment

2025 property taxes (current owner): $6,826/yr

Estimated taxes if purchased at asking price: ~$8,800/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 1,595 current St. Johns listings and includes typical non-ad-valorem assessments; actual taxes depend on exemptions and taxing district.
