About this lot
Jacksonville
Rare opportunity to own a canal-front lot in the desirable Del Rio community of Mandarin. This waterfront property features a private dock with navigable access to Julington Creek and the St. Johns River, existing electrical service, and an attractive paver patio, making it ideal for boating, fishing, kayaking, or simply enjoying the waterfront lifestyle. The property is currently rented for $400 per month through the end of the year, providing immediate income potential. The adjacent canal-front lot is also available for purchase, offering the opportunity to expand your waterfront footprint. Buyer is responsible for verifying zoning, buildability, utility availability, flood zone requirements, and all intended uses with the appropriate governmental authorities. 2nd lot is available for sale next to this one. 0 Hide a way Drive MLS #: 2163853

Cost to own
Carrying cost
What holding this lot costs per month at the asking price. Land loans run on different terms than a home mortgage, so the payment is left out; ask for current lot-loan terms.
- • 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 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.
Krista can connect you with local insurance quotes before you make an offer.
Ask about this homeAs of September 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.
