About this home
Jacksonville
Welcome to 12407 Valparaiso Trail, a private retreat tucked away at the end of a cul-de-sac in Jacksonville's Mandarin area. Set on a spacious 90-foot lot, this home offers privacy & security with minimal traffic and the peace of knowing who is coming down the street. The backyard is designed for entertaining and relaxation, featuring a screened-in, Diamond Brite resurfaced pool, new electric pool heater for year-round swimming, a disappearing screen wall that opens the living space outdoors, a nearly regulation sized concrete shuffleboard court, RV parking, and grilling deck. Inside, the split and open floor plan offers plenty of room to entertain. The chef's kitchen features subway tile, Kentucky black granite countertops, and updated stainless steel appliances. Additional highlights include a state of the art whole home air filtration system designed with allergy and hypoallergenic living in mind, plus a gentleman's garage with custom racks, workbenches, and built-in storage.
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).

Storms & insurance
Florida Reality Check
The storm-and-insurance facts every Florida buyer should know up front.
Flood zone not yet determined
Check the exact parcel at msc.fema.gov or ask Krista to pull it.
Flood damage is not covered by standard homeowners insurance — it’s always a separate policy.
Evacuation zone not yet determined
Check floridadisaster.org/knowyourzone.
Roof: Shingle — year not disclosed (home built 1986)
Roof age drives Florida insurance pricing more than anything else — worth confirming before you offer.
Solar potential: ~1,494 usable sun-hours per year
Moderate solar exposure — shade or roof orientation limits panel output here.
Krista can connect you with local insurance quotes before you make an offer.
Ask about this homeThis 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.

Taxes & assessment
2025 property taxes (current owner): $4,169/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.
