About this home
St. Augustine
Live in the heart of historic St. Augustine in this 1900's cottage on a corner lot in the Abbott Tract. The current owner bought it as a vacation rental, then loved it enough to move in instead. Stroll to the Castillo de San Marcos, the bayfront, and the shops and cafés on San Marco Avenue, then come home to driveway parking, a rare find downtown. The enclosed front porch makes a sunny office or reading nook. Warm wood floors run through a living and dining space spanning the width of the house, anchored by a fireplace. The renovated kitchen pairs a bead board ceiling and shiplap walls with a workstation sink and stacked laundry. The updated bath offers a walk-in glass tile shower and floating wood vanity. Step outside to a private brick courtyard. Metal roof, central air, no HOA or CDD. Full-time home, second home, or investment; short-term rental buyers should confirm current City of St. Augustine requirements. Room measurements are approximate; please verify any that matter to you.
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: Metal — year not disclosed (home built 1930)
Roof age drives Florida insurance pricing more than anything else — worth confirming before you offer.
Solar potential: ~1,590 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 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): $7,930/yr
Estimated taxes if purchased at asking price: ~$8,600/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.
