Want to walk this lot this week?

Leave your number and I will call to set it up. Before we go I pull the flood zone, the survey and the utilities, so you know what you can build.

Krista Fracke, Broker Associate. You'll hear back from me directly, not from a call center.

About this lot

Green Cove Springs

2 parcels, one being 2.93 acres and the other parcel 5.48 acres - Approximately 8.5 acres total, mostly cleared. Zoned Agricultural/Residential with plenty of room to build and create your own slice of paradise with cows, horses, chickens. So much room, so many possibilities. Green Cove Springs offers access to the broader Jacksonville metropolitan area and the surrounding Northeast Florida markets, making it an area of interest for real estate buyers and investors. Clay electricity and utility easements border/on property. Buyer responsible for due diligence.

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.

Property taxesest. at asking price, Clay County$674
Estimated total, taxes and HOA$674/mo
Seller’s 2025 tax billper the MLS — includes any CDD / assessments$868/yr · $72/mo
  • • 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).

Read at the listing’s map pin. On a lot this size the zone can change across the property, and the pin may not be where the house stands.

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.

Krista can connect you with local insurance quotes before you make an offer.

As of November 2026, this Reality Check is informational only — it draws on FEMA/FDEM hazard layers, Florida DOH water records, and the listing’s own fields, read at the listing’s map pin or, on lots of an acre or more, across the county parcel (state cadastral). A zone shown for part of a lot may not be where the home stands. 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.

Around this address

Nearby, from public data

The closest public beach, park, water access, league fields and grocery store from this home's location.

Not from the MLS. Places from FWC, FDEP, the water districts, the counties and the cities; stores from state food permits and each chain’s store list. Distances are straight-line from this home unless a drive time is shown. Fees, hours and access change, so check the agency’s page before you go.

Cost to own

Taxes & assessment

2025 property taxes (current owner): $868/yr

Estimated taxes if purchased at asking price: ~$8,100/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 792 current Clay listings and includes typical non-ad-valorem assessments; actual taxes depend on exemptions and taxing district. Sources: Florida DOR certified tax roll, NEFMLS.
