About this home
St. Johns
Over half an acre with a pool and no HOA, at the end of a dead-end street in Natures Hammock, a neighborhood on the St. Johns River! This single-story brick home is all original and in great condition, with tons of potential to make it your own! It needs a little love, but the location is priceless! The home sits back from the road under mature oaks, with a fully fenced backyard built around a free-form pool and a wide concrete deck. Inside are 4 bedrooms, 2 baths and 2,114 square feet: a formal living room and dining room at the front, and a family room with a brick fireplace that opens to the kitchen and breakfast nook, both looking out to the pool. The primary suite measures 19 x 17, with a double vanity, a walk-in closet and its own bath. One of the three other bedrooms has a full wall of built-in shelving. The oversized garage runs more than 32 feet deep. Built in 1977 on a 0.51-acre lot in the St. Johns County School District, with no HOA dues!

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.
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.
Hurricane evacuation zone A
Zone A evacuates first in a storm — typically coastal and surge-prone areas.
Roof: Shingle — year not disclosed (home built 1977)
Roof age drives Florida insurance pricing more than anything else — worth confirming before you offer.
Solar potential: ~1,281 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.
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.

Taxes & assessment
2025 property taxes (current owner): $2,144/yr
Estimated taxes if purchased at asking price: ~$8,200/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 1,526 current St. Johns listings and includes typical non-ad-valorem assessments; actual taxes depend on exemptions and taxing district.
