SilverLeaf Homes For Sale

About 95% of SilverLeaf homes sit in FEMA Zone X, the minimal-risk designation that does not require mandatory flood insurance. The remaining share — typically waterfront or water-adjacent homes — fall in higher-risk flood zones where a lender will require flood insurance. Always confirm the specific flood zone for any individual property before you write an offer.

SilverLeaf is served by the St. Johns County School District. Depending on the specific address, elementary students may attend Liberty Pines Academy, Wards Creek, or Magnolia Oaks Academy; middle schoolers Pacetti Bay or Liberty Pines Academy; and high schoolers Tocoi Creek High School. Confirm the current assigned schools for any address, since attendance zones can change.

SilverLeaf offers a wide price range. Homes and townhomes start from the low $300s, and larger single-family estates reach up to roughly $1.5 million. Sizes run from about 1,289 to 4,757 square feet with 2 to 6 bedrooms, so pricing depends heavily on floor plan, lot, and finishes.

There is no CDD in SilverLeaf — and in St. Johns County’s master-plan market, that is the headline: while most large communities here carry a district assessment on the tax bill, SilverLeaf’s developer built without district financing. What you pay instead is a layered HOA. The master association runs about $1,200 a year on most single-family listings; some gated enclaves carry their own line (Evergreen Island listings currently show $2,000 a year); townhome sections run roughly $233–$394 a month with exterior and lawn care bundled in; and Reverie, the gated 55+ village by Toll Brothers inside SilverLeaf, runs about $364–$400 a month with its own amenity campus. Every figure above comes from live MLS listings in this community, and the right comparison is always total carry — a no-CDD home with a $2,000 HOA can still cost less to hold than a CDD community with a $50 HOA. I run that math for buyers on every home.

Yes. SilverLeaf is an active new-construction community within the larger SilverLeaf master plan near St. Augustine, with a large share of newly built homes and construction years including 2022, 2025, and 2026. It offers both single-family homes and townhomes, several within a gated setting, and includes homes offered in an active-adult (55+) format.

Yes — at the community’s own scale. SilverLeaf’s luxury tier is its custom and semi-custom builds, concentrated in the gated villages (Newbrook, Hidden Creek, and Evergreen Island), where the largest homes currently ask into the low $1 millions. That’s a different product than the multi-million estate market closer to the coast: what SilverLeaf’s top tier offers is a brand-new custom build, estate-scale lots by village standards, and the community’s signature financial advantage — no CDD fee, which saves owners thousands a year against comparable master plans.

At any given time roughly a dozen SilverLeaf listings ask above $1 million, with the top of the market currently in the $1.2–$1.4 million range — typically the largest floor plans on the biggest lots inside the gated villages. Buyers shopping this tier often cross-shop SilverLeaf’s new-build value against established communities nearer the ocean; the honest comparison is total cost of ownership, where SilverLeaf’s no-CDD structure works strongly in its favor. If you want to see only the top tier, say so — it’s a short list and it moves.

Silverleaf does not carry CDD fees, which sets it apart from many of the larger master-planned communities in St. Johns County. HOA fees do apply and range from about $105 to $1,850 annually depending on the section and home type — buyers should confirm the specific fee for any home they're considering, as it can vary across the community.

Yes — Silverleaf is an actively building community, and new construction makes up a significant share of what comes to market here. Toll Brothers is among the builders with active offerings, and homes range from townhomes to larger single-family plans. Since build timelines and availability shift frequently, it's worth connecting with an agent who can track what's coming to market and which phases are currently selling.

Every big master plan in the county funds its amenities differently, and the HOA line alone will mislead you on all five. Julington Creek: the CDD owns the amenities outright — rec center, water park, Sportsplex — and charges $1,385/yr for a single-family home (FY2025 adopted), one of the county’s most modest district lines because the build-out is long financed; HOA about $580/yr. Aberdeen: HOA about $50/yr, with the Aberdeen CDD carrying the amenity structure at roughly $1,994–$2,803/yr scaled by lot width (FY2026 adopted budget). Murabella: the same inversion — HOA $50–$150/yr, Murabella CDD on the order of $2,800/yr. Markland: a real POA plus the Southaven CDD at roughly $3,000–$3,500/yr scaled by lot width. Silverleaf: the outlier — no CDD at all, with a master HOA near $1,200/yr plus sub-neighborhood dues by section. Every figure comes from the districts’ own adopted budgets or live MLS listings, and the lesson is the same everywhere: compare total carry — HOA plus district line plus taxes — not the association sticker. I run that side-by-side for buyers deciding between these communities.

They’re the corridor’s two giants, and they fund themselves in opposite ways. RiverTown runs on the CDD model: a ~$53-a-year HOA, with the Rivers Edge districts carrying the amenity campuses on the tax bill — roughly $2,000–$4,900 a year for most single-family homes depending on lot width and phase, per the district’s own FY2026 budget. SilverLeaf is the no-CDD outlier: no district line at all, with a master HOA near $1,200 a year plus sub-neighborhood dues by section. Neither is automatically cheaper — a RiverTown home’s total carry can beat a SilverLeaf home’s once you add SilverLeaf’s sub-association tiers, and the reverse is just as common. What you’re actually choosing is amenity model (RiverTown’s riverfront campuses vs SilverLeaf’s spread of village parks) and bill structure (tax bill vs association dues). I run the true side-by-side — HOA plus district line plus taxes — for every buyer deciding between them.

The honest answer is a range until someone walks the house. Over the two years to September 2026, 104 Silverleaf homes closed through the MLS at a median of $601,100. The spread inside Silverleaf comes from lot, condition and timing, and a public estimate flattens all of that into a ZIP-code average. Follow this page and every Silverleaf listing, price change and recorded sale reaches you as it posts. For the real number, I prepare a valuation against Silverleaf's recent sales, free and without obligation.

It depends on the market you list into, not the one you read about. The 104 Silverleaf sales recorded over the two years to September 2026 spent a median of 49 days on the market. The snapshot on this page tracks Silverleaf's pace from live MLS activity rather than a static average, and it shifts: a tight-inventory spring and a heavy-inventory fall give different answers. Before setting a price or a timeline, I read Silverleaf's current pace, how recent sales closed against their list prices, and what your home's competition looks like the week we launch.

A few lines beyond the obvious ones. In Silverleaf, plan on the commission you and I agree on, Florida's documentary stamp tax on the deed (70 cents per $100 of price), title and closing charges that follow local custom, the association's estoppel letter, and the community development district line, which is prorated at closing and disclosed to your buyer; handled correctly it is paperwork, handled late it stalls a contract. I put the full seller's net sheet in front of you before the sign goes up; the true-cost promise on this site runs in both directions.
