Are single-story homes more expensive per square foot?
Often modestly, yes — a one-story home needs more roof and foundation per finished foot than a two-story of equal size. Buyers pay it willingly: single-story homes tend to hold value well because demand from rightsizing buyers never goes away.
Which St. Johns County communities are mostly single-story?
The 55+ communities — Del Webb Nocatee, Riverwood by Del Webb, Stillwater, WaterSong at RiverTown — are almost entirely single-story. Outside those, most large communities mix one- and two-story plans; this page keeps the filter on for you.
Is a single-story home better in Florida specifically?
There are practical arguments: simpler hurricane prep (one level of windows), easier roof maintenance and inspection, and HVAC systems that don’t fight a two-story stack in August. None decide it alone, but they all lean the same way.
Looking for single-story homes?
I’ll send new listings the moment they hit the market and walk through the details that don’t show up in the MLS — water access, HOA rules, what a feature really costs to maintain.
