What $750k buys in St. Augustine right now: three homes, compared.
Across St. Augustine’s neighboring subdivisions, 50 homes are for sale at or under $750k today, at a median of $400,000. The three below are picked by rule, not by anyone’s preference: the most space, the newest, and the best price per square foot, each a different home, compared on the facts the MLS carries. The brief underneath is mine.

The brief
At $750k in and around the city of St. Augustine the trade is water against age: a Davis Shores or Nelmar Terrace home a short walk from downtown with a high-risk flood zone and a 1950s roofline, or a newer Entrada or Royal St. Augustine home on the mainland in Zone X with a longer drive to the plaza. The three homes below show the spread as it stands today.

What this budget forces you to decide here
Walkable and wet, or dry and driven
The historic peninsula and Davis Shores sit in AE zones with the earliest evacuation letters; the mainland subdivisions read Zone X. Both are honest purchases with different quotes.
Roof, panel, plumbing
The city’s stock runs 1920s to 1970s; those three items decide the insurer, and they belong in every offer.
Short-term rental rules
The city zones short-term rentals by district. If the home is also an investment, the zoning map matters more than the listing remarks.

Common questions
Is $750k enough to buy in St. Augustine?
The live count at the top of this page is the honest answer for today: every home for sale across these neighboring subdivisions at or under $750k, with the median. The three homes below are picked from that set by rule (most space, newest, best price per square foot), so what you see is what the money buys this week, not a brochure.
How are the three homes chosen?
By rule, from every marketable listing in the ring at or under the budget: the largest living area, the newest build year, and the lowest price per square foot, each a different home. The set refreshes with the feed. No home is featured by arrangement and no listing agent is involved in the pick.
Does Davis Shores flood?
Much of it maps to high-risk FEMA zones and it has flooded in the 2016 and 2017 storms. The St. Augustine flood page shows the live zone mix by neighborhood, and every listing on this site shows its own zone and evacuation zone.
