What this budget forces you to decide here
Island or mainland side
Fernandina Beach addresses cover both. The island carries the beach, the harbor and the coastal quote; the mainland side carries golf, newer homes and Zone X.
A 1900s house or a 2000s one
The historic district’s Victorian stock and the 2000s mainland plans price insurance very differently. Roof, wiring and elevation decide it on the island.
Condo rules
The near-ocean condo tier carries the building’s reserves and its short-term-rental rules, which differ by building and by zoning.

Common questions
Is $800k enough to buy in Amelia Island & Fernandina Beach?
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 $800k, 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.
Is Amelia National on Amelia Island?
No. Amelia National, North Hampton, Amelia Walk and Flora Parke are on the mainland between I-95 and the bridges, with Fernandina Beach addresses; they are ten to fifteen minutes from the beach, mostly in Zone X and priced a tier below the island. This site lists them under Amelia Island as its mainland side.
