Estimate: asking price less the $50,000 homestead exemption × Volusia County rate (19.21 mills, adopted 2025 millage). Not a bill.

(−6%)
The current taxable value ($283,347) is above the asking price. After a sale the assessment is typically set from market value, which here would be lower than the current taxable value, so the estimate is lower. Confirm with the county property appraiser — the appraiser, not the sale price, sets the assessment.

Taxable
Certified 2025 tax roll values for this parcel (Florida DOR). The roll gives values, not the bill; the current owner’s bill above is estimated from the taxable value.
Sources: Florida DOR certified tax roll (2025), Daytona Beach Area AR; millage: Volusia County School Board FY2025-26 adopted millage 5.279 (RLE 3.027); adopted 2025-09-09. County public record, not MLS data — matched to this home by parcel ID. Estimates are not a tax bill; the county property appraiser and tax collector set the actual amount.
What it really costs to own 1078 Chelsea Way
The parts of the monthly number a mortgage calculator leaves out, from this listing's MLS record, the county tax roll, Citizens and FEMA. Property facts only.
Property tax
The current owner's bill is about $5,450/yr (certified county roll, taxable value × millage). Buy at the asking price of $315,000 and the first-year bill resets to about $5,100/yr (the parcel is matched to the certified roll; asking price less the $50,000 homestead exemption × 19.21 mills); Save Our Homes caps later increases at 3%/yr.
HOA dues
The listing states there is no HOA.
Home and flood insurance
The average Citizens Property Insurance premium in Volusia County is $1,807/yr (3,573 policies, Citizens detail by county, April 2026); private-market quotes differ by roof age, wind mitigation and distance to the coast. The page's modeled range for this home is $1,500–$3,000/yr; neither is a quote. Flood: this address maps to FEMA zone X, outside the high-risk zone; flood insurance is optional but most lenders and insurers recommend it. Statewide, a zone X flood policy runs about $500–$700/yr (FEMA Risk Rating 2.0 averages, not a quote).
Roof and age
Built in 1980. An original roof would be about 46 years old; under Florida's 2022 reform (SB 2-D) carriers may require an inspection past 15 years, so budget for a roof report and ask for the roof permit date.
Estimated carrying cost at the asking price, before the mortgage: about $576/month (tax $425, insurance $151). An estimate from the sources above, not a quote; the monthly-cost calculator on this page adds the loan.
Estimated ownership costs
Estimated costs & disclosures
Estimated ownership costs for general information. Confirm each with the county, your lender, and an insurer. See data & estimate notes.
CDD assessment

No CDD assessment appears in our records for this community. CDD assessments show on the county tax bill — confirm with the tax collector.
Insurance (illustrative range)
$2k–$3k/yr
An illustrative modeled range, not based on carrier underwriting and not a quote. Florida premiums vary significantly by roof age, wind-mitigation features, claims history, and carrier — a real quote can land well outside this range. Flood insurance not federally mandated (Zone X). Get a quote from a licensed insurer before relying on any figure.
HOA
None reported
The listing reports no HOA. Confirm with the county record that no mandatory association applies.

The Messtimate
Our automated estimate of the likely sale-price range for this home — modeled from recent closed sales nearby adjusted to today's market, a local size-and-age model, and the county tax roll. It is an estimate, not an appraisal, not market value, and not an offer. A licensed agent's CMA sees the condition, the lot, and the live market that a model can't.
$294,400the mess$333,300
Strong local evidence — built from 10 comparable closed sales in Kingswood (same property type, closed within the last 18 months, each adjusted to today's market).
Track record: across 2,975 recent closed sales we scored, the closed price landed inside the Messtimate range 57% of the time; median miss 9.6% (closed sales statewide, FL + GA feeds that permit an automated estimate). Re-scored weekly; last 2026-10-14.
Actual list price: $315,000 ($187/sq ft) — the seller's asking price is not an input to this range; compare the two.
A 13% spread on the same house — here is what a model can't see:
Condition & updates — a 1980 home may have had its roof, kitchen, or HVAC replaced since, or not; the model can't see either.
The lot & views — a premium golf, water, or preserve lot vs. a road-facing one.
Carrying costs & concessions — insurance, CDD/HOA and seller-paid buydowns change what a buyer actually pays.

AdventHealth opens urgent care and primary care clinics on State Road 44 in New Smyrna Beach
AdventHealth Primary Care at 2368 State Road 44 accepts patients ages 5 and up, and Centra Care next door offers walk-in urgent care seven days a week with onsite X-ray and lab. Centra Care is the system's first urgent care in New Smyrna Beach and its sixth in Volusia County.
Why it matters: Improves access to walk-in and primary medical services for the New Smyrna Beach area. The site is about 8 miles southeast of Kingswood.
Manufacturing and technology job fair set for Oct. 15 at Daytona State
Germfree, B. Braun, Teledyne, Embler Control Systems, Bylight, Pall Corporation and the Electrical Training Alliance will recruit at the Advanced Technology College on Williamson Boulevard in Daytona Beach. The fair runs 2:30 to 5:30 p.m., with a morning session for Volusia high school students.

Port Orange council upholds award of $14.4 million Cambridge Canal pump station contract
The council voted 5-0 on Sept. 15 to deny a bid protest, keeping the $14.4 million contract with Gregori Construction for the Cambridge Canal and Pump Station upgrade. It is the city's largest stormwater project and aims to reduce flooding and tidal impacts. A formal contract award returns to the council.
Why it matters: Stormwater capacity upgrades bear on flood-risk management for nearby Port Orange areas. The site is about 1 mile northeast of Kingswood.
VoTran changes routes Oct. 4, adds DeLand express and discontinues two routes
Route 61X adds weekday service between the Transfer Plaza and the DeLand ITF via I-4, while Routes 33 and 70 are discontinued. A new VoRide Sunday zone in the Daytona Beach area replaces fixed Sunday service on Routes 3, 4, 10 and 15. The County Council approved the changes on June 16.
Why it matters: Changes commute options between Daytona Beach and DeLand and shifts some service to on-demand rides. The site is about 6 miles north of Kingswood.

Frequently asked questions
How big is 1078 Chelsea Way and when was it built?
Per the listing record, 1078 Chelsea Way was built in 1980 and has 1,682 sq ft of living area, 4 bedrooms and 2.0 bathrooms. Living area and lot size come from the MLS record and should be verified against the county property appraiser.
What community is 1078 Chelsea Way in?
1078 Chelsea Way is in Kingswood in Port Orange, Volusia County. The comparable-sales section on this page shows recent closed sales nearby from the same MLS data.
Does 1078 Chelsea Way have an HOA?
The listing reports no HOA. Confirm with the county record that no deed restrictions or mandatory association apply to the parcel.
Why might property taxes on 1078 Chelsea Way differ from the current owner's?
The estimate on this page (about $5,100 per year) assumes reassessment at the list price less the homestead exemption. Estimated buyer taxes are about $350 less per year than the current owner’s estimated bill (−6%). Florida reassesses a home after it sells; for a homesteaded seller the Save Our Homes cap on their assessment does not transfer, and a buyer's own exemptions and portability are applied separately, so the two bills usually differ. Any tax figure shown here is an estimate, not the actual bill — confirm with the county property appraiser and tax collector.
Is 1078 Chelsea Way in a flood zone?
The FEMA flood map places this parcel in Zone X, outside the special flood hazard area, so flood insurance is not usually required by a lender. It is still available and worth quoting; confirm the parcel's status with FEMA and your insurer.
Can I rely on the figures on this page?
No. Estimated taxes, insurance, payments, and any market or comparable-sales summary are opinions and estimates for general information only and should not be relied upon. Verify all information independently before making any decision.

These figures may be inaccurate or out of date, are not appraisals, valuations, or financial, legal, tax, or investment advice, and should not be relied upon. Do not make any purchase, offer, financing, or other decision based on this page.

Estimate methodology. Tax estimates apply county millage to the list price (less the homestead exemption where the parcel is matched to the certified roll) and will differ from the actual assessed bill.
