This is a deliberately dumb estimate — living area times a range of recent neighborhood $/sq ft, and nothing else. It is not an appraisal, not market value, and not a valuation of this home. Even a tight range from comparable sales can’t price a specific home — here’s why.
$826,728the mess$876,456
Actual list price: $739,900 — compare it against the range above. The Messtimate is a blind sqft estimate; the list price reflects this specific home.
A 6% spread on the same house — and that gap is exactly what an automated guess can't see:
Condition & updates — a renovated kitchen or new roof vs. dated finishes can swing value six figures; sq ft can't see it.
The lot & views — a premium golf, water, or preserve lot vs. a road-facing one: same sq ft, very different price.
Outliers skew it — one flip or distressed sale in the comps drags the whole $/sq ft up or down.
Carrying costs & concessions — CDD, HOA, insurance, and seller-paid buydowns change what a buyer actually pays.
And here's what the live market is doing — which the number above ignores entirely:
35 active listings competing, 18 under contract
105 closed here in the last 12 months
For reference, this home is listed at $739,900 ($238/sq ft) — a number set with analysis a Messtimate can't do.

Nothing Putt Fun & Games mini-golf venue wins rezoning near Palencia
St. Johns County commissioners unanimously approved rezoning for Nothing Putt Fun & Games, a roughly 54,000-square-foot entertainment complex planned on US-1 N about a mile south of Palencia. Plans call for a 16,000-square-foot building with an indoor course, restaurant, arcade, food trucks and an outdoor course. The developer hoped to break ground by the end of 2026 with an estimated eight-month build.
Why it matters: A new recreation and dining venue this close to the community could add nearby leisure options that area listings may reference, though timing depends on the developer closing on the land and starting construction.
Jersey Mike's Subs opens at Shoppes at Palencia Commons
Jersey Mike's Subs held a grand opening Dec. 4 at 120 Palencia Village Drive in the Publix-anchored Shoppes at Palencia Commons. It is the chain's fourth St. Augustine location. The Palencia Commons center fronts US-1 N and serves as the community's main retail node.
Why it matters: Additional dining at the community's anchor center may broaden the everyday-convenience mix that buyers weigh when comparing nearby neighborhoods.
The Palencia Club sold to Heritage Golf Group for $19.5 million
Jacksonville-based Hampton Golf sold The Palencia Club on Oct. 28 to Heritage Golf Group of Herndon, Virginia, for $19.5 million as part of a three-course, $45.5 million transaction. The private club features an 18-hole Arthur Hills course and a 33,000-square-foot clubhouse. Heritage said early capital-improvement plans for the clubs are in discussion.
Why it matters: A new operator signaling reinvestment could affect the on-site golf and clubhouse amenities that figure into how the community is positioned, though specific upgrades had not been announced.
Nothing Putt Fun & Games entertainment complex proposed on US-1 near Palencia
Plans surfaced for Nothing Putt Fun & Games, a 36-hole miniature golf and entertainment complex proposed at 7250 and 7280 US-1 N, roughly a mile south of Palencia. The concept paired indoor and outdoor courses with a restaurant and arcade. The project later advanced to rezoning approval in early 2026.
Why it matters: Early-stage commercial proposals along the US-1 corridor near the community indicate continued interest in nearby retail and leisure development that could shape the area's amenity base over time.

Answered before you ask
Frequently asked questions
Why might my property taxes differ from the current owner's?
Florida's Save Our Homes rule caps annual assessment increases for homesteaded owners, and the assessment can be re-set after a sale. As a result a new owner's bill may differ from the seller's. Any tax figure shown here is an estimate, not the actual bill — confirm with the county property appraiser and tax collector.
Where does the flood-zone information come from?
The flood designation shown (Zone X) comes from the FEMA flood map and is provided for general information. 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.
