Listing description
About this home
Behind the manned gates of St. Johns Forest, this updated 6 bedroom, 4 bath residence spans more than 4,100 square feet and backs directly to a nature preserve. A private, wooded backdrop with sunset views and no rear neighbors.
The home's main level features hardwood floors throughout and an extensively remodeled kitchen (2021) with quartz counters, gas range, center island, custom cabinetry and moldings. Dedicated spaces set this home apart: a private theater room with a 100-inch projection screen, a game room with wet bar, and a wine cellar. The primary suite includes a fully renovated spa-style bath (2025), and three additional baths were renovated in 2021.
Generous closet space throughout keeps everything organized. The home's systems are as sound as the finishes. A new roof (2020), two new HVAC systems (2021), and a new gas water heater (2023) mean the major expenses are already handled.
St. Johns Forest offers a resort-style pool, clubhouse, fitness center, roller hockey rink, tennis and basketball courts, a playground, and walking trails, all within a manned, gated entrance. The home sits in St.
Johns County School District, one of Florida's top-rated districts, and is minutes from shopping, dining, healthcare, and major commuter routes -- combining a quiet preserve setting with everyday convenience. From the theater and game room to the lanai overlooking the preserve, this home balances room to gather with space to retreat.

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.
$818,487the mess$1,040,589
Actual list price: $1,110,000 — compare it against the range above. The Messtimate is a blind sqft estimate; the list price reflects this specific home.
A 27% 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 — this home carries HOA dues of $247/mo; with insurance and any seller-paid buydown, that changes what a buyer actually pays, and a sq ft estimate ignores all of it.
And here's what the live market is doing — which the number above ignores entirely:
This home: 60 days on market vs. a 29-day community median
7 active listings competing
≈3.1 months of supply
27 closed here in the last 12 months
For reference, this home is listed at $1,110,000 ($270/sq ft) — a number set with analysis a Messtimate can't do.

CR 210 widening westbound lanes set to reopen in St. Johns County
News4Jax reported that all westbound lanes of the County Road 210 widening project in St. Johns County were expected to reopen by the end of Friday, July 31, 2026, ahead of the August 10 school year start. The county said it is managing 44 active road projects totaling $183.1 million this year.
Why it matters: Expands roadway capacity on a major county corridor, improving traffic flow and supporting continued growth along the CR 210 area. The project is about 6 miles east of St Johns Forest, elsewhere in St. Johns County.
Six agricultural enclave projects seek to develop 6,500-plus acres in St. Johns County
Jacksonville Today reported that St. Johns County received six proposals totaling more than 6,558 acres for development under a new Florida agricultural enclave law that took effect July 1, 2026. The largest proposal, about 4,462 acres north of Nocatee, comes from the Davis family and the PARC Group. The County Commission scheduled a public hearing on the proposals for August 19, 2026.
Why it matters: Signals a large potential expansion of developable land and future housing and commercial capacity, using a new state process that can convert farmland to residential and commercial use with reduced local review. The site is about 7 miles east of St Johns Forest.
Publix opens and more retailers coming to Marketplace at Nocatee
An official Nocatee business update reported that a Publix supermarket with a pharmacy drive-thru and adjacent Publix Liquors has opened at Marketplace at Nocatee. Additional announced tenants include SoFresh in late summer 2026, a Gate gas station, BODYBAR Pilates, a nail spa and a wine and spirits shop. The Hub at Nocatee entertainment concept is slated for 2028.
Why it matters: Expands grocery, dining and everyday retail capacity at a growing town center, adding anchor and service tenants that build out the commercial base of the area. The project is about 8 miles east of St Johns Forest, elsewhere in St. Johns County.
First Coast Expressway advances as an economic-development corridor across Clay and St. Johns
The First Coast Expressway (State Road 23), a tolled beltway looping around the west and south of the Jacksonville metro, continued to open land for development along its corridor, with the final St. Johns County phase from Interstate 95 to east of County Road 2209 in progress. FDOT held a St. Johns County open house on the final phase in January 2026.
Why it matters: New limited-access highway capacity shortens commutes and opens adjacent land, changes that have historically shaped where new communities and demand concentrate. The site is about 12 miles west of St Johns Forest.

Before you decide
Buyer research checklist
Items worth confirming for 189 ST JOHNS FOREST Boulevard, chosen from what the record shows. This is general guidance, not advice about this specific property.
Built in 2006 (20 years): ask for the roof and HVAC replacement dates — insurers commonly ask for roof age on homes this old, and it changes the premium.
HOA dues are listed at $247/mo: request the current budget, reserves, and rules before relying on that figure or on any restriction.
FEMA flood zone A: lenders generally require flood insurance here — get an elevation certificate and a flood quote before the inspection period ends.
Get a homeowners insurance quote for this specific address in St. Johns County; a wind-mitigation inspection and, on older homes, a four-point inspection can change the premium.
Listed living area is 4,113 sq ft: verify it against the property appraiser's record and measure before relying on it.
Order a survey to confirm lot boundaries and easements.
Review permit history with the county.
Property taxes: the estimate on this page (about $9,546/yr) assumes reassessment at the list price; the seller's homestead cap does not transfer, so their current bill is not a guide.
School zoning shown here comes from district data and changes; confirm the assigned schools directly with the district before relying on them.

Per the listing record, 189 ST JOHNS FOREST Boulevard was built in 2006 and has 4,113 sq ft of living area, 6 bedrooms and 4.0 bathrooms. Living area and lot size come from the MLS record and should be verified against the county property appraiser.
What community is 189 ST JOHNS FOREST Boulevard in?
189 ST JOHNS FOREST Boulevard is in St Johns Forest in St. Johns, St. Johns County. The community section on this page shows recent closed sales, days on market, and active inventory for St Johns Forest from the same MLS data.
Does 189 ST JOHNS FOREST Boulevard have an HOA, and how much are the dues?
The listing reports HOA dues of $247 per month. Dues, what they cover, and the community's rules should be confirmed from the association's current documents before relying on them.
Why might property taxes on 189 ST JOHNS FOREST Boulevard differ from the current owner's?
The estimate on this page (about $9,546 per year) assumes reassessment at the list price. Florida's Save Our Homes rule caps annual assessment increases for homesteaded owners, and the assessment resets after a sale, so 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.
Is 189 ST JOHNS FOREST Boulevard in a flood zone?
The FEMA flood map places this parcel in Zone A, a special flood hazard area where lenders generally require flood insurance on a mortgaged purchase. Confirm the parcel's status with FEMA and your insurer, and ask for an elevation certificate.
