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.
$1,767,920the mess$2,245,980
Actual list price: $2,400,000 — 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 — 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:
This home: 5 days on market vs. a 37-day community median
13 active listings competing, 7 under contract
≈2.7 months of supply
58 closed here in the last 12 months
For reference, this home is listed at $2,400,000 ($532/sq ft) — a number set with analysis a Messtimate can't do.

Feb 2026 · Schools
St. Johns County approves new K-8 Episcopal School of Ponte Vedra on Palm Valley Road
County commissioners unanimously approved a special use permit for the Episcopal School of Ponte Vedra, a planned 78,000 square foot campus for about 850 students from kindergarten through eighth grade at 895 Palm Valley Road. Traffic studies project roughly 3,500 daily trips concentrated at drop-off and pick-up, and the school plans on-site stacking lanes to manage congestion. The campus is targeted to open for the 2027-2028 academic year.
Why it matters: Added private school capacity in the Palm Valley corridor could shift some enrollment patterns and peak-hour traffic near Marsh Landing, though the effect may not be felt until after 2027.
New owners plan comprehensive renovation of Sawgrass Marriott resort near TPC
A joint venture that includes Jacksonville-based Dream Finders Homes and Charlotte-based South Street Partners acquired the Sawgrass Marriott Golf Resort and Spa and the Cabana Beach Club, with stated plans for a comprehensive renovation. The release described the resort as having 351 hotel rooms, 163 villas, about 114,000 square feet of meeting space, and a 25,000 square foot spa and fitness facility. The property sits next to TPC Sawgrass off TPC Boulevard.
Why it matters: A major renovation of the area's flagship resort could, over time, support nearby property appeal in the Ponte Vedra corridor, though renovation timelines and scope remain to be detailed.
Sawgrass Marriott and Cabana Beach Club sell for $149.04 million
South Street Partners purchased the Sawgrass Marriott Golf Resort and Spa at 1000 TPC Boulevard and the oceanfront Cabana Beach Club at 619 Ponte Vedra Boulevard for $149.04 million, with the deed recorded with the St. Johns County Clerk of Court. The seller was an affiliate of Brookfield, which had acquired the hotel in 2022. The properties last sold for $122 million in 2014.
Why it matters: The sizable transaction signals continued institutional investor interest in Ponte Vedra Beach hospitality assets, which historically has tracked with broader confidence in the surrounding market.
Sawgrass Hilton Garden Inn sells for $28.5 million
The Hilton Garden Inn Jacksonville Ponte Vedra Sawgrass at 45 TPC Boulevard, behind the Publix-anchored Sawgrass Village shopping center, sold for $28.5 million to a California-based hospitality group. The 83,497 square foot hotel was built in 2000 and was remodeled in 2022. The seller had purchased it for about $13 million in 2021.
Why it matters: Hotel transactions in the Sawgrass area point to ongoing investment interest in commercial property near Marsh Landing, which can accompany sustained demand in the surrounding corridor.

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.
