Homes for Sale in St. Augustine, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
As of September 2026, the MLS records 1 closed sale in Bennetts in St. Augustine, FL, the most recent in November 2016. Across St. Augustine as a whole, 2,663 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $453,314, 52 median days on market, with 688 homes for sale today.

Bennetts is a small, older platted pocket of St. Augustine, and in a market like this the price is set by condition far more than by any list of standard features. Two homes on the same block can trade very differently depending on what has and hasn't been updated, so the price you see reflects the specific house, not a neighborhood-wide number.
For a buyer, that means underwriting each property on its own merits rather than assuming a going rate. For a seller, it means the condition and presentation of your home do most of the work — the location inside historic St. Augustine gets attention, but the finished product determines where you land.

The Bennetts buying strategy.
If we were buying in Bennetts today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.
Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.
Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.
Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.
Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.
Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in Bennetts.
A condition-driven pocket of St. Augustine
This is not a large-tract subdivision with predictable floor plans. Bennetts is an older St. Augustine plat, which means variety in age, footprint, and how much work each home has had. That variety is the reason you should treat every listing here as its own case rather than comparing it to a headline average.
The upside of that irregularity is real: proximity to the core of St. Augustine and the everyday assets of a walkable historic city. The tradeoff is that value hinges on the individual property — systems, updates, lot, and layout — so due diligence matters more here than in a uniform community.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Bennetts. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
