Jon's Read · written July 14, 2026

Chautauqua Beach's pricing is being set by per-square-foot economics rather than closing counts: the median runs $463.86 per square foot against a median sale price of $1,119,785, and with only 4 closings in the current window, that median is a thin read on a small handful of transactions rather than a broad trend line.

The 83.6% year-over-year move and a 0 active-listing count point to a market with essentially no current inventory to compare against sellers have almost no competition to price off of, and buyers have almost nothing to shop, so the next listing that hits the market will set the tone (median days on market ran just over 30 days here) more than any single figure in this snapshot.

Figures in this note are as of July 14, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.

The 60-Second Overview

Chautauqua Beach market snapshot (as of November 11, 2026): the median sale price is about $1.12M ($464 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 49 days on market for closed sales. The trailing-12-month median is up 90% from the prior 12 months, computed from record-level realMLS closed sales (4 closings in the current window).

Chautauqua Beach is a community of 362 homes in St. Augustine, St. Johns County, built between 1895 and 2024 (median 1987), with a median living area of about 1,707 square feet. 41% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).

Chautauqua Beach in St. Augustine, St. Johns County, is trading at a median price above $1.1 million and a per-square-foot figure near $464, but the sample behind those numbers is small enough that each new closing can move the picture meaningfully.

Best for

  • A buyer with a flexible timeline who wants to be first in line the moment a Chautauqua Beach property lists, given zero current active inventory.
  • A seller weighing whether now is the moment to list, given a market heat score of 77 and a median price that has moved sharply year-over-year.
  • A buyer comfortable underwriting value from per-square-foot data ($463.86/sqft) rather than a wide set of comparable listings.

Probably not for

  • A buyer who wants to compare several active listings side by side before making an offer.
  • A buyer who needs price certainty from a large sample the median here has moved 83.6% year-over-year on just 4 closings.
  • A buyer who wants confirmed on-site amenities none have been identified from current MLS listings for this community.

Price History: What Homes Here Have Actually Sold For

Median sale price over the trailing 12 months ending November 11 of each year, from record-level realMLS closed sales. Same methodology as every appreciation figure on this page: the 2026 point ($1.12M) IS the median in the snapshot above, and the move from 2025 ($589K) IS the +90.1% one-year change.

Windows contain 0 to 7 sales each (4 in the current window); every figure carries its sample size, and thin markets swing on single closings. Source: Data provided by realMLS. Deemed reliable but not guaranteed.

Buying with schools in mind? We can confirm the exact zoned schools for any Chautauqua Beach address.

If we were buying in Chautauqua Beach today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.

1

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.

2

Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.

3

Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.

4

Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.

5

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 Chautauqua Beach.

Best Buy
Buyers or sellers working at the upper end of the St. Augustine coastal market who can move the moment a property lists.
Biggest Risk
With only 4 closings behind the current median, any single sale can swing the number significantly.
Sweet Spot
Buyers comfortable pricing off per-square-foot data ($463.86/sqft) rather than a range of comparable active listings.
Avoid If
Skip this community if you need to browse and compare multiple active listings before deciding there are currently none to look at.

A Market Defined by Scarcity

With zero active listings identified in current MLS data, Chautauqua Beach is not a community where a buyer can currently browse options inventory is effectively off the table, and the market heat score of 77 reflects that imbalance between demand signals and available supply rather than a broad buying frenzy.

The 4 closings behind this snapshot carried a median days-on-market just over 30 days and a median price of $1,119,785, at $463.86 per square foot. No community amenities were identified from current MLS listings, so buyers evaluating this address should confirm any amenity claims directly rather than relying on this snapshot.

The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Chautauqua Beach. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
