Hopkins
Homes for Sale in St. Augustine, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
As of October 2026, the MLS records 15 closed sales in Hopkins in St. Augustine, FL since 2014, the most recent in April 2025. Across St. Augustine as a whole, 2,438 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $445,000, 48 median days on market, with 692 homes for sale today. At that median and St. Johns County's FY2025-26 rate of 13.47 mills, annual property tax runs about $5,990 ($5,480 with the full homestead exemption).
The honest starting point on Hopkins is that the current data window is thin — there are no recent closings in this snapshot to anchor a price read. That means anyone quoting you a precise value here is guessing. What we can say is that pricing in a small St. Augustine pocket like this tends to be driven by the individual property: lot, condition, and how the home shows, rather than by a deep bench of comparable sales.
For a buyer, that lack of recent activity is a reason to underwrite each listing on its own merits and lean on broader St. Johns County context rather than a Hopkins-specific trend line. For a seller, it means positioning matters more than usual — with no recent closings to make your case, you are effectively setting the comp, and that is where an honest pricing conversation earns its keep.

Hopkins is a small St. Augustine location within St. Johns County. With no closings in the current window, treat it as a market you read property-by-property rather than by neighborhood averages.

The Hopkins buying strategy.
If we were buying in Hopkins 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 Hopkins.
Reading a thin-data pocket
The thing to understand about a community this size is that a single sale can swing the apparent numbers, and right now there is nothing recent to swing. That is not a red flag — it is a data reality. It puts more weight on condition, lot specifics, and how a given home stacks up against nearby St. Augustine alternatives.
Practically, that shifts the work onto diligence: verifying what a home actually offers, checking against wider county activity, and being disciplined on price rather than anchoring to a headline figure that does not exist here. The upside is that patient, well-informed buyers and honestly-priced sellers both do fine in markets like this — the noise is lower when there is less crowd to follow.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Hopkins. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
