Jon's Current Read

"Ivy Lakes is a fixed-inventory resale community in the St. Johns County growth corridor, built starting around 1997 around a series of interior lakes. Because no new phases are being released, the market here behaves like any established resale neighborhood: value is set by condition, lot position relative to the lakes, and updates on the individual home, not by builder pricing. The location thesis is the Race Track Road / CR-210 corridor in the Fruit Cove area, within reach of I-95 and a reasonable drive to both Jacksonville and historic St. Augustine. Confirm the current HOA dues, verify there is no CDD on the specific parcel, and get a bindable insurance quote before you commit."

Jon Brooks, founder, Momentum Realty · Updated June 2026

The 60-Second Overview

Ivy Lakes is an established single-family resale community in the St. Johns (Fruit Cove) area of St. Johns County, off the Race Track Road / CR-210 corridor. The community dates to around 1997, built around a series of interior lakes, with homes generally reported at about 1,954 to 3,273 square feet and 3 to 5 bedrooms; verify the exact size and lot type by address.

Because Ivy Lakes is fully built out, this market behaves like a fixed-inventory resale neighborhood rather than a builder release: the pool of homes does not grow, and value is driven by a home's condition, its lot position relative to the interior lakes, and any updates, rather than by new-phase pricing. The community carries a homeowners association reported to run low dues; no dedicated clubhouse or pool was identified, so confirm current common-area upkeep and the exact dues figure with the HOA before you buy.

The bigger picture is location. Ivy Lakes sits in the St. Johns County growth corridor along Race Track Road, within a reasonable drive of I-95, giving access to both the Jacksonville job market and historic Downtown St. Augustine. Weigh the age of an individual home's roof and systems, Florida homeowners insurance costs, and confirmed HOA dues against that location.

Recent Developments in Ivy Lakes

Development Intelligence

Our read on what is being built around Ivy Lakes, scored for direction, significance, and how close the effect lands. The full sourced timeline follows below.

Net OutlookBullishNet stable for an established, fully built-out resale community. Upside comes from continued St. Johns County growth and demand for the Fruit Cove area; the main things to watch are Florida homeowners insurance costs and the age of individual homes' systems.

St. Johns County growth corridor

2020s

BullishNotable impact

SignificanceRadius: County

St. Johns County has been among Florida's faster-growing counties in recent years, with continued development along the Race Track Road and CR-210 corridor supporting everyday demand for established resale communities like Ivy Lakes.

Florida homeowners insurance costs

Fixed-inventory resale market

Evergreen

NeutralNotable impact

SignificanceRadius: Community

With the community fully built out since the late 1990s, inventory turns over only as individual owners list resale homes rather than through a builder release schedule. Pricing and availability depend on the condition, lot, and updates of the specific homes on the market at any given time.

The Strategy

The Ivy Lakes buying strategy.

If we were buying in Ivy Lakes, this is the order of operations we would run, and the one we run for our clients.

Confirm the current HOA name, management, and dues amount in writing before you make an offer.

Verify whether the specific parcel carries a CDD assessment on the St. Johns County Property Appraiser's tax record.

Get a bindable homeowners insurance quote for the specific home, since St. Johns County insurance costs vary by roof age and updates.

Verify the exact zoned elementary, middle, and high school for the address with the St. Johns County School District, since attendance zones can change.

Have a licensed inspector check the roof and major systems age on the specific home, since Ivy Lakes homes date to the late 1990s.

The Quick Decision

Best Buy

A well-maintained, updated home with confirmed roof and systems age and a clear HOA dues figure.

Biggest Risk

Buying an original-condition home from the community's oldest phase without verifying roof and systems age first.

Best Lot

Compare interior lots against any homesites directly on the lakes; confirm lot type and any lake-frontage premium by address.

Smart Timing

Resale-driven; availability depends on what individual owners list, not a builder release schedule.

The factors that actually move value in Ivy Lakes, condition, lot, and the renovation math, read from current listings and recent sales.

15-Second Take

Renovation math decides the deal
Better lots and views resell strongest
Roof and HVAC age drive the insurance quote
Interior lots are where buyers overpay

Proprietary Data

The renovation premium.

Renovated-listing inventory in Ivy Lakes is too thin right now to compute a reliable renovation premium. We read condition home by home against real comps before you offer.

Lot Value

The lot premium.

On a preferred homesite (water, preserve, corner, or a larger lot), the homesite is the part of your money the market gives back at resale. The house can be renovated; the lot cannot, so premium lots hold their value better than interior ones. How much more they command varies by frontage, view, and condition, which is why we read it home by home against real comparable sales rather than a single headline figure.

Operator Note

Most buyers overpay on interior lots in the back half of the community. A sharp renovation can distract you, but the weaker resale position follows the lot, not the finishes. We read the homesite before the kitchen.

5 Mistakes Buyers Make in Ivy Lakes

15-Second Take

Calling the listing agent (who works for the seller)
Misjudging the renovation budget
Overpaying for an interior lot
Underbudgeting the carrying costs
Skipping the roof, HVAC, and systems check

The same five mistakes cost buyers the most in any market. Every one is avoidable with the right preparation before you tour.

Calling the listing agent

The agent on the sign works for the seller. In a market where condition swings price by hundreds of thousands, negotiating against that agent with no one in your corner is the costliest move of all.

Misjudging the renovation math

A dated home looks like a deal until you price the roof, HVAC, pool, and full modernization honestly. Underbudget the reno and the bargain becomes the expensive house.

Overpaying for an interior lot

A premium homesite (water, preserve, or a preferred position) carries a real, durable premium. Pay a top price for an interior lot and you are buying the weakest version of the value.

Underbudgeting the carrying costs

Two similar homes can cost very differently to own once the HOA, any CDD, insurance, and upkeep are priced in. Buyers who do not run the full monthly carrying cost misread the real number.

Skipping the systems check

An older home means older systems unless updated. Roof age, HVAC age, pool equipment, and prior renovations drive both price and insurability, and a thorough inspection matters more here than in a new build.

“

The value here is not a builder price sheet, it is knowing the individual home: its condition, its lot, and its true carrying costs.

Fill = price per square foot; ring = lot type, inferred from listing descriptions. Sold homes are shown by realized $/sqft (lot type not always recorded). Asking and recent-sold figures from realMLS; for orientation, not an appraisal.

15-Second Take

Homes date to around 1997; roof and major systems age is the key thing to verify.
Lots with direct lake frontage tend to carry a premium over interior lots.
A recently updated home commands a premium over an original-condition home of similar size.
No dedicated clubhouse or pool was identified; weigh the lower dues against the smaller amenity set.
Ask the HOA what current dues cover before you compare against larger nearby communities.

In a fully built-out resale community like Ivy Lakes, the durable difference between two homes is condition, lot position, and updates rather than new-construction novelty. Because the community dates to the late 1990s, roof age, HVAC, and other systems can vary meaningfully from one home to the next, so a thorough inspection matters. Lots with direct frontage on the community's interior lakes tend to carry a premium over interior lots, and a well-maintained, updated home generally commands a premium over an original-condition home of similar size.

In Ivy Lakes, condition and view decide your number

Because buyers here are weighing your home against renovated comps and cross-shopping Markland, a home priced to the community average instead of its true condition and view either leaves money on the table or sits. A renovated kitchen, newer roof and HVAC, and a golf or lake view all deserve to show up in your price, and a buyer pool reading renovation math needs to be shown why your home is worth it. We build that case with real comps and a pricing strategy for the current market.
