As of September 2026, the MLS records 196 closed sales in Ivy Lakes in St. Johns, FL since 2001, the most recent in July 2026. Recorded prices since 2024 ran from $425,000 to $660,000 (median $599,000), on homes of 1,712 to 3,470 sq ft. Across St. Johns as a whole, 1,371 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $505,000, 49 median days on market, with 299 homes for sale today. At that median and St. Johns County's FY2025-26 rate of 13.47 mills, annual property tax runs about $8,070 ($7,550 with the full homestead exemption).

Ivy Lakes is a small community in St. Johns County where the MLS is quiet right now: no active listings and just one closing in the most recent window. With that little to read from, price here is driven by the individual home — its condition, lot, and finish level — far more than by any community-wide trend line. Treat any single sale as a data point, not a market.
For a seller, the thin supply is leverage: a well-prepared listing faces little to no visible competition inside the community. For a buyer, the flip side is patience — inventory turns over slowly, so the right home may take time to surface, and you should be ready to move when it does rather than expecting a menu of choices.
The 60-Second Overview
Ivy Lakes is a low-turnover pocket of St. Johns County. The absence of active listings and a single recent closing mean this is a community you watch and wait on, not one you shop across multiple options.

The Ivy Lakes buying strategy.
If we were buying in Ivy Lakes 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 Ivy Lakes.
Reading a thin market
With zero active listings and one closing in the current window, Ivy Lakes doesn't give us the volume to talk about spreads, absorption, or trend. What it does tell you is that homes here don't churn — supply is scarce and turnover is slow. That's a structural feature of small communities, not a warning sign, but it changes how you should approach both sides of a deal.
No community amenities surfaced in current MLS listings, so the value proposition is the homes and the St. Johns County location itself rather than shared facilities. If amenities matter to you, verify what exists on the ground and through the HOA directly, because the listing data isn't carrying that story.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Ivy Lakes. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a community this thin, the public data won't tell you much — the useful information lives in off-market activity, HOA specifics, and how a given home compares to recent sales nearby. We track St. Johns County closely enough to tell you whether a single Ivy Lakes sale is a fair benchmark or an outlier, and to keep you positioned to act when the right listing finally appears.
