Jon's Current Read

Lakes At Mill Creek Plantation is trading at a median of $480,000, or $239.04 per square foot — but that figure is built on a genuinely thin sample: this window shows just three closings and a single active listing. Read the price as directional, not a precise ceiling or floor for what a specific home here will fetch.

The posture right now is balanced, with roughly six months of supply and a market heat score of 16 — low enough that sellers shouldn't expect a bidding war and buyers have room to negotiate. Homes here are sitting a median of 39 days before going under contract, and pricing is down about 2% year-over-year, which argues for a seller pricing to the comp rather than chasing last year's numbers.

Lakes At Mill Creek Plantation right now

🟡 Balanced market. 6.0 months of supply and 0% of the inventory already under contract put buyers and sellers on roughly even footing.Why it matters: months of supply is how long today's inventory would last at today's sales pace; under-contract share is the portion of homes for sale that already have a buyer.Momentum Research analysis of realMLS records, as of July 14, 2026. Confidence: Low (1 active and pending listings, 3 closed sales in 12 months).

🟡 Off the recent peak. The trailing-12-month median ($480K) is down 2.0% from the prior 12 months ($490K). With about 5 sales a year, a single closing can swing this number, so read the level and the decade, not one year's move.Momentum Research, record-level realMLS closed sales, 12-month windows ending July 14. Confidence: Low (3 and 5 sales in the two windows).

The 60-Second Overview

Lakes At Mill Creek Plantation market snapshot (as of July 14, 2026): the median sale price is about $480K ($239 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), a median 39 days on market for closed sales, and 6.0 months of supply, a balanced market. The trailing-12-month median is down 2% from the prior 12 months, computed from record-level realMLS closed sales (3 closings in the current window).

Lakes At Mill Creek Plantation is a St. Johns community in St. Johns County built around a shared playground, with a market that trades quietly rather than in volume. Pricing data here should be weighed against the very small number of recent transactions.

Best for

  • Buyers willing to do extra comp work in a low-inventory community
  • Sellers pricing realistically off a $480,000 median rather than expecting a bidding war
  • Buyers interested in a playground as a primary shared amenity

Probably not for

  • Buyers who want several active listings to compare before offering
  • Sellers expecting rapid appreciation after a year that's down about 2%
  • Buyers seeking an extensive list of resort-style community amenities

Windows contain 0 to 13 sales each (3 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.

If we were buying in Lakes At Mill Creek Plantation 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 Lakes At Mill Creek Plantation.

Best Buy
Buyers and sellers comfortable pricing off a small number of recent comps rather than a deep sales history.
Biggest Risk
With just one active listing and three closings in this window, the median price carries more uncertainty than in higher-volume communities.
Sweet Spot
A seller with a well-comped, realistically priced home can expect a median of about 39 days to a contract.
Avoid If
Avoid if you need several active listings to compare before making a decision.

A Thin Market, Read Carefully

With only one active listing and three closings feeding this snapshot, Lakes At Mill Creek Plantation doesn't generate the transaction volume of larger St. Johns communities. That's not a red flag on its own — it just means each closing carries more weight in the median, and a buyer or seller should look at the specific comps behind the $480,000 figure rather than treating it as a market-wide average.

At $239.04 per square foot and a median of 39 days on market, homes here aren't moving instantly, but they aren't stalling either. Six months of supply and a heat score of 16 put this squarely in balanced territory — not a market tilted hard toward either side. The single listed amenity is a playground, reported across this community's MLS listings; buyers should confirm current amenities and access directly with the HOA before assuming anything beyond that.

The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Lakes At Mill Creek Plantation. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
