Executive Summary
Long Point is where the Amelia Island Plantation hierarchy tops out: a private gated enclave around the Tom Fazio Long Point course, with custom homes and villas trading fairway, marsh, and Intracoastal views.
Owners can pursue Amelia Island Club categories for golf, beach, and dining, and the Plantation framework, the beaches, trails, and resort, surrounds the enclave.
For pricing context, properties have traded from about $900K past $3M, with oceanfront-adjacent products like The Pointe reaching far higher, third-party and dated. Price a specific property off recent comparable sales.

Community Overview & History
The Fazio address of the Plantation
Amelia Island Plantation runs many villages; Long Point is the one golfers name first. The Fazio routing through marsh and maritime forest gives the enclave its views and its prestige, double-gated inside the island resort.
How it feels on the ground today
Long Point reads as established island luxury: the private gate off the Plantation spine, oaks over custom homes, the Fazio fairways threading the marsh, and the Intracoastal sunsets doing the evening work.
The Community and What You Are Buying
Long Point is about the view tier, the product type, and the vintage.
Marsh and ICW estates
Big-water and marsh frontage anchors the top of the market.
Fairway homes
Fazio-frontage homes trade on the golf view.
Villas
Lock-and-leave villas offer the address at lower entries.
Real Estate Market
Long Point appeals to affluent golfers and luxury buyers who want the Plantation with maximum privacy.

Hidden Things Buyers Should Know
The Fazio premium
Long Point frontage carries the strongest golf premium on the island; the course brand does measurable work at resale.
Tier discipline
Marsh, fairway, and villa tiers price differently; comp within the tier, never across.
Club category math
Model the club categories you will actually use; they change the carrying cost meaningfully.
Momentum Expert Insight
Long Point is the island address golfers retire toward: the Fazio course, the marsh light, and two gates between you and the world. It holds the Plantation ceiling for a reason.
My advice is to choose the view tier first, model the association and club stack honestly, and buy the best lot the tier offers.
Selling a Home in Long Point
Selling in Long Point is about presenting the tier, the view, and the club lifestyle, and pricing correctly off tier comparables.
We price from the most recent comparable properties by tier and market the Fazio prestige to the national golf pool.
Get a no-obligation home value for your Long Point home, based on real comparable sales in the community rather than an automated guess. Tell us about your home and we will personally prepare your numbers and a pricing strategy. No obligation, no spam.

Flood Zones & Insurance
Nassau County is coastal, so on-island and marsh-adjacent homes carry more flood exposure than off-island inland communities; the Nassau County FEMA maps are the reference for any specific address.
The reliable move is to pull the FEMA flood designation for the exact Long Point address before you write an offer, since two homes in the same area can fall in different zones. A home in Zone X can cost far less to insure than one near water in Zone AE. Get a bindable flood and homeowners quote during your inspection period, so the cost is in your monthly math before you commit, not after.
Internet & Connectivity
The Yulee and Nassau corridor is served by AT&T and Xfinity (Comcast), with fiber expanding and the Wildlight area marketing gigabit service. If working from home matters, confirm the options, and fiber in particular, at the specific Long Point address rather than assuming.
The Tax Reality
Nassau County carries a lower effective property-tax rate than much of the metro, with a median effective rate near 0.98 percent, below the Florida median of about 1.10 percent. The Florida homestead exemption for 2026 is 51,411 dollars for those who qualify, and the deadline to file a new homestead exemption is March 1.
The trap to plan for is the post-sale reset: when you buy, the Save Our Homes cap from the previous owner ends and the assessed value resets to the new just value, so your second-year tax bill is often higher than the seller current one. Budget the true number, and confirm whether the specific home carries a CDD or other assessment that is billed separately from the millage and is not reduced by the homestead exemption.
What Your Budget Buys Here
The same budget buys very different homes across Long Point and the surrounding area, depending on age, size, lot, and condition. Rather than anchor on the asking price or the neighborhood average, price any specific home off the most recent comparable sales, and weigh what your money would buy in the nearby alternatives before you commit.The Future of the Area
Nassau County continues to grow, with new rooftops, retail, and road work reshaping parts of the area. That growth supports long-run demand, but it can also add competing inventory and construction traffic in the near term, so factor both the upside and the disruption into your timing and your pricing.Resale Liquidity
How quickly a Long Point home resells comes down to presentation, condition, and pricing against the latest comparable sales rather than the neighborhood average. Homes that are priced correctly and shown well tend to move, while overpriced or dated homes sit. We track the active and sold comparable set so a Long Point home is priced to the real market.The Long Point Playbook
If you are buying in Long Point, here is how we would approach it: pull the flood zone and a real insurance quote for the specific address, confirm the HOA dues and whether a CDD applies, compare what your budget would buy nearby, and price the home off the closest comparable sales rather than the asking price. If you are buying any new-construction home, bring your own agent before you register, since the on-site representative works for the builder, not for you.
Questions We Would Ask Before Buying Here
Ask the seller
- What flood zone is this exact address in?
- What are the HOA dues, and is there a CDD or special assessment?
- What did the last few comparable homes actually sell for?
- How old are the roof, HVAC, and water heater?
- What is the true second-year tax estimate after reassessment?
Ask yourself
- Does the commute to work, schools, and daily life actually work?
- Do I need fiber internet, and is it at this address?
- Am I pricing against the right comparable sales, not the average?
- Does the lot and the condition fit my budget and my resale plan?
Mistakes to Avoid
The common ones around Long Point: trusting the seller current tax bill instead of the post-sale reset; skipping the address-specific flood check; assuming fiber is at every home; and pricing off the neighborhood average rather than the closest comparable sales. Each is avoidable with the right diligence, which is exactly where having your own agent pays off.
