Executive Summary
Nassau Crossing is an attainable D.R. Horton community on Mainline Road in Yulee, just off FL-200 minutes from I-95. With both a townhome section and single-family homes, now sold out of new construction and trading as resale, it offers some of the more accessible options in Nassau County, in the number one school district in Florida.
The townhomes originally sold in the low to mid $200,000s, and single-family homes price higher, so today's resale market spans a useful range for first-time and value-focused buyers. The homes are recent construction with open-concept layouts and smart-home features.
The draw is attainable, newer housing with top-ranked schools and quick access to the beach and Jacksonville. The trade-offs are the resale-only market and the HOA, with the townhome section carrying dues for low-maintenance living.

Community Overview & History
An attainable Yulee community
Nassau Crossing is a D.R. Horton community off FL-200 that brought attainable townhomes and single-family homes to Yulee. With the new-construction phases sold out, it now trades as resale, giving buyers recently built homes in an established setting at accessible prices, with the top-ranked Nassau schools close by.
Two formats in one community
The community pairs a townhome section with single-family homes, so buyers can choose the low-maintenance townhome route or a detached home, both with open-concept layouts and the Home Is Connected smart-home system.
Neighborhoods & Areas
Nassau Crossing's variety comes from the format and the home.
Townhome section
The townhomes offer the most attainable entry and low-maintenance living, with HOA-covered exterior upkeep.
Single-family homes
The single-family homes give buyers a detached home with a private yard at a higher price point within the same community.
Recent construction
Both formats are recently built, so buyers get newer homes and features in resale without the construction wait.
Real Estate Market
Nassau Crossing is now a resale market of recently built homes. Townhomes originally sold in the low to mid $200,000s and single-family homes higher, so the resale range today is among the more accessible in Nassau County. Format, size, and condition separate otherwise similar homes, and the newer construction means lower near-term maintenance for many buyers.
For context, Momentum tracks the wider Jacksonville metro at a 97.98 percent sold-to-list ratio and 64 days on market for our agents, against a RealMLS market average closer to 96.73 percent and 72 days, year to date. In an attainable resale community, pricing to the right comps by format and condition is what protects you on both sides.
Who Lives Here
Nassau Crossing draws first-time buyers, young families, and value-focused buyers who want an attainable, newer home with A-rated Nassau schools and easy access to the beach and Jacksonville. It is an entry-level and value community organized around accessibility and convenience.
Schools
Nassau Crossing is in the Nassau County School District, ranked the number one district in Florida for 2024-2025 with every school A-rated, served by the Yulee-area schools. Confirm the current zoning for a specific address with the district before you buy. See the Nassau County schools guide.
Amenities & Lifestyle
Nassau Crossing's appeal is value and convenience.
Low-maintenance options
The townhome section offers HOA-covered exterior upkeep and lock-and-leave ease for those who want it.
Location and access
Off FL-200 minutes from I-95, with shopping and dining close, and the Amelia Island beaches and historic Fernandina a short drive.
Smart-home features
Recent D.R. Horton construction means modern, efficient interiors with smart-home technology.
HOA, CDD & Costs
Nassau Crossing has an HOA, and the townhome section carries dues that typically cover exterior and common-area maintenance. Confirm the current HOA dues, what they include, and whether any CDD applies for a specific home, since fee structures should always be verified in writing and factored into the all-in monthly.
Insurance is rising across Florida, though the recent construction here often carries lower premiums than older homes because of newer roofs and current code. For townhomes, confirm what the HOA master policy covers versus what you insure yourself, and get quotes early on the specific home.

Hidden Things Buyers Should Know
Townhome or single-family changes everything
Nassau Crossing has both, at different prices and with different dues. Decide which format fits before you shop, since the all-in monthly and the lifestyle differ.
Inspect even newer homes
These are recently built, but condition, updates, and any remaining builder warranty vary. A thorough inspection still matters and can reveal value differences.
Know the HOA details
Townhome dues usually cover exterior and common areas, but specifics vary. Confirm what is included and run the all-in monthly before comparing to a new-construction option nearby.
Momentum Expert Insight
Nassau Crossing is a practical pick for buyers who want into Nassau County's top schools without a top-tier price. The mix of townhomes and single-family homes gives you options, and because it is recent construction in resale, you get newer homes without the build wait.
Decide townhome versus single-family up front, since the price and the dues differ, and confirm exactly what the HOA covers. Then compare it honestly against an active new-construction option like Liberty Cove, where incentives can change the math. An agent who knows the Yulee entry-level market will help you weigh it.
