Over the 12 months ending 2026-10-01, 3 recorded sales closed at a median of $705,000, $409 per square foot, a median 109 days on market, sellers accepting 93% of original asking. Homes listed or recently sold were built 1908–1910; none of the 4 geocoded homes sit in a FEMA special flood hazard zone (median elevation 7 ft). At the median price and St. Johns County's FY2025-26 rate of 13.47 mills, annual property tax runs about $9,500 ($8,980 with the full homestead exemption).
Rhode Addn is a small, condition-driven pocket in St. Augustine where the median sits at $705,000 and roughly $409 per square foot. With only three closings in the window, price here is set less by a broad market and more by what individual homes bring in condition, lot, and finish — expect a wide spread and treat the median as a reference point, not a rule.
The current posture favors patience. A median of 109 days on market tells you homes are not moving quickly, which gives buyers room to negotiate and inspect without pressure. Sellers should price to the specific property and plan for a longer marketing runway rather than a fast, competitive sale.
The 60-Second Overview
Rhode market snapshot (as of October 1, 2026): the median sale price is about $705K ($409 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 109 days on market for closed sales.
Rhode is a community of 35 homes in St. Augustine, St. Johns County, built between 1885 and 2018 (median 1910), with a median living area of about 1,876 square feet. 36% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).
This is a thin-volume St. Augustine submarket where a handful of sales carry the numbers, so each listing's condition and location matter far more than any neighborhood-wide trend.

Price History: What Homes Here Have Actually Sold For
Median sale price over the trailing 12 months ending October 1 of each year, from record-level realMLS closed sales. Same methodology as every appreciation figure on this page: the 2026 point ($705K) IS the median in the snapshot above.

The real cost & risk here
Before the list price, the Florida math the portals skip. These are St. Johns County typicals — your exact home, flood zone, and insurance quote will vary, so verify each before you offer.
Check it for your address: look up your flood zone (FEMA) · insurance by county · true-cost calculator · St. Johns County scorecard.
County typicals from Momentum’s Florida housing data (Zillow & Realtor.com aggregates, Census, FRED), updated monthly; insurance modeled. Flood zone is property-specific — always confirm via FEMA.

The Rhode buying strategy.
If we were buying in Rhode 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 Rhode.
A thin-volume St. Augustine pocket
With three closings in the window, Rhode Addn does not behave like a large subdivision with predictable comps. The per-square-foot figure near $409 and the median of $705,000 reflect a small set of homes, and one atypical sale can swing the picture. That means the story here is property-by-property: what a specific home offers on condition, size, and setting will drive its price more than any headline number.
The 109-day median tells you time is on the buyer's side right now. Well-prepared, correctly priced homes can still find a buyer, but the market is not rewarding optimistic pricing or deferred maintenance. For anyone on either side of a deal, the work is in the details of the individual house.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Rhode. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a low-volume pocket like this, the median only takes you so far. We underwrite each property against its own condition and comparables, price to the specific home rather than a neighborhood average, and set expectations honestly around a market where homes are taking well over three months to sell.
