The Homes & Style
Per floridarealestatecentral data referenced in June 2026, the trailing-12-month average sale price was 287,994 dollars, while active asks ran 320,000 to 465,000 dollars at about 172 dollars per square foot, a gap worth respecting in negotiations.
Silver Creek competes against the new-construction wave in Lake Asbury, so resales win on mature lots, settled streets, and no construction traffic, and lose on builder incentives.
The buyer pool is buyers targeting the Lake Asbury school corridor and commuters using the First Coast Expressway.
Silver Creek is a single-product resale community, so the decisions are size band, condition, and lot.
Homes from about 1,257 square feet; the entry point, and the tier that competes with new townhomes on price.
Mid-size plans up to about 3,124 square feet at the top; the volume of the community sits between the extremes.
The small sibling plat next door, treated locally as part of the same area; comps cross between them.
Preserve and pond-backing lots carry the premium; interior lots are the value buy.
Living Here
The HOA amenity set is modest, but the park across the street changes the math entirely.
The HOA centerpiece for a reported 475 dollars per year, which is hard to beat in this corridor.
The in-neighborhood family anchors, connected by sidewalks.
Ninety acres directly across the road: fields, trails, fishing ponds, and event space, run by the county.
The whole community walks, which matters with the park across the street.
Daily needs split between the County Road 220 corridor toward Fleming Island and the growing retail along the Lake Asbury corridor itself, with Fleming Island carrying the full grocery and dining load about fifteen minutes out.
Per floridarealestatecentral in June 2026, trailing sales averaged 287,994 dollars while asks ran 320,000 to 465,000; that spread is negotiating room if you price the comps honestly.
Buyers compare HOA pool lists and miss that 90 county-maintained acres across the street outclass any private amenity campus in the corridor, at zero dues.
Homes here were built 2005 to 2013, so roof and HVAC age now separates the inventory; a recently re-roofed home is worth real money in insurance terms, and listings do not always price that correctly.
Before You Offer
Price the all-in monthly first. Silver Creek carries an HOA, and many Clay master plans of this era carry a CDD assessment on the tax bill, so confirm both and pull any CDD balance and term for the parcel.
Compare new construction to resale carefully, weighing builder incentives, lot premiums, and timelines against a move-in-ready resale in a delivered phase.
Confirm the lot for pond, preserve, or interior position, and what is built or planned around it as the community grows.
Confirm school assignment by address with Clay County Schools, and weigh how the First Coast Expressway changes your commute.
Silver Creek vs. Comparable Clay Communities
Silver Creek competes with the other newer master plans of the Lake Asbury and Green Cove Springs area. Against the larger Clay master plans, it offers a newer, amenity-equipped community positioned for the First Coast Expressway, while established communities counter with maturity and deeper amenities.
Against Fleming Island to the north, Silver Creek trades an established, built-out community for newer construction and a value price in a fast-improving corridor. The honest shorthand: pick Silver Creek for new construction and expressway-driven access; pick an established community for maturity and amenities.
Who Silver Creek Fits Best
Silver Creek fits buyers who want new construction with an amenity area in the fast-growing Lake Asbury and Green Cove Springs area, anyone positioned to benefit from the First Coast Expressway, and buyers comfortable trading any CDD assessment for a newer, lower-maintenance home.
Silver Creek is a weaker fit buyers who want no CDD and the lowest carrying cost, those who prefer mature, established streets, or anyone seeking golf or a large town center.
