South Hampton Homes for Sale in St. Augustine, FL

South Hampton is one of the more affordable golf communities in the area, with homes historically starting in the mid-to-upper $300s and trading by size, lot, and view. The no-CDD advantage lowers the carrying cost relative to comparable CR-210 communities, and the golf course, the green space, and the St. Johns schools support steady demand.

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 a multi-builder community, pricing to the specific home and view is essential.

South Hampton's multiple builders give it a wide range of homes, and the builder and lot define the purchase.

Providence Homes, Beazer Homes, and ICI Homes built across the community, so floor plans and finishes vary.

Homes run roughly 1,200 to 4,500 square feet, from smaller attainable homes to larger family homes.

Many homes back to the golf course, a lake, or woods, so the view is a defining feature.

South Hampton pairs golf with deep green space.

An 18-hole course with 16 lakes and just over 60 bunkers, family-owned and known as one of the more player-friendly courses in the area, with its own set of tees just for kids and membership packages from single to full family.

Over 100 acres of parks and lakes, plus adult and children's pools, set the community apart from denser golf neighborhoods.

Walking trails, tennis and basketball courts, and a soccer field round out the recreation.

Everyday shopping and dining are developing along the CR-210 corridor and a short drive toward the World Golf Village area and SR-16. The St. Johns Town Center adds big-box and upscale options about 20 to 25 minutes north.

On CR-210, a CDD can add hundreds a month to a comparable home. South Hampton has none, so compare carrying costs, not just sticker prices.

Living in South Hampton is not the same as a golf membership. Confirm the Club at South Hampton terms if golf is a priority.

Three builders worked here over years, so floor plans and roof ages vary. Confirm the builder, the plan, and the roof age before you commit.

St. Johns County flooding concentrates near the Intracoastal, the coast, and the creeks and marshes, while many inland master-planned communities sit in lower-risk zones.

The reliable move is to pull the FEMA flood designation for the exact South Hampton 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.

St. Johns County is well served by AT&T (fiber in most newer communities) and Xfinity (Comcast), though fiber availability still varies by street. If working from home matters, confirm the options, and fiber in particular, at the specific South Hampton address rather than assuming.

St. Johns County total millage varies by district, and CDD assessments are common in the master-planned communities, which adds to the all-in cost on top of the millage. 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.

South Hampton sits among the CR-210 golf and master-planned communities, and the honest comparison is against its neighbors. The gated Cimarrone, directly across CR-210, trades the no-CDD value here for controlled access and its own course. St. Johns Golf & Country Club nearby offers larger homes and a CDD-owned aquatic center, but carries a CDD on the tax bill. The larger Durbin Crossing adds resort-scale amenities and new-construction options, with its own CDD and higher density. South Hampton wins on the no-CDD carrying cost, the affordable entry, and the over-100-acre country setting; it loses to Cimarrone on gating and to Durbin Crossing on amenity scale. The right one depends on your budget, your preference for gated, and the CDD question.

South Hampton fits the buyer who wants golf-community living and a country setting at the lowest carrying cost on CR-210, and who will do the builder-and-condition homework that a multi-builder resale market requires. If a no-CDD tax structure, an affordable entry, over 100 acres of parks and lakes, and top-rated St. Johns schools matter more than gating or a brand-new build, and if you will price the carrying cost rather than the sticker, few CR-210 communities compete on value.
