True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
Market Heat
Price here is driven by proximity to the beach and by condition, not by square footage bragging rights. At a median of $475,000 and roughly $404 per square foot, you are paying for location on the island first and the house itself second — which means a well-kept, updated property and a tired one can sit at very different points around that median.
The current posture favors the patient buyer. With a median of about 153 days on market and a heat score of 20, this is a slow, unhurried market where sellers are not setting the terms. Buyers have room to inspect, negotiate, and walk away; sellers should price to the current reality and expect the process to take months, not weeks.
The 60-Second Overview
St Augustine Beach & Tenn market snapshot (as of July 11, 2026): the median sale price is about $475K ($404 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 153 days on market for closed sales.
St Augustine Beach & Tenn is a coastal St. Johns County pocket where the price of admission is tied to being on the island, and where homes are currently moving slowly enough that condition and pricing discipline decide who closes.

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.

A slow beach market that rewards patience
The headline numbers tell a consistent story. A median near $475,000 paired with a per-square-foot figure just above $400 signals that you are buying location and coastal access more than raw size. Expect a wide spread around that median depending on how updated a property is, how close it sits to the water, and whether it is turnkey or a project.
The pace is the other half of the picture. A median around 153 days on market, a thin recent closing count, and a low heat score all point to the same thing: inventory lingers and there is little urgency in the room. That is a disadvantage for a seller who needs speed, and an opening for a buyer willing to wait out the right listing and negotiate on it.
Why work with Momentum here
