St. Ives
Homes for Sale in St. Augustine Shores, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
St. Ives is a small pocket inside St. Augustine Shores, and in a community this size price is driven less by any published range and more by the specific home: its condition, its updates, and where it sits. There is no reliable entry or ceiling figure to quote here, so treat each listing on its own merits rather than assuming a neighborhood-wide number.
For buyers, that means the work is in comparing homes directly rather than leaning on a headline stat. For sellers, it means presentation and condition do the heavy lifting — a well-prepared home stands apart quickly in a niche this compact, and a tired one is easy to spot.
Figures in this note are as of July 12, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.

The 60-Second Overview
St. Ives is a modest enclave within St. Augustine Shores in St. Johns County, close enough to the Shores' amenities and to St. Augustine proper to trade on location as much as on any single price point.
Pre-construction details are compiled from public records, builder announcements and builder listings, and are subject to change without notice; figures are deemed reliable but not guaranteed. Momentum Research figures are our own analysis. This page describes homes, pricing and community attributes, not residents.
Who St. Ives is best for.
Best for
- Buyers prioritizing a St. Johns County location over a large menu of listings
- Those who value proximity to the Shores' amenities and to downtown St. Augustine
- Patient buyers willing to wait for the right home in a low-inventory pocket
Probably not for
- Buyers who need many options on the market at once
- Those wanting an oceanfront or historic-district address
- Anyone who wants a fixed price band to shop against rather than a home-by-home evaluation

The St. Ives buying strategy.
If we were buying in St. Ives 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 St. Ives.
A small pocket inside the Shores
St. Augustine Shores is an established, spread-out community, and St. Ives reads as one of its interior sections rather than a standalone development. That matters for expectations: inventory here is thin by nature, so what is available at any given moment shapes the whole picture. Waiting for the right home often makes more sense than forcing a purchase.
The trade-off is proximity. You are within reach of the Shores' shared amenities and a short drive from downtown St. Augustine and the coast, without paying the premium that oceanfront or historic-district addresses command. The value case here is location and setting, evaluated home by home.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in St. Ives. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
