TrailMark Homes for Sale in Saint Augustine, FL

TrailMark is one of the more accessible new-construction master plans in top-rated St. Johns County, which is a big part of its appeal. As of 2026, homes start around $352,990 (low-to-mid $300,000s), making it one of the more affordable ways into the St. Johns school district with full resort amenities, and range up into the $900,000s depending on builder, size, and lot. Most of the market sits in the $400,000s to $600,000s.

Several factors shape the real cost. Lot premiums for preserve and pond-view homesites add to the base. Upgrades and design options move the number quickly across all four builders. Builder incentives are active and can include closing-cost contributions and rate buydowns, so comparing builders pays off. And the community carries the Six Mile CDD assessment (roughly $2,000 to $3,333 a year depending on lot) plus a modest HOA (around $100 a year), which factor into the monthly cost. The 2026 rate environment has builders motivated to move homes, so there is room to negotiate.

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 new community like TrailMark, builder pricing, incentives, lot selection, and your representation matter more than resale comps, which is where an agent who knows the community pays off.

Because TrailMark is actively building out, the buying decision starts with the builder and the phase. Four established builders share the community, each with their own plans and price points, and seven model homes are open for tours.

Dream Finders Homes offers around six distinctive floor plans designed to reflect the community's Old Florida character, with move-in-ready homes and to-be-built options. Drees Homes brings its semi-custom plans, including quick-move-ins and custom builds in newer phases. Lennar offers its plans with the Everything's Included program. Richmond American rounds out the roster with its own flexible designs. Mastercraft Builder Group has also been part of the community. The mix gives buyers a wide range of styles, sizes, and price points within one community.

Homes range from roughly 1,600 to over 4,000 square feet across the builders, in one- and two-story designs, with the newest release, Phase 12, featuring preserve and pond-view homesites. Because the community builds in phases, which lots and plans are available changes over time, and preserve and pond-view lots carry premiums. There is also Reverie at TrailMark, a gated 55-plus active-adult neighborhood with its own exclusive amenities and clubhouse for buyers who want age-targeted, low-maintenance living.

TrailMark carries both quick-move-in homes (already under construction or complete, faster to close, less customization) and to-be-built homes (choose the plan, lot, and finishes, more personalization but a longer timeline). With multiple builders and active phases, inventory shifts constantly, so current availability matters, and comparing builders side by side is worthwhile.

Amenities are central to TrailMark's identity, and the package is built around the outdoors and community gathering. The amenity center is complete and in use.

TrailMark's completed amenity center includes a state-of-the-art fitness center, a resort-style lagoon pool with a free-form, zero-entry beach design, a separate lap pool, sports courts, and a lakeside Camp House pavilion for gatherings and events. It is the social hub of the community, hosting the regular events and clubs that give TrailMark its strong neighborly culture.

The outdoor amenities are the heart of TrailMark. Miles of interconnected walking and biking trails wind through old-growth oak and pine woods, fishing lakes dot the community, and a kayak launch on Six Mile Creek gives residents direct paddling access that connects to the St. Johns River. A dog park and a nature-based children's playground round out the recreation. For an outdoor-focused buyer, this trail-and-water package is the main draw.

TrailMark is known for its sense of community, driven by a full event calendar: food truck nights, seasonal markets, the Groove in the Grove music festival, the annual Conquer the Trails 5K, and a range of hobby clubs. That programming, paired with the Camp House and the trails, makes the community feel social and connected, which residents consistently mention as a reason they chose and stay in TrailMark.

TrailMark is close to solid shopping and dining despite its secluded, wooded setting. The World Golf Village area right nearby offers restaurants, shops, golf, and entertainment, and the St. Augustine Premium Outlets (about 10 to 15 minutes away) provide major outlet shopping, with grocery stores and everyday services along the International Golf Parkway and CR-16 corridors.

Historic downtown St. Augustine, about 20 to 25 minutes south, adds its renowned dining, boutiques, and historic charm, and the St. Johns Town Center is reachable to the north. For a community in the growing World Golf Village area, TrailMark's access to the outlets, World Golf Village, and St. Augustine gives it a convenient and characterful shopping and dining picture, with more retail growing along the corridor as the area develops.

A few things that consistently come up once buyers get serious about an outdoor-focused community like TrailMark.

For top-rated St. Johns County schools with full resort amenities, TrailMark's pricing from the low $300,000s is among the most accessible in the county. Buyers chasing the school district on a tighter budget should have it on the list, especially if the World Golf Village location works for them.

With Dream Finders, Drees, Lennar, and Richmond American all building here, comparing them side by side matters, different plans, included features, and incentives. Lennar's Everything's Included approach versus a semi-custom Drees build can change both the price and the experience, which is exactly where an agent who knows the community helps.

This is true everywhere in new construction, but it bears repeating: many builders will not let you add agent representation if you register on your own first. Contact your agent before you ever walk into a TrailMark model, so you keep representation that works only for you.

TrailMark's HOA is modest (around $100 a year), but the Six Mile CDD runs roughly $2,000 to $3,333 a year depending on the lot. Combined with the post-first-year tax reset on a new build, the true monthly runs above the base price, so model the real number 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 TrailMark 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 TrailMark 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.

Most buyers weighing TrailMark are comparing it with the other St. Johns master plans. Here is the honest shorthand.

TrailMark fits the buyer who wants into the top St. Johns school district on a tighter budget and values an outdoor-forward lifestyle. If trails, fishing lakes, a kayak launch, and a strong event culture matter more than a beach-close address or a built-out setting, and if you will compare the four builders and model the Six Mile CDD before you commit, it is one of the better-value new-construction communities in the county.
