The Crest
Homes for Sale in St. Augustine, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
As of September 2026, the MLS records 1 closed sale in The Crest in St. Augustine, FL, the most recent in March 2025. Across St. Augustine as a whole, 2,667 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $454,157, 53 median days on market, with 685 homes for sale today. At that median and St. Johns County's FY2025-26 rate of 13.47 mills, annual property tax runs about $6,120 ($5,600 with the full homestead exemption).
The Crest sits inside the World Golf Village corridor of northwest St. Augustine, and with no median price or listing count surfacing from current MLS data, the honest read is that this is a thin, condition-driven market right now. When inventory is this quiet, individual listings set the tone — a single well-kept home or a single tired one can define what a buyer sees on any given week.
For sellers, that means pricing off comparable recent activity rather than off a headline number, because there isn't one to lean on. For buyers, it means patience and a willingness to move when the right home appears, since the sample is small enough that opportunities don't repeat often.

The The Crest buying strategy.
If we were buying in The Crest 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 The Crest.
A thin corner of World Golf Village
What you're buying here is location within the broader WGV corridor, not a shared amenity package — current MLS listings surface no community amenities for The Crest itself. That puts the weight of any purchase decision on the individual home: its condition, its lot, and how it compares to what's moving nearby.
Because the active market is quiet, both sides should treat comparable sales and days-on-market trends in the surrounding WGV area as the primary reference point. This is a place where doing the homework on a specific address matters more than any community-level generalization.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in The Crest. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
