Flagler Estates offers affordable homes on large lots

Flagler Estates is a residential community that offers plenty of space and privacy in rural St Johns County between Palatka and St. Augustine. There are more than 6,000 acres of residential lots along an easy-to-navigate grid of streets shaded by mature trees. Residents enjoy tranquil country living and seclusion near the St. Johns River. “It has probably the lowest price point in the county with bigger lots that are at least an acre and sometimes 2 or 3 acres,” says Ray Feliciano of Florida Homes Realty & Mortgage, who has sold homes in Flagler Estates.

New homes still occupy lots of an acre or more

New construction includes lower-priced manufactured homes, but most of the residential additions in recent years have come in the form of contemporary single-family homes that feature paved driveways and attached garages. “It’s a growing community,” Feliciano says. “It’s gone from just mobile homes to a place with the possibility of growing wealth and ownership.” New homes are built on the same large lots, so regardless of home style, ample yard space is standard. Prices typically range from around $200,000 to more than $400,000. The occasional multi-acreage home offers room for amenities such as horse stables. The community began with dirt roads, but most have been paved in recent years to improve the infrastructure for a growing population. A recent hit-and-run of a child waiting for the bus has spurred calls for more street lights. Because of the river’s proximity, flooding is a moderate risk throughout the year. Wind damage is a high risk during hurricane season from June through November.
