New Construction Homes for Sale in Ponte Vedra Beach

Ponte Vedra Beach is already built out with large, planned gated golf communities. That is not to say there are not new construction homes available. But the chance of having a new home ready to move into at the exact time you are ready is low.  We are seeing some homes get knocked down in the "Old Ponte Vedra" area around the Ponte Vedra Inn & Club area east of A1A just to get land to build on.

Almost New For Us

Your best bet for find close to new construction home in Ponte Vedra Beach is in Quadrille, Avalon or Payasada Estates. 

Vacant Lots

Lots are few and far between in the gated golf communities. But you do have lots for sale along Ponte Vedra Blvd, Roscoe Blvd and in our smaller communities.

New Condos

Should you be looking for a new condo in Ponte Vedra Beach then you are out of luck. Our newest condos are around Mickler's Landing at Neck Rd and A1A. So drive by and give them a look if your interested.

Ponte Vedra is NOT Ponte Vedra Beach

Don't get confused with the many new homes available in Nocatee. Nocatee is in Ponte Vedra FL not Ponte Vedra Beach FL. An easy way to tell the difference is when looking at a single family home you like if the zip code is 32082 then you are looking at a Ponte Vedra Beach home. If the zip code is 32081 then you are looking at a Ponte Vedra FL or Nocatee FL home.

Ponte Vedra is separated from Ponte Vedra Beach by the intracoastal waterway. So this puts you about 20 minute drive to the ocean. It's a great area but it is not considered Ponte Vedra Beach. Let me repeat ... other than not being closer to the ocean, Nocatee is wonderful! (It's just not Ponte Vedra Beach FL real estate).

Townhomes

Townhomes are in low supply in Ponte Vedra Beach. You have some in Turtleback Crossing in Sawgrass Players Club and some down in South Ponte Vedra. We do have some condos that look like townhomes in Sawgrass Country Club called Deer Run and Little Bay Harbor.

Condos

Condos for sale in Ponte Vedra Beach can be split into those below $450,000 and those above.

Below $450,000

The condos below $450,000 are mainly going to be condo conversions. This means they use to be apartments and are usually gated and have amenities such as community pool and tennis courts. They are typically 3 story buildings without elevators.

Above $450,000

Condos above $450,000 are mostly located in the gated golf club, Sawgrass Country Club. This includes:

• Tifton Cove,
• Fisherman's Cove
• or Quail Run.

In these condos you can get a view of the lake, golf course or marsh behind a manned security gate and ocean access.

Ponte Vedra Beach Oceanfront Condos

Stories

Oceanfront condos for sale in Ponte Vedra Beach are in low supply. Ponte Vedra Beach does not have high rise oceanfront condos like Jacksonville Beach or Fort Lauderdale. Instead the highest condos are 4 stories max.

Location

The oceanfront condos are all located along Ponte Vedra Blvd between Corona Rd and Sawgrass Country Club.

Sawgrass Country Club is home to the a good amount of the oceanfront condos and also gives you gated security along with a country club with membership. So make sure you check it out.

Price

The cost of condos are always at a premium price because prices in Ponte Vedra Beach are already elevated and condos are in low supply. (If you are looking for affordable oceanfront condos in St Johns County then you should check out St. Augustine Beach).

Size

Also, condos in Ponte Vedra Beach tend to be smaller in size  than the newer luxury oceanfront condos in Jacksonville Beach which has condos over 4000sf.

Other Options

You can still enjoy the beach without living on it! There are public beach access up and down the beach. But if you want to bring your car to the beach you need to visit Mickler's Landing or join one of the beach clubs like Ponte Vedra Inn & Club.

History of Ponte Vedra Beach

Ponte Vedra, or Ponte Vedra Beach, received its name after the founding fathers of Mineral City FL decided that a name change was in order. The beaches around the current town of Ponte Vedra Beach are full of rich minerals, but the name just wasn't adequate in an era that was becoming increasingly tourist-oriented. One of the founders of Mineral Beach read a news article that said Christopher Columbus had been born in Pontevedra, Spain. The story was not correct, but the name was attractive, and it stuck. Ponte Vedra Beach it became.

A Great City with a Strange Name

Ponte Vedra Beach doesn't mean anything. I'm not sure if local legend regarding our name is true. But if you are not from the area then you might of searched the web for for "ponte verde fl", "pointe verde florida" or just "vedra florida" before you found us.
