Ponte Vedra Beach Florida Homes for Sale | Real Estate

Luxury Homes for Sale in Ponte Vedra Beach

Ponte Vedra Beach has some of the highest priced homes in Northeast Florida. (Too see comparable homes you would have to travel down to Fort Lauderdale). This is due to having oceanfront and intracoastal waterway homes which demand the highest price out of any of our real estate. The second reason is the location in St. Johns County. This allows for lower property taxes and award winning school system. If you have ever driven down Ponte Vedra Blvd you will be have an idea of what some of the most expensive homes in Northeast Florida look like. You will be amazed by the lot size of some of these oceanfront estates! You can also visit our luxury home page to find more homes available in Northeast Florida.

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.  Your best bet for find a ready made new construction home in Ponte Vedra Beach is in Avalon or Payasada Estates.  Instead you will have better luck buying a lot and building from scratch.

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.

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.

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. You are separate 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 and Condos for Sale in Ponte Vedra Beach

Condos for sale in Ponte Vedra Beach can be split into those below $250,000 and those above. The condos below $250,000 are mainly going to be condo conversions. This means they are usually gated and have amenities such as community pool and tennis courts. Condos above $250,000 are mostly located in the Sawgrass Country Club such as Tifton Cove, Fisherman's Cove or Quail Run. In these condos you can get a view of the lake, golf course or marsh.

Ponte Vedra Beach Oceanfront Condos

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. The oceanfront condos are all located along Ponte Vedra Blvd between Corona Rd and Sawgrass Country Club. 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). Also, condos in Ponte Vedra Beach tend to be smaller in size  than the newer luxury oceanfront condos in Jacksonville Beach. 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.

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.
