The homes for sale in St. Augustine Shores have always been competitively priced and much sought after. The subdivision was originated in the early 1970’s and was built in 8 stages. It is located bordering the Intercoastal Waterway and is only 8 miles west of the Atlantic Ocean. The Deltona Corporation was the developer and planned the community to span over 2,000 acres. Currently homes for sale in this development span $65,000 - $525,00. The higher priced homes for sale may have superb views of the Intercoastal Waterway or even a dock. Condos range from $54,000 - $209,000, and again can have surprisingly sensational water or marsh views.
Some homes of the initial phase were modular homes set on concrete foundations located close to US 1 South. These homes are of modest sizes such as 1-2 bedrooms and 1-2 baths totaling 600-1000 Square Feet. As concrete block homes were added, the sizes increased along with the number of bedrooms and bathrooms.
Subsequent models provided additional sizes totaling 2500 square feet and even higher. Toll Brothers took over the building project and reduced the scope of the original development size from the originally intended 5,000+ homes to 3300. There are also multi-family units with condos.
The designated parkland, preserve areas, walking trails and bass-filled lakes set this community apart. The community amenities are included clubhouse, pool, shuffleboard court, baseball field. Activities at the Riverview Facility include exercise and ballroom dance classes, billards, sit-down dinners, movie night, and educational lectures . The calendar of social events remains very extensive. There is a pier on the Intercoastal perfect for fishing and sunset watching. St. Johns County Fire and Rescue has a location within the Shores on the main thoroughfare, Shores Boulevard. Secured storage for RVs and boat is also available.
The St. Augustine Shores Service Corporation manages the common grounds and home owner’s in the single family residences currently pay $27.50 per month for this service. The condos are managed under a separate board and have 3 pools of their own.
