Magnolia Point, Green Cove Springs

Market snapshot

Forty-eight closings were recorded at a median of $552,000 and roughly $219 a square foot. Homes averaged 81 days on market with 5.2 months of supply, which the source reads as buyer-leaning. Median price was about 5% below the prior year. In practice: real inventory to choose from, room to negotiate, and a seller who prices ambitiously should expect a long summer.

Market figures above are aggregated community sales data taken from the public community-data index published at the website movewithmomentum.com (an unaffiliated third party), dataset generated 2026-07-13, reflecting sales as of 2026-07-09. Figures are area aggregates, not an appraisal or a valuation of any individual home, and they change as new sales record. HOA dues, CDD fees and property taxes are NOT shown here: the only figures available for them are modelled estimates rather than recorded amounts. Ask Tim Sherman for the current recorded numbers before you rely on them.

What to check before you buy here

Golf-community fees are not one number. Ask separately about the mandatory association assessment, any club membership requirement, and what the transfer or capital contribution is at closing. Also ask when the roof and the HVAC were replaced — in a community of this vintage those two items decide whether an offer survives inspection. Ask for a wind mitigation inspection regardless of roof age — at this price point the credits available for hurricane-rated openings and a properly strapped roof are large enough to matter, and older homes in a golf community like this one commonly need a four-point inspection before a carrier will write or renew the policy.

How the golf-community fees actually work

A Community Development District, where one exists, is really two separate obligations under Florida Statute Chapter 190: a bond-debt portion that funded the original infrastructure and that a homeowner can pay off in full, and an operations-and-maintenance portion — covering the golf course, the clubhouse, the gate and the landscaping — that continues for as long as you own the home. Layer a mandatory country club membership on top of that and you can have three separate line items on one Magnolia Point closing statement. Ask for the current recorded CDD figure, the HOA due, and the membership category in writing before you make an offer; do not rely on a Zillow-style estimate for any of the three.

Commute, schools, and the flood check

Magnolia Point falls in the Clay High School Zone, which covers Green Cove Springs, Lake Asbury and Middleburg east — confirm the current elementary and middle assignment with Clay County Schools before you rely on it. The First Coast Expressway is opening up a faster run from this side of Green Cove Springs to I-10 and, beyond it, NAS Jacksonville, though it is still a longer commute than Orange Park or Fleming Island. And because Green Cove Springs sits directly on the St. Johns River, I pull the FEMA flood map for the specific lot before every Magnolia Point offer, golf course frontage or not — a low spot near a cart path drains differently than the rest of the property, and that is worth knowing before your inspection period runs out.

What a slow, buyer-leaning season means here

Forty-eight closings is enough volume to trust the 81-day average and the 5.2 months of supply as a real read on this market, not noise from a handful of sales. Buyer-leaning at this price point usually means sellers who need to move price to the current market rather than to last year's comp, and buyers who can afford to be patient and negotiate repairs rather than waive them. A 5% pullback on a $552,000 median is a meaningful number in dollar terms, and I would rather tell a Magnolia Point seller that directly than let them find out from a stale offer three weeks into the listing.
