Discover Homes in Markland, Saint Augustine

Markland occupies a well-chosen position in the World Golf Village corridor, a part of Saint Johns County that has grown substantially over the past decade without losing the lower-density character that draws buyers here in the first place. The community sits on 314 acres and was designed around a formal garden and classical architecture aesthetic, centered on the Manor House, a Greek Revival-style clubhouse that serves as the social and recreational hub of the neighborhood. The scale of the amenity package is meaningful at this price point, and it shows throughout the common areas.

Homes in Markland are single-family residences, predominantly built between 2018 and 2021. Floor plans run from roughly 2,800 square feet on the smaller end to over 3,700 square feet, with three to five bedrooms and three to four bathrooms. A portion of the community's lots back to water, which adds privacy and long views for those listings. The HOA fee is $125 annually, which is modest relative to what the amenity package delivers.

The broader location works in Markland's favor in practical terms. World Golf Village and its several courses are nearby, and Historic Downtown Saint Augustine is less than 15 miles away. Jacksonville's employment and retail centers are accessible via I-95 without requiring a long surface-road commute. For buyers who need to move between the two cities regularly, the location reduces friction considerably.
