Palencia sits in northern St Johns County, an easy run up US-1 from downtown St Augustine homes for sale and its beaches, laid out as a gated community around a golf course and marsh views. Assigned to well-regarded schools like Palencia Elementary feeders and Pacetti Bay Middle School, it draws families and professionals who want space and structure without leaving St Johns County. The broader area gives you neighbors like Silverleaf and Trailmark within a short drive.
The market here is thin and priced with intent: just two homes are active right now, with a median list of $559,500 and a wide $244,000–$875,000 spread. Both recent sales closed at a median of $735,000, and sellers pulled in about 95% of asking — but homes are sitting a median of 211 days, so buyers who move deliberately have room to negotiate.
