⭐ CHRIS'S TAKE
Opportunities to own an estate of this magnitude in Atlantic Beach are few and far between. Situated on a rare, nearly one-acre lot within the coveted Selva Marina subdivision, 1738 Selva Marina Drive is a masterclass in coastal sophistication. This custom-built residence offers a front-row seat to Atlantic Beach Country Club, featuring sweeping views of the 17th hole, the 18th tee, and tranquil water vistas. Step inside to find 4,188 square feet of meticulously curated living space, defined by a significant 2023 renovation that blends timeless architecture with modern luxury. The interior is anchored by stunning white oak flooring and soaring, custom-detailed ceilings that invite natural light into every corner. At the heart of the home, the remodeled gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream, outfitted with premium surfaces and high-end finishes that flow seamlessly into the living areas. With four spacious bedrooms and 4.5 beautifully updated bathrooms, the home offers both privacy and comfort. Every detail has been considered, from the peace of mind provided by impact-rated windows to the classic aesthetic of the cedar shake exterior. The outdoor living space is a true private sanctuary. A sprawling covered lanai with fireplace overlooks a sparkling saltwater pool and spa, creating the perfect backdrop for sunset cocktails or quiet mornings watching the golfers play through. The expansive grounds, featuring a stately circular driveway and lush landscaping, offer a sense of scale and seclusion that is virtually impossible to find so close to the ocean. Beyond the gates of this no-HOA estate, you're just a golf cart ride away from the vibrant life of Atlantic Beach and the top-rated Atlantic Beach Elementary. This is more than just a home; it is the ultimate expression of the coastal luxury lifestyle.

Florida Reality Check: Storms, Taxes & Infrastructure

Every Florida home buyer and tenant needs an honest breakdown of local due diligence facts before signing an agreement. Here is the exact infrastructure profile for 1738 SELVA MARINA Drive, Atlantic Beach, FL 32233:

🛡️ FEMA Flood Zone & Evacuation Risk

Zone X / Minimal Hazard Elevation
Duval County sits in inland North Florida at an average elevation of 167 feet above sea level. This parcel is outside all designated hurricane storm-surge evacuation zones. Standard homeowners insurance excludes flood coverage, but optional private flood policies in Zone X are among the lowest cost in Florida.

🏚️ Roof Material & Structural Status

Roof Status (2012)
In Florida, roof age and material drive homeowners insurance premiums more than almost any other physical factor. Windstorm mitigation inspections verify hurricane clips and roof deck attachment, securing significant insurance premium discounts.

🚽 Waste & Utility Infrastructure

Septic Tank & Private Well System
Rural Duval County parcels rely on private well water and onsite septic drainfields. We recommend a full septic tank scope & pump inspection plus well water quality testing during your inspection period.

💰 Taxes, Save Our Homes & CDD Status

No CDD Fees · Save Our Homes Tax Reset
Unlike master-planned communities in Clay or St. Johns County, Duval County has $0 CDD fees. Property taxes reset upon purchase under Florida law; we calculate your exact projected Year 1 tax bill based on the purchase price and homestead exemptions.
