Amelia Park
More than three hundred single-family dwellings exist in this growing neighborhood (along with townhouses and condos). Stroll down the street to see neighbors enjoying a glass of cold ice tea with one another on picture-perfect front porches or chatting over white picket fences. The beach isn’t much more than a stone’s throw away, easily walkable when it’s time to fill a bucket with white sand or to kick off your flip-flops and cool down. Enjoy a relaxing, informal ambiance in Amelia Park, meandering down walking paths or heading to concerts and holiday festivals.

Linkside Villas
This neighborhood serves as a perfect example of how what would be ideal for one family wouldn’t for another. In this case, it depends upon how much you prioritize golf in your lifestyle. Nestled in a live oak forest are premier golf villas, often with views of the seventh, eighth, and/or seventeenth holes of the Ocean Links Golf Course. If this intrigues you, options exist with two or three bedrooms—each with an individual bath, a one-car detached carport, and storage space. Amenities include a wet bar and fireplace. If you’re not sure how you’d feel living in this type of community, we’ve got a resource that shares pros and cons of living in a golf community.

Questions to Ask About Amelia Island Luxury Homes
Once you find a piece of Amelia Island real estate that intrigues you, schedule a tour of the home and ask questions like these to ensure that it’s the right choice for you:
-
What’s the square footage of the home, property, and outbuildings?
-
How many bedrooms and bathrooms? What is their square footage?
-
How much are property taxes, special assessments, and HOA fees?
-
Is flood insurance required?
-
What should I know about HOA requirements for this home?
-
What is the HOA culture?
-
What amenities would we benefit from if we bought this home?
-
How is security handled in this community?
If answers please you and mesh with what you want, inspect the home in question more closely. Discover the age of the home, the condition of major home systems (HVAC, plumbing, electrical and the like) and structures like the roof. If repairs are coming due, you may end up negotiating for the seller to handle them before the home transfers to you. Consider, too, what renovations you’d like to make if you purchased the dwelling.
