Frequently asked questions
The questions buyers ask us most about this collection.
What types of garages do homes in Palencia St. Augustine have?
Palencia homes feature 2-car to 3-car garages, many with updated doors and systems. Several properties include garage refrigerators, enhanced storage, and improved ventilation systems. The garages accommodate vehicles comfortably while providing additional storage space for homeowners who value organization and security.
Are there ample parking options in Palencia beyond the garage?
Yes, Palencia homes feature spacious driveways with paved surfaces that provide multiple parking spaces. Many properties include extended patio areas, circular driveways, and additional off-street parking solutions. The community maintains excellent parking infrastructure throughout, ensuring residents have convenient access.
What amenities are included with homes in Palencia St. Augustine?
Palencia residents enjoy resort-style amenities including four swimming pools, championship Arthur Hills golf course, tennis and pickleball courts, state-of-the-art fitness center, miles of scenic boardwalks and nature trails, multiple parks, playgrounds, and dog parks. Optional golf and social memberships are available at The Palencia Club for dining and recreational activities.
Does the Palencia HOA allow for boat or RV parking on these larger driveways?
While Palencia is prized for its spacious driveways, the community maintains high aesthetic standards. Generally, boats, trailers, and RVs must be stored within your enclosed garage and cannot be parked permanently on the driveway. However, recent Florida legislation (HB 1203) has shifted some landscape for HOAs, often allowing for temporary parking (typically 24–48 hours) for loading, unloading, or trip prep. For those with larger "toys," many residents opt for homes with 4-car tandem garages or seek out the rare estate lots that allow for side-entry garages where vehicles can be tucked away out of view.
How far is Palencia from beaches and downtown St. Augustine?
Palencia is conveniently located just minutes from historic downtown St. Augustine and the region's beautiful Atlantic beaches. The community also offers quick access to Jacksonville, JAX International Airport, and St. Augustine Private Airport. Shopping, restaurants, and boutiques are nearby on Market Street and throughout the surrounding area.
Why invest in a Palencia home now?
Palencia offers exceptional value as a master-planned community with proven appreciation. Homes feature updated mechanical systems, modern upgrades, and strong rental potential. The gated community's amenities, A-rated schools, and proximity to beaches and historic sites make it highly desirable for both primary residences and investment properties.
Are "Golf Cart Garages" a standard feature in these premium homes?
Yes, many of the newer and custom-built estates in Palencia include a dedicated golf cart garage or an oversized "extra bay" specifically designed for LSVs (Low-Speed Vehicles). Because Palencia is a golf-cart-friendly community with miles of paths connecting the residential pockets to the Arthur Hills-designed course and the Village Center, having a separate bay allows you to keep your primary garage free for full-sized vehicles while ensuring your cart stays charged and protected. This is a significant "must-have" for buyers looking to maximize the active Palencia lifestyle without sacrificing car storage space.
