If you’ve lived along the CR 210 corridor in St. Johns County for a while, you already know how dramatically this area has changed.
What was once a quieter stretch of St. Johns County has become one of the area's most established residential corridors, with shopping, restaurants, new construction and a variety of communities.
It also offers something I particularly love about this part of St. Johns County: several very different options for golf course living.
From established neighborhoods like Cimarrone, South Hampton and St. Johns Golf & Country Club to the newer Stillwater 55+ community, homeowners can change homes — and even lifestyles — without necessarily leaving the CR 210 area they already know.
And for homeowners who bought here about a decade ago, there’s another interesting part of the story:
The amount of equity they may have built.
What Has Happened to Home Values in 10 Years?
I recently went back through recorded residential sales in Cimarrone and South Hampton to compare 2016 sale prices with 2026 year-to-date sales.
The change was significant.
Cimarrone: Median Sale Price Up Approximately 76%
In 2016, the median recorded sale price in Cimarrone was approximately $330,000.
In 2026 year-to-date, the median recorded sale price is approximately $580,000.
That's an increase of approximately 76% in the neighborhood median sale price over the past decade.
For someone who purchased a Cimarrone home around 2016 and has owned it ever since, that raises an interesting question:
How much equity could be sitting in that home today?
South Hampton: Median Sale Price Up Approximately 69%
South Hampton tells a similar story.
The median recorded sale price in 2016 was approximately $361,500.
In 2026 year-to-date, the median recorded sale price is approximately $609,500.
That's an increase of approximately 69%.
Of course, these figures represent neighborhood median sale prices — not the appreciation of any individual property.
A home's current market value can vary substantially based on square footage, renovations, condition, age of major systems, pool, lot, view and location within the neighborhood.
But these numbers illustrate just how much the market along the CR 210 corridor has changed over the past decade.
Four Different Ways to Enjoy Golf Course Living Along CR 210
One of the things that makes the CR 210 corridor interesting is that you don't have just one type of golf community.
Cimarrone
Cimarrone is an established gated golf community with mature landscaping and a variety of home styles and sizes.
For homeowners who purchased years ago — particularly those who have updated their homes — today's value may look considerably different from what they originally paid.
South Hampton
South Hampton is another established golf community along the corridor, with homes ranging from more manageable floor plans to considerably larger properties.
After years of ownership, some South Hampton homeowners may find themselves with substantial equity — and perhaps more house than they need today.
St. Johns Golf & Country Club
St. Johns Golf & Country Club provides another established option for homeowners who enjoy the golf-course lifestyle while remaining convenient to the rest of St. Johns County and Jacksonville.
For someone who loves this area but is ready for a different home, moving doesn't necessarily mean leaving the CR 210 corridor.
Stillwater: A Different Option for the Next Chapter
Stillwater brings something different to the CR 210 golf-community mix: 55+ living.
For longtime homeowners beginning to think about downsizing, reducing maintenance or simply changing how they want to spend their time, Stillwater provides an option without necessarily leaving the familiar CR 210 area.
And downsizing doesn't have to mean moving into a tiny house.
For many homeowners, it's simply about finding a home that fits the life they're living now rather than the life they needed 10 or 20 years ago.
Your Home Equity Could Be Part of Your Next Move
This is where those 10-year numbers become more than interesting statistics.
If you've owned your home for years, you've potentially benefited from both mortgage principal reduction and rising neighborhood values.
That equity may create options you haven't considered.
It could help fund a move to a smaller home, provide a larger down payment, make a mortgage-free purchase possible, help with a move closer to family, or become part of another real estate investment.
And sometimes the right answer is simply:
Stay exactly where you are.
Knowing what your property may be worth doesn't mean you're putting a For Sale sign in the yard.
It simply gives you information.
What Could Your CR 210 Home Be Worth Today?
If you've owned your home in Cimarrone, South Hampton, St. Johns Golf & Country Club, Stillwater or another CR 210-area community for several years, you may be surprised by how much has changed.

Sometimes it's simply good to know where you stand — and what your next chapter could look like.
