Reading the numbers
The end of the court. Jacob Grace Ct runs 12720 to 12836 in eleven houses, all under one plat, all lakefront on Lake Butler, all built between 2003 and 2007. This closes the sequence, and it is also the parcel the county's distance field places furthest from the water at 1,936 m — 425 m beyond 12720 at the head of the court. Every one of those parcels carries the same lakefront flag regardless.
$385 a foot is sixth-lowest of eleven, and just above the $381 median of the ten houses below the outlier. That band runs $308 to $448, so this sits near its middle.
Four bedrooms and five and a half baths clears one-per-bedroom by a bath and a half, the same ratio as 12720 and 12830 and a more generous allocation than the two houses here that fall short. 1,222 sq ft of house per bedroom — second-densest of the four-bedroom group on this street, behind only 12818's 1,019.
The improvement is $1,080,402, or $221 a foot of building, against the flat $800,000 of land the county files on every lakefront parcel here. That sits just under the street's $223 median on that measure, which is the ordinary outcome for a mid-sized house on a fixed lot: it carries the same ground as its larger neighbours and spreads it further than its smaller ones.
Two hundred feet from a house almost the same size. 12830 is 5,338 sq ft — 450 more — built one year later, with the same four bedrooms, the same five and a half baths, and the same 2007 window. It is assessed $508,268 higher and prices $63 a foot higher. Nothing in the filed row separates the two houses except that $450 of floor, and $450 sq ft does not generate half a million dollars at $221 a foot.
No sale is filed against this parcel. Eight of the eleven houses on the court carry no recorded price, so most of what this street shows is the county's own valuation with nothing recent to test it against.
Reading the frontage
Lakefront is a mapped-polygon flag against Lake Butler. The parcel reaches the water. No shoreline length, dock, seawall, lift or mooring is recorded against it, and the flag does not establish a navigable channel or a private beach.
The distance field of 1,936 m is the highest of the eleven, and the run it caps — 1,511, 1,553, 1,628, 1,667, 1,706, 1,746, 1,786, 1,825, 1,861, 1,895, 1,936 — climbs without a single reversal as the addresses advance. That is a clean geometric sequence and it is worth saying what it is not: it is not a measurement of shoreline, and being last in it does not make this the least waterfront parcel on the court.
A final note on what this street actually contains. The county roll carries 34 parcels on Jacob Grace Ct. Twelve are on the water, at $800,000 of land each; twenty-two are inland, at $225,000 to $250,000. Eleven of the twelve lakefront parcels are built; the twelfth, 12732, is filed vacant with no living area. That is why this registry has eleven pages for a street the county files thirty-four times, and why any count of Jacob Grace Ct addresses will disagree with any count of its houses.
What this page is not
- It is not a listing. Nothing here says the property is for sale.
- It is not an appraisal. Just value is the county's assessment figure for its own tax year.
- It does not confirm a dock, a seawall or navigable access to Lake Butler.
- It does not say whether the five and a half baths are attached to bedrooms, and no sale is filed against this parcel.
