The Palms at Nocatee North is part of Nocatee, the large planned community in northeastern St. Johns County and southern Duval County, inland from Ponte Vedra Beach and west of the Intracoastal Waterway. The northern villages of Nocatee sit near Valley Ridge Boulevard and US 1, with preserved woodlands, trails and ponds threaded between residential streets. The Palms at Nocatee North is a townhouse-style enclave within that setting, built in the community's distinctive palm-lined, low-country style rather than as detached suburban lots. Public schools serving the area are part of St. Johns County School District, and Nocatee's town center, parks and water amenities are shared across its villages. Beaches and Jacksonville's Southside employment centers are both reachable by car. See current Palms at Nocatee North homes below.
