A Rare Find in Coastal Oaks: Build the Custom Home You Want in a Built-Out Nocatee Neighborhood
By Mollie Younger October 2, 2026 6 min read
48 Marco Island Way is a cleared, buildable lot in Coastal Oaks, a completely built-out Nocatee village. Buildable lots here are rare, and you choose your own custom builder and design.
Here is the thing: 48 Marco Island Way is not a house for sale. It is a cleared, buildable lot in Coastal Oaks, one of the established villages at Nocatee in Ponte Vedra, Florida 32081. And because Coastal Oaks is completely built out, a buildable lot here is genuinely rare. If you have been waiting to build the exact home you want without leaving Nocatee, this is the conversation to have.
Why a buildable lot in a built-out neighborhood matters
Most of the building in Nocatee today happens in newer villages with active phases. Coastal Oaks is different. The neighborhood is completely built out, which means the streets are finished, the homes are in, the landscaping has grown in, and the community is settled. A cleared lot in the middle of all that is the rare exception, not the rule. You get an established neighborhood and the chance to put a brand-new home on it.
The original home at 48 Marco Island Way
These photos show the original home that previously stood at 48 Marco Island Way. That home has since been removed, and the lot is now cleared and ready to build. What you would be buying today is a clean buildable site in a completely settled neighborhood, not an aging house to renovate.
You choose the builder, and there is an approved design to tour
With this lot, you are not locked into one builder's standard lineup. You get to choose your own custom builder, and Providence Builders is an approved option in Coastal Oaks. There is also an approved Key West-style home design, the Ellaville elevation, and you can tour it in person to see the finished product before you commit to anything.
Life in Coastal Oaks
Coastal Oaks sits inside Nocatee, so the master-planned community surrounds you: the parks, the pools, the events, the whole Nocatee lifestyle. The village itself has a community park and a clubhouse, and the neighborhood feels established rather than under construction. You trade the ocean for a short drive to the beach, which is the honest tradeoff of Nocatee life, and you keep the everyday conveniences of Ponte Vedra close.

Mollie says
I evaluate a home like an investor, I navigate the deal like a broker with more than 24 years of experience, and I understand the move like a mother who relocated her own family. A rare lot in a built-out neighborhood is exactly the kind of project I love. Let's talk about what you want to build.
