Property Description

Designed and built by the original owner in 1975, this one-of-a-kind home offers exceptional quality and craftsmanship throughout. Tucked away on a private one-third-acre lot in a serene neighborhood of just 22 homes, this property is perfect for those seeking peace, privacy, and a close connection to nature. Despite the tranquil setting, the home is conveniently located near San Marco, downtown Jacksonville, and two major hospitals. Constructed with Norwegian masonry brick and copper wiring, the home features a distinctive and thoughtfully designed floor plan. Inside, you'll find three spacious bedrooms and two full bathrooms, with an abundance of natural light streaming through large windows that frame views of mature landscaping and four beautiful oak trees. Storage is plentiful, with two double closets in each bedroom, a large coat closet, a spacious hall closet, a utility closet, and an exterior storage room. The kitchen includes custom cabinetry that could be restored to its original charm, and all appliances are in working order and less than ten years old. While interior updates such as new flooring, fresh paint, and bathroom renovations would enhance the space, many major systems have already been taken care of. The roof was replaced in 2018 with a high wind-mitigation GAF Seal-A-Ridge system, the HVAC was installed in 2017, the water heater was replaced in 2023, and the septic tank and drain field were updated around 2014. Surrounded by native plants and nestled among other custom homes on large lots, this rare property offers a unique opportunity to own a well-built home with timeless character in a truly special neighborhood. Experience the luxury of living near the St John's River with no HOA!
