No flood insurance needed here! This property is a rare combination of a home set nearly 10 ft. above the 100-yr flood plain, located next to good river depths, and topped off with incredible views of the St Johns River!

River frontage of 82′ has complete concrete bulkhead. Double-slip boathouse with lift and storage area for fishing tackle adjoins a large river deck with fish-cleaning station and running water. Depth of water off dock is about 15 ft, accommodating boats requiring deeper drafts.

The 2BR/2BA Palm Harbor quality home has been well-maintained and features views of the river from most of the many windows and sliding doors. Large wrap-around deck provides ample opportunity for outdoor living. Updated kitchen with dining nook overlooks river and boasts custom wood cabinets, a pantry with rollout shelves, designer stainless appliances, tile backsplash and floor, recessed lighting, and two sinks. Both extra-large bedrooms have walk-in closets. The MBR suite has double sinks and plenty of room for king bed. The inside utility room contains a washer, dryer, upright freezer, and storage.

An artesian well serves the house, as well as a water-to-air heat pump which heats and cools, saving utility dollars. The septic tank has been serviced regularly. The house has a long-lasting steel roof, as does the 12′ X 20′ air-conditioned and insulated shed with a walk-in wine cellar. House tie-downs were brought up to current code in 2007. Termite and heat pump service policies are paid and are transferrable. Satellite dish, wire for cable, and broadband internet is available.

Keep your lawn green with automatic watering system drawing from the river. A circular drive makes for easy access and parking. This shady lot has large oak trees and is located at end of dead-end street in quiet neighborhood. Lot is last one in community and adjoins a large 4-acre property.
