$172/sqft asking, vs a $133/sqft median across 461 closed sales in 32254 over the last 12 months — 29% above the area's closed prices. Condition and lot vary; that's what a showing is for.
This home has been well cared for & thoughtfully updated. The oversized, unattached garage is perfect for a workshop, general storage or vehicle parking. Large, private, shaded back yard & no HOA.
What to check on this one
- Verify roof age and get 4-point inspection—1951 home likely near insurance limits.
- Confirm flood zone via FEMA map; elevation certificate needed if AE/VE.
- Check plumbing material (polybutylene/cast-iron); may require replacement.
- Inspect foundation, foundation cracks, settling—75-year-old home priority.
- Verify HVAC age and service history; cooling critical in Northeast Florida.
- Confirm all 'renovations' permitted and inspected; unpermitted work kills insurability.
Flagged from the listing itself — not an inspection, and no substitute for one. Bring these to the showing.
