Completely renovated and thoughtfully expanded, this charming 1942 cottage now lives like a brand new home with 4 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms on a sprawling 0.76 acre lot.

With no HOA, room to roam, and county zoning, this property is a rare find for homeowners and investors alike. Move in ready and waiting for you, so schedule your showing today!

What to check on this one

  • Verify roof age and get 4-point inspection—1942 home may need wind-mitigation report for insurance.
  • Check flood zone designation and obtain elevation certificate if in AE/VE zone.
  • Inspect plumbing materials—homes this old often have cast-iron or polybutylene requiring replacement.
  • Confirm renovation permits pulled and final inspections passed with Duval County.
  • Review septic system documentation if property is on septic; well history if applicable.

Flagged from the listing itself — not an inspection, and no substitute for one. Bring these to the showing.
