Property Description
**OPEN HOUSE SAT. 1/18 1 pm - 4 PM.** Step into timeless elegance with this fully renovated Queen Anne home in the heart of Avondale. Boasting 3 bedrooms, an office, and 2.5 baths, this historic treasure blends classic charm with modern luxury. The inviting kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring quartz countertops, a copper farmhouse sink, stainless steel appliances, a gas range, and both conventional and convection ovens. A walk-in pantry and ample cabinet storage ensure practicality meets style. Original wood floors flow throughout, while solid wood pocket doors on the first floor preserve the home's historic character. The primary suite offers a spa-like retreat with a fully renovated bath, complete with a spacious walk-in shower and dual vanity. The guest bath has also been thoughtfully renovated, retaining the charm of the original clawfoot tub. An enclosed unfinished second-floor balcony provides endless possibilities—transform it into a home gym, an extra bedroom, or an additional living space. The third floor is a versatile bonus room with a charming view of the river from the oval window, perfect for a playroom, office, or creative studio. Outdoor living shines with a resurfaced saltwater pool (completed in 2022), offering the perfect space for relaxation and entertainment. Additional modern upgrades include a new tankless water heater and a water softener (a must for our hard water). There is more than enough parking space with the two-car garage with automatic opener, covered carport, and street parking. Living in historic Avondale offers a vibrant lifestyle with tree-lined streets, boutique shops, local dining, and cultural attractionsall just steps away. Fun fact: This home is listed in Wayne Wood's book: "Jacksonville's Architectural Heritage: Landmarks for the Future". Don't miss the chance to own this beautifully restored piece of history.
