About this home
Welcome to 1885 River Oaks, a rare 1.04-acre property graced with stunning mature oak trees and views of the Saint Johns River. Nestled among million-dollar homes, this brick residence offers both timeless construction and an incredible setting. This well-maintained home features 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, with thoughtful upgrades over the years: Bosch Water-Source Heat Pump System (2021): Unlike traditional HVAC systems that rely on outside air, this energy-efficient system uses well water to cool the coils. This method provides consistent, reliable climate control while lowering energy costs. Roof (2018) and all windows/doors replaced (2020) for added peace of mind.
Water heater (2015) and a central vacuum system for everyday convenience that still works really well.
Inside, you'll find solid wood kitchen cabinetry, a wood-burning fireplace with an integrated blower that circulates warm air throughout the room, and a primary bath complete with a hot tub. The detached 24x18 garage is fully insulated and finished, with attic storage. With plumbing and electrical already in place, it could easily be converted into an in-law suite, office, or workshop. The main home also offers attic storage space. Just outside, you'll also find a brick oven, great for outdoor cooking and entertaining under the shade of the oaks.
While the home has strong bones and key updates already completed, it offers the perfect canvas for personalization. Cosmetic updates such as flooring, countertops, and wallpaper removal can transform this solid brick home into a showpiece.
The expansive lot provides plenty of room for RVs, boats, and outdoor recreation, making it a true gem for those who value space, privacy, and location.
