Peaceful Old Florida-style waterfront retreat on the Nassau River in Jacksonville's Black Hammock Island. Set on 1.3 acres with approximately 200 feet of river frontage, this single-story home offers 2,943 square feet of living space and expansive water views across the river toward Amelia Island. A durable metal roof and relaxed Southern character blend seamlessly with modern comforts in a private, low-density setting. Outdoor living takes center stage with a screen-enclosed back porch overlooking the paver pool, firepit, and river beyond—an inviting setting for relaxing, entertaining, and enjoying the spectacular waterfront surroundings year-round. A detached, air-conditioned garage offers additional storage and workshop space and a flowing well add to the property's private, self-sufficient character. The open floor plan flows from a formal dining area into a spacious gathering room anchored by a wood burning fireplace and built-in shelving. The well-appointed kitchen features a large island, walk-in pantry, and six-burner gas cooktop, making it equally suited to everyday living and entertaining. Four bedrooms and 2.5 baths provide comfortable accommodations for family and guests. A classic Florida waterfront home offering a rare combination of timeless character, expansive river frontage, and practical modern living—all in a peaceful island setting.
