Built in 1927
Step back in time and embrace the elegance of this meticulously preserved, truly iconic and rare 1927 Tudor Revival Home. Nestled in the coveted Historic Avondale district, this three-story masterpiece, with an additional basement, was envisioned by the renowned architect Mellon Greeley--a true icon of Jacksonville's architectural legacy. Greeley's contributions include notable structures like Government House in St. Augustine, the Church of the Good Shepherd, and St. Luke's Hospital in Jacksonville. This residence, a testament to traditional style architecture, features a grand entry that sets the tone for the grandeur within. A detached two-car garage offers extra space above for a potential garage apartment. Located on Avondale Circle, one of the most esteemed streets in the district, this property stands as an architectural gem, ideal for a growing family or a couple who revels in entertaining. The allure of this home lies in its unattainable original craftsmanship and detail, boasting four bespoke fireplaces and original refinished hardwood floors that echo tales of the past. Sunlight gracefully bathes each room through remanufactured windows, casting a warm glow that speaks of nostalgia. With a grand formal dining room, a library, an office, and a family room adorned with a fireplace and exposed beams, the scale and flow of this residence are truly remarkable. Two staircases lead to five bedrooms and four updated bathrooms, offering ample storage throughout. The culinary dream of a gourmet kitchen seamlessly blends vintage allure with modern convenience. The outdoors beckon with a covered patio, fragrant blooms, lush greenery, and mature trees, creating a haven of serenity for each season. Enjoy the convenience of walking to dining and shops, swinging under giant oaks, and indulging in lawn games at the nearby circle park. Evening strolls or dog walks to riverfront pocket parks (Challen and Edgewood) and riverside breezes offer a tranquil retreat. Tree-lined streets, parks, and playgrounds surround the property, with popular Avondale shops and restaurants within walking distance. Embrace a slower pace of life, riding bikes, and walking, with the quaint riverfront just steps away. Conveniently located near The Shoppes of Avondale, Boone Park, St. Vincent Hospital, Brooklyn, Downtown, and accessible via I-95 and I-10, this property invites you to experience the best of historic charm and modern convenience. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of the past, while revealing the comfort of today. Experience the very best, the art of living in a home that is both time capsule and a sanctuary, where history and modern living converge. Come discover the pleasure of living in one of the best Streets in Historic Avondale, and an amazing place to call Home.
