Find home where the land meets the river, and the river leads to the ocean. This unique estate on almost an acre of Trout River waterfront is an exceptional value and offers the most reasonably priced dockable property in North Florida. Completely rebuilt in 2015, the stunning, craftsman-style 4 bedroom, 4 bath home boasts Old Florida views from every window, over 1500 square feet of porch space, gourmet kitchen, garage for 6 cars and covered parking for 4 more cars/boats. A hobbyist's dream!. The art is in the details, and the home's story is noteworthy. Only the slab and ground floor concrete structure was maintained from the original 1999 build, and the first floor is over 7' above flood level. The ground floor serves as one of the two garages, covered parking, storage area and wine cellar. With stunning views from every window and porch of the first and second floors, the first floor is home to the gourmet kitchen with an oversized island and counter seating, dining room, grand living room, foyer, laundry area and one of the two master suites. There’s also another two car garage. The second floor en-suite master boasts vaulted ceilings with lovely architectural features. The other two en-suite bedrooms, as well as another living room, are also on the second floor. Trout River is a winding tributary to the St. Johns River leading to the Atlantic Ocean, just 20 minutes by boat. The City boat launch is less than a mile away. Any avid fisherman knows the area well, although none will share their secrets. The spot is just too good. This estate was built with the nature lover in mind; someone who wants to enjoy the sunrise and sunset (and everything in between) over endless views of river, marsh and tree canopy; the type of person not to be bothered with deed restrictions and an HOA; someone with true appreciation for Salt Life and the hobbyist lifestyle.
