A hidden gem in the heart of Jacksonville. Beautifully maintained & renovated 3 bedroom 2 bath home, huge deck with above ground pool to help cool off during the hot summer days. A truly unique home with a full basement, half of it has been turned into a family room and Den. Mill Creek is at the back of the property so there is plenty of wildlife, such as Heron, Deer and Pelicans just to name a few.

    "It’s shocking seeing rent become so high in certain neighborhoods in Jacksonville. I have never in a million years thought I’d see duplexes in New River going for $1100! And Town Center apartments being over $1300 a month! That is ridiculous. Rentals in that area were between 550-700. That is so sad."

    "It’s mind blowing to see Jacksonville’s rent prices skyrocket. Duplexes surrounding the New River neighborhood use to be 595-700 a month and now they are in the high 900’s and 1,000’s. That is so sad. I never thought I’d see the day where rentals on Starling St and York St and other streets are 1000-1200. That is RIDICULOUS for that area."

I have never had any issues living here and it has been a very safe environment so far from the time that I have lived here. I am very happy with everything except the roads which are bumpy and some potholes. These items get taken care of throughout the year."
