Description
Discover the perfect blend of peaceful rural living and convenient suburban amenities in this charming ranch style, 3 bedroom, 2 bath home. Imagine relaxing on the welcoming 24' covered front porch and enjoying the freedom of a spacious 0.75-acre property without HOA restrictions.
This property is a dream for anyone who loves the outdoors, offering covered parking for your boat - no need to lower those fishing poles! - as well as covered RV parking. You'll find plenty of storage space with a 2-car attached garage, a detached garage with 30 amp service, a significant 15' high metal carport (24x46) also equipped with 30 amp service, and a fully fenced backyard with a convenient wide gate on the side yard.
Inside, you'll appreciate the open floor plan, cleverly defined by a half wall between the kitchen and living room. Enjoy casual meals in the eat-in kitchen and host gatherings in the formal dining room. The glass-enclosed Florida Room provides versatile space for a home office, playroom, or a peaceful retreat. Just off the Florida Room, an open patio invites you to grill out and/or cultivate your favorite plants.
The current homeowner has taken exceptional care of this home, ensuring it's move-in ready with numerous updates. These include new wood block countertops, stainless steel kitchen appliances, double-insulated windows, and a new roof installed in 2018. Recent upgrades in 2025 feature exterior vinyl siding on the sides and rear, an updated HVAC system with an Alexa thermostat, and a refreshed hall bathroom shower. The septic system was pumped out in 2024. Notably, the current owner benefits from approximately $350 in savings on homeowners insurance due to installed hurricane clips.
Enjoy the convenience of being within walking distance to Tom Marshall Park, a city park offering a playground, batting cages, covered picnic tables, baseball and basketball courts, and a concession stand. For young baseball enthusiasts, the Northside Athletic Association has sign ups for their leagues at the park.
This location offers a quick commute to Mayport Naval Base and provides easy access to Jacksonville International Airport, the Amazon warehouse, VA Hospital, and UF North Hospital.
This home truly offers a unique blend of comfortable living and outdoor convenience.

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageSince my grandson started here K-3rd, I have nothing but great things to say. Everyone knows him and the family. Everything possible has been done to help him with his disabilities. Speech, learning, ADHD & recently Autism spectrum. Always informed on progress, which has come a along way. He loves this school and all the teachers, staff, including the principal. We will be moving out of state and pray he gets into another great school!Parent Review1y ago - First Coast High School

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am personally a student here, and I can tell you that oceanway is not the best. They have the smallest hallways, they make you run around the entire school even if 2+ of your classes are in the same area, the school is disgusting and dirty, constant fights break out, and its overall horrible. If your apart of LGBTQ+, or at least your child is, this is not the school. Im Transmasc and im constantly bullied because of it, and its not just the students either. Its also the teachers. They dont care about you being comfortable. They dont care about your preferences. You do what they want. They want your respect but yet they give none back. To the parents who sit there and "well the teachers and students are mean because those children are horrible", Most of them are not. I do what im supposed to, I keep quiet and yet I still get picked on or told off. The people at the front office wont do anything about it either unless its a fight, which leads no time for other reports. There is accepting and great teachers here, but theyre wasting their time at this school. They need to go to a better school to teach, because oceanway is absolutely not worth it. Again, this school claims its LGBTQ+ friendly, but its really not except for a small group of teachers.Student Review3y ago
