Description
This beautiful Circa 1923 Craftsman Style home retains many original features. Coffered ceilings in the living and dining rooms, hardwood floors and trim throughout, two sets of double French doors, original windows and all doors, fireplace with Craftsman style mantle, sun porch and sleeping porch. The house sits on a large corner lot next to a brick road and the front porch offers an amazing view of the majestic St Johns River.
