Avondale's got a new love interest. This Dutch Colonial Revival with its brick and dormers is dripping with the kind of character worth swooning over. Inside, historic charm shows up everywhere you look, the kind that makes you slow down and notice the details, like original hardwood floors with inlaid details. One of this home's standout features is its two distinct living areas. A welcoming formal living room offers an elegant space for entertaining,cwhile the separate casual gathering room provides the perfect spot for movie nights or simply relaxing. But architecture is just the opening act. The real romance is out back: a deck for easy coffee mornings, a mostly-fenced yard shaded in native plantings for evenings where the dress code is casual. The front pollinator garden is a 5-star buffet for every bee in a 2-block radius. A detached garage offers additional storage or future ADU opportunity. It's here for slow mornings, long dinners, and neighbors who actually wave. Bonus: its proximity to Shoppes of Avondale's coffee, cocktails, and boutique everything, as well as the St. Johns River. Some homes you buy. This one, you will fall for. Updates: Roof 2021; upstairs AC 2023; electrical updated 2021; water heater 2021; pavers, underground drains for gutters/yard, and irrigation system late 2022/early 2023.
