Overview

Description

SEE VIDEO. The canvas to develop your riverfront dream home on a historic piece of Old Florida. Reside in a segment of William Bartram's 500 acre tract where Bartram attempted to operate a rice farm before abandoning the settlement in 1766. The area would later be part of a 1,000 acre land grant to Captain William Rainsford in 1768, becoming part of many settlements that would evolve along Six Mile Creek. Today,the area represents an example of pastoral Florida charm progressing into an expanding suburban corridor. This 1 acre parcel is your point of departure to the St. Johns River with 100' of SE waterfront exposure. Encompassing 31 lots, Florence Cove is an enclave canopied by live oaks & roaming with peacocks. The 400'+ deep lot offers an area to construct a residence that balances a natural & private location. No HOA. Building setbacks: 25' front; 8' side; 10' back. See MLS#2097195 for possible home build. Mobile home removed 2019. Old septic system removed & well capped 7/2024
