You'll delight in a convenient location which is both tucked away behind the golf course yet within 2 miles of Wal-Mart, the Jacksonville Mall, theaters, and restaurants - you'll be home while your co-workers are still driving! A good neighborhood for many years, the Country Club area homes are generally very well maintained, and have good neighbors who like the sellers, are business people, professionals, or physicians. By the way, just visible behind the Mercedes and Sequoia are the double gates for drive through passage to the back yard.

A classic ranch design featuring a delightful front porch - no fumbling for keys in the rain! What's more, the comfortable porch swing is very nice for reading the paper with a cup of coffee in the morning.

Minimum maintenance, vinyl cladding on the eaves along with classic brick means less upkeep. Barely visible behind the carport light is a pull down staircase which provides easy access to the attic space which complements the similar staircase in the hallway.

The bright yellow hues provides a colorful highlight to a generously sized carport. While it dwarfs the Ferrari, it's ideal for SUVs, and the side gate is a straight shot into the workshop. Notice how the high quality hurricane strength composite vinyl/aluminum posts match those on the front porch, but best of all, the huge shaded area helps keep the home cool in summer hence less load on the air conditioner.

Summer entertaining at it's best, a cool lemonade with friends while grilling a steak - this is a very nice way to enjoy this comfortable home.

A late in the day shot facing North, the setting sun is shaded by the huge back porch. Outdoor living when you want it, that perfect place for a hammock . . . this is what life's about - comfort without breaking the bank!

What's Rowdy doing in this photo? He's a camera hound! The completely fenced backyard keeps Rowdy from wandering. Graced by clear Carolina skies, the nice level yard is perfect for family activities and has plenty of potential for those with a green thumb!

Equipped with carriage lamps on each side of the steel double doors (equipped with ball bearing hinges), there are also two high intensity lamps on the corners of the building for when more light is needed (like when a badminton game goes into dark). The double wide concrete sidewalk means a casual stroll from shop to home.

Shaded by four oak trees, the spacious back yard has a two-story building suitable as a workshop downstairs as well as an office upstairs (or as a very comfortable mother-in-law's suite). Complete with full bath, as well as an efficient (and quiet) Trane heat pump . . . no expense has been spared! There's even a nice concrete pad that's perfect for patio furniture under a large oak tree (for those lazy summer evenings with friends).

A cathedral ceiling front porch (clad in low maintenance vinyl - which means no painting) has an airy spacious feeling - and the beautiful leaded windows are simply gorgeous when the porch light is lit to welcome evening guests.

Architectural design provides the eye with several surfaces, while the giant screen television is perfectly proportioned to the room. Notice the classy recessed lighting.

As you enter the home, the comfortable floor plan - designed for contemporary living - draws the eyes to the multiple surfaces . . . like those in magazines like Architectural Digest. This is gracious living at it's Carolina best! Presently owned by the publisher of modelSPORT Magazine, and owner of Genesis Hobby Distributor, the museum-quality Jenny model aircraft (a replica of one that accompanied Black Jack Pershing to war with Mexico) isn't part of the deal!

Facing south in this view of the kitchen, notice the elegant Moen faucets, the nifty instant hot water for tea, contemporary solid surface Corian countertops - all complemented by top of the line Armstrong flooring for easy clean ups of life's inevitable spills. Recessed lighting, variable speed remote control fans, and a handy place for making a sandwich. Not immediately apparent is how easily you can keep an eye on the TV news while doing dishes - ugh! While the sun blows out the iris in this photo, the double French doors actually have blinds between the glass panes! By the way, the windows in this home are vinyl double pane for superb insulating value (and keeping life's noises away). Plus there's no painting - ever!

Corian countertops, state of the art kitchen design with full pantry, wine rack, top of the line Amana refrigerator, Jenn-Aire solid surface stove, as well as beautiful window trims which harkens back to a time when craftsmen took pride in their work. The open floor design is ideal for entertaining, a quick lunch at the counter, or a coffee in the morning.
