An extraordinary expression of modern riverfront living, this custom estate commands 102 feet along the St. Johns River on nearly three-quarters of an acre. Privately positioned at the end of a tree-lined cul-de-sac, the residence offers something exceptionally rare for this established riverfront setting: a custom home less than two years old, combining the beauty and character of a coveted St. Johns River location with the design, finishes and conveniences of nearly new construction. Inside, dramatic ceiling heights and expansive walls of glass and beautifully frame the dramatic river view. Wide-plank white oak floors bring warmth throughout, while bespoke millwork, thoughtfully selected stone, designer lighting and elevated finishes create a sophisticated aesthetic that feels both current and enduring. At the center of the home, the chef's kitchen is as beautiful as it is functional, with Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, custom cabinetry and generous marble surfaces. Designed to flow effortlessly into the main living and entertaining spaces, it takes full advantage of the remarkable waterfront setting. The main-level primary suite offers a private haven overlooking the river, complete with a beautifully appointed spa bath and heated floors. A separate first-floor guest suite provides exceptional privacy, while additional bedrooms upstairs offer gracious accommodations for family and guests. Beyond the interiors, the home opens to a spectacular outdoor living environment designed around life on the water. A covered terrace with fireplace and fully equipped summer kitchen overlooks the saltwater pool and integrated spa, creating an exceptional setting from morning coffee through sunset gatherings. Two powered storage buildings provide beautifully practical space for waterfront, recreational and household essentials, while a Tesla charger and whole-home alarm system add modern convenience and peace of mind. At the river's edge, the custom Weardeck dock was designed for years of low-maintenance enjoyment and is exceptionally equipped for the boating lifestyle. Accommodations for a boat up to 39 feet are complemented by dedicated Jet Ski lifts, a kayak launch, dock box and fish-cleaning station. A waterfront swing creates its own destination, a quiet place to take in the breeze, watch boats pass and enjoy the extraordinary sunsets over the St. Johns. Private, polished and distinctly Jacksonville, this is riverfront living at its most refined, a rare opportunity to own an almost-new custom residence in one of the area's most established waterfront settings.

Miramar, located between San Marco and Avondale, is a residential and historic Jacksonville neighborhood with riverfront edges and a canopy of mature oaks. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along the Park Street corridor near the Fuller Warren Bridge, where small storefronts, studios, and sidewalk patios set a low-key, walkable rhythm. Brick and stucco homes, Mediterranean Revival details, and tidy bungalows give the streets a cohesive, early-20th-century feel. Along the St. Johns River, the Riverwalk and nearby parks frame morning runs and sunset views. Cultural touchstones such as the Cummer Museum of Art & Gardens, the historic San Marco Theatre, and the Florida Theatre anchor nights out beyond the quiet blocks.

Step outside to your covered back deck, where evenings are spent by the outdoor fireplace, cooking in the fully equipped summer kitchen, or watching the sunset from the saltwater pool and integrated hot tub. The custom boat dock is built for both leisure and adventure, with a kayak launch and space for a 39-foot boat, making river days effortless and memorable. Every detail- every texture, fixture, and finish- was hand-selected to create moments of beauty and serenity in every room. This home isn't just a place to live; it's a feeling- a retreat that wraps you in comfort the moment you walk through the door.
