Talk about a cottage! This cottage, nestled in a perfect location in Jacksonville for home, shopping, and work, has been remodeled with attention to detail. The original hardwoods were restored throughout the living room, dining room, hall, and bedrooms. Tile has been installed in the kitchen and bathroom. From new cabinets, a lovely tile back splash, and granite counters in the kitchen to a completely re-done bathroom with tile floor, tile bath surround, and new cabinetry and plumbing fixtures, , this home is waiting for owners to live where they love. Adorable barn doors hide what's behind in two closets including the master! A new HVAC, new appliances, freshly painted, new/ refinished flooring, new landscaping, and more is just perfect for the first time home buyer, investor, or retiree who is ready to settle down without having to do the fixes many homes may require.

NC
Neighborhood Commercial District
The NC district is established and intended to accommodate smallscale, low-intensity, and convenience retail and service uses that provide goods and services serving the residents of the immediately surrounding neighborhood (e.g., personal service uses, small restaurants, and limited retail). Development in the district should not include uses of a size that is out of scale with a residential neighborhood, or that attracts traffic from outside the surrounding neighborhood. Individual nonresidential uses shall not exceed 10000 sq ft (including any outdoor use area). Live work units arranged above nonresidential units are encouraged. The district is subject to standards intended to ensure development is consistent with the neighborhood scale and compatible with surrounding uses.
