About this home
The Kind of Home You're Known For — Cozy, Timeless, and Impossible to Recreate
Imagine starting your mornings on the welcoming arched front porch of 2896 Post Street, coffee in hand, as the air feels fresh and the neighborhood slowly comes to life beneath a canopy of mature trees. With its steeper roofline, cottage-style proportions, and glowing Tennessee pink marble exterior, this 1930s Riverside home offers a rare blend of warmth, character, and quiet presence — the kind of house that feels inviting before you ever step inside.
At just under 2,000 square feet, the home lives beautifully, offering a cozy, cottage-like feel without sacrificing space. Inside, large windows fill the rooms with natural light, original hardwood floors ground the space, and thoughtful details reflect the home's era and craftsmanship. The living room centers around a dramatic pink marble fireplace — a true statement piece that anchors the home and gives it a personality that new construction simply can't match.
An elegant arched opening connects the living room to the dining room, where evenings naturally gather beneath the soft glow of a vintage chandelier. Original doors with crystal knobs add subtle charm throughout the home tactile reminders of the care taken to preserve its history. This is the kind of home you're known for the one guests remember, talk about, and quietly wish was theirs.
The primary suite offers a peaceful retreat, complete with a walk-in closet and a full en-suite bath featuring beautifully preserved original tilework. Two additional bedrooms provide comfortable space for guests, creativity, or everyday living.
The kitchen honors the home's historic soul while offering modern reliability. Just off the kitchen, a classic butler's pantry provides flexible space that can be used as a breakfast nook, coffee station, or additional storage, adding to the home's thoughtful flow and everyday livability. A newer HVAC system ensures year-round comfort throughout the home.
A climate-controlled attic space adds valuable conditioned storage ideal for keeping seasonal items, keepsakes, or overflow neatly tucked away while maintaining the home's clean, uncluttered feel.
Set on a corner lot, the property offers rare breathing room in Riverside, along with side-drive access to a coveted two-car garage an uncommon convenience in this walkable, tree-lined neighborhood within an A-rated school district.
Step outside and you're moments from King Street cafés and breweries, Avondale's boutiques, and Murray Hill's Edgewood Avenue scene. With easy access to I-10, I-95, and Highway 17, downtown Jacksonville and the beaches are always within reach.
Priced at $444,900, this proudly registered Riverside Avondale Preservation home has been thoughtfully preserved with care and restraint, keeping as much of its original character intact as possible. Cozy, original, and impossible to recreate today because homes with this kind of charm, craftsmanship, and presence simply aren't built anymore.
Homes like this don't come along often.
And once you step inside, it's hard to imagine it belonging to anyone else.
