About this home
Welcome to one of Ortega Forest's most special offerings -- and one of Jacksonville's most compelling opportunities.
Nestled on a beautifully private, park-like 0.65-acre lot, this 2,908sf home delivers the kind of space, serenity, and flexibility that's nearly impossible to find in Jacksonville today. Listed at $499,000, and that price includes completed foundation work and a full sewer connection conversion from the existing septic system. This property is priced well below its full potential before you ever pick up a paintbrush.
With comparable renovated homes in Ortega Forest supporting values at $265 per square foot on the main living space, and the 748 sf detached ADU adding further value at $125 per square foot, a fully renovated finished product here would support a value of $865,000. This is the rare opportunity where the numbers make sense before cosmetic renovations even begin. Built in 1954 and full of timeless character, the interior features gorgeous red oak hardwood floors throughout much of the home, custom cabinetry in the kitchen, and a spacious Florida room that opens to breathtaking private backyard views. Three guest bedrooms share a classic hall bath, while the owner's suite offers a renovated bathroom and a generous walk-in closet. Towering trees, a lush park-like setting, and room for a future pool round out a property with as much outdoor appeal as indoor potential.
Then there's the bonus that sets this property truly apart: a 748 square foot detached building at the rear of the lot, already equipped with heating, cooling, and water. Add a bathroom and it becomes a private apartment, home office, art studio, workout facility, or income-producing rental suite -- a rare added dimension that most properties in this price range simply can't offer.
Ortega Forest is known for its tree-lined streets, peaceful atmosphere, and strong sense of community, and this property sits right in the heart of it all. John Stockton Elementary is steps away, downtown Jacksonville is 10 minutes out, and the restaurants and shops of Avondale and Riverside are right around the corner.
Foundation done. Sewer connected. Garage, carport, storage shed, and a near-turnkey ADU already on site. Nearly $840,000 in potential waiting on the other side. All it needs is you....
