About This Home

Charming River Ridge home on an oversized lot with a guest apartment! Just a short walk to the levee walking path and across the highway from John Curtis and St. Matthew Schools. This charming 1950s all brick home sits on an 100x130 lot filled with lush landscaping, including a majestic live oak, colorful crepe myrtles, butterfly and bird loving bushes, and a fruiting Meyer lemon tree. A 420 sqft apartment with a full kitchen, living room, bedroom, bath, and storage offers a private entrance and the option to lock it off from the main home, making it great for guests, live in relatives or rental income. The main house blends mid-century charm with modern big system updates completed in 2021 including new roofs on the main home and three additional buildings, fresh interior paint, Window World windows, new main HVAC system, storm doors, storm shutters, gutters with leaf guard, updated fencing & iron gates, enhanced landscaping, and a wired Brinks alarm system. Rear yard access leads to three storage buildings with electrical capabilities, one of which is a full-sized garage with a half bath. With an assumable flood policy of just $785/year, abundant storage, multiple entertaining spaces, and big-ticket system updates already complete, this home is a rare find offering both character and convenience in a prime River Ridge location.
