About This Home

HUGE PRICE DROP on this downtown St.Joe home w/68Ft of RIVER FRONTAGE. 3 Bdrs, 2 Bth, Brick ranch sits on over an acre w/ windows everywhere. Entry of this home features a covered 12x15 patio that screams WELCOME.

If that is not enough the gorgeous family room boasts a 2 sided fireplace w/exposed beams for ceiling support. Just beyond is the kitchen for entertaining which includes an island & large eating area. If you chose to eat outside you can enjoy the river while sitting on the 26x14 covered back porch where wildlife is a staple. Bedrooms are equipped w/built in closets and dressers that can accommodate even the largest load of clothing, (to say there is a ton of closet storage is a understatement.) The bsmt boasts a workshop and a great place to do laundry. 2 car attached garage and gutter toppers make this home nearly maintenance free.
