Backed up to a peaceful preserve and loaded with upgrades, this Creekside home has that ''you'll know it when you see it'' feel. With 3 bdrms plus a flex space AND the cutest pocket office (perfect for working from home or a quiet homework spot), + 2 baths, this layout just makes sense. You'll find wood-look tile throughout the main living areas, crown molding, & fresh interior paint that gives everything a clean, updated feel. The kitchen is a standout offering granite countertops, white shaker cabinets, subway tile backsplash, under-cabinet lighting, pendant lights, stainless KitchenAid appliances... and yes, preserve views right from your sink! The owner's suite feels like a true retreat w/a tray ceiling, spa-like bath, garden soaking tub, and a HUGE walk-in closet. Out back, the covered paver lanai (with gas line and ceiling fan) overlooks a fully fenced yard & tranquil preserve setting w/plenty of room to add a pool! Widened paver driveway, fresh landscaping, and great curb appeal Right across the street is a great little open park, and you're just a short walk to the neighborhood amenity center--such an easy, convenient spot to be! Located in sought-after Creekside with top-rated St. Johns County schools and perfectly located between US-1 & I-95 for easy access to both Jacksonville and St. Augustine ... this one isn't just a house, it's the one! A rare gem at a rare price!
