Welcome to your own private retreat in the heart of Lake Mandarin! Lovingly maintained by the same family for many years, this beautifully cared-for patio home offers the perfect combination of comfort, flexibility, and one of Jacksonville's most desirable locations. As you arrive, you'll immediately notice the approximately 20-foot side easement, creating additional green space, enhanced privacy, and a peaceful setting that's perfect for bird watching, gardening, or simply enjoying nature right outside your door. Step inside to a welcoming dining room where sliding glass doors fill the space with natural light and create a seamless connection to the outdoor living area. The adjoining kitchen is thoughtfully designed, complete with a large pantry and a view of the screened lanai, making outdoor entertaining easy whether you're serving dinner, hosting family gatherings, or enjoying weekend cookouts. The spacious family room features brand-new carpet and overlooks the expansive screened lanai, complete with a tranquil water feature and additional storage. Just beyond is one of the home's most distinctive features--a light-filled atrium that creates a peaceful retreat unlike anything you'll find in most homes. Imagine starting your mornings with coffee surrounded by lush plants, creating a reading nook, practicing yoga, designing a home office, or simply enjoying a quiet place to unwind. The private owner's suite offers a generous walk-in closet, ensuite bath, and the added convenience of a nearby wet bar, creating a comfortable and relaxing retreat. On the opposite side of the home, you'll find a guest bedroom, full bathroom, linen closet, garage access, and an additional flex room that can easily serve as a den, home office, hobby room, fitness space, or even a third bedroom to fit your lifestyle. Two Car garage Access with built in work bench shelving and washer dryer connection. Located in the established Lake Mandarin community, residents enjoy access to neighborhood lakes and a community park while benefiting from the quiet atmosphere of one of Mandarin's most established neighborhoods. The community includes 312 homes with maintained lakes and a neighborhood park available to residents. Conveniently located just minutes from Interstate 295, this home places you close to everything that makes Mandarin so desirable--including shopping, restaurants, parks, healthcare, and everyday conveniences--while still offering the peaceful charm of an established residential neighborhood. Families will appreciate the home's zoning for Crown Point Elementary School, Mandarin Middle School, and Mandarin High School (buyer should verify school assignments with Duval County Public Schools). Some homes simply check the boxes. This one offers something more--a peaceful place to slow down, relax, and truly feel at home.
