This is a very rare opportunity to own your ''Tropical Paradise'' as quoted by author Harriet Beecher Stowe as she set her eyes upon Mandarin. This property truly is the last of its kind, here in Mandarin, as this home sits real pretty on three gorgeous acres of PURE SOUTHERN CHARM directly in the HEART of Jacksonville. This custom built, two story, 5 bedroom (PLUS Bonus Room), 5 bath is as unique as it gets. The yard offers an abundance of shade provided by massive live oaks that exude southern living all day long. Enjoy those sunny days basking poolside or cooling off in your very own, private inground pool. This home has SO many nooks and crannies for storage and plenty of covered spaces to park ALL of your toys away and out of the elements. Be the ONE to say you live on the greenerside of the grass as this lush lawn truly is greener  the entire property is lined with a brilliantly laid out sprinkler system throughout. Enjoy the convenience and peace of your very own half acre, fully stocked, fishing pond, which attracts all kinds of wildlife ALL YEAR ROUND. This is a MUST SEE PROPERTY for those seeking an idyllic place to call HOME surrounded by Big City Life. There are SO many features to see plus SO much more. You will soon discover that this house is the epitome of HOME SWEET HOME. This is SOUTHERN LIVING at its finest...
