2005 Herschel ST

A one of a kind condominium with big-city vibes! This 1,600 sqft condo in Riverside's historic Aberdeen building offers urban living blocks from the St. Johns River. The front door of the Aberdeen opens into a common foyer leading to each of the four units. Apartment 1 is behind the bright, welcoming yellow door of this ground floor corner unit. Enter into a bright living space where cafe shutters were added to every room. The large living room has a gas fireplace. Glass doors lead to a front porch with a wonderful street view. The second bedroom and bathroom at the front of the condo were recently painted. The rich, century old hardwood flooring in those rooms flow throughout most of the house. Pocket doors divide the living room from a large formal dining room that is a perfect spot for entertaining. The galley kitchen is spacious and features fresh paint, granite countertops and a new refrigerator and microwave. A small laundry sits just off the kitchen and includes a new washing machine. An office separates the dining room from the master bedroom and bathroom. The condo comes with one dedicated parking space behind the unit. Ample on-street parking out front for guests. Condo fees include yard service, pest control, exterior insurance and maintenance. Designed by legendary architect Roy Benjamin, who also designed the Florida Theatre, the building is Mediterranean style with a flat roof. It has been meticulously restored to its former glory. Riverside, located off I-95 just west of Downtown, is one of Jacksonville's most beautiful and historic neighborhoods. The apartment is steps from unique restaurants and shops. Memorial Park, which overlooks the St. Johns River, is two blocks away. This condo is a must see!
