Buying
Jacksonville Florida Real Estate
by Teddi McDonald |
Are
you thinking about buying property or renting in a great place with beautiful beaches, palm
trees swaying in the breeze and mild weather year round? Then,
a Jacksonville Florida real estate rental or purchase is just what
you're looking for. Owning or renting
Jacksonville real estate will allow you to live in an area that is a year round vacation playground. Not only are the
beaches fabulous, but also the Jacksonville sports activities like golf and the
cultural resources will keep you as busy as you want to be.
Jacksonville
Florida real estate prices are reasonable ranging from as low as
$40,000 and up. In fact you can find foreclosed real estate bargains! There are many styles of
Jacksonville homes for sale to choose from whether you're thinking
about retiring there or just investing in a second home. Once
you've found a realtor and purchased the Jacksonville Florida home
of your dreams, picture yourself paddling a kayak through
sparkling waters as a pod of dolphins surfaces nearby and flocks
of pelicans soar overhead. Or perhaps you'll find yourself eating
in one of the many fine restaurants found in the area, gazing
across the river at the Jacksonville skyline while sipping your
favorite drink.
Over 20 miles of wide white sand
beaches are within a short 12-mile driving distance from the city. When
you own or rent your Jacksonville Florida real estate, your new home will become a
center for visiting the coast where you can enjoy all the exciting water sports and activities
that the area has to offer. A brief list includes, fishing, swimming,
scuba diving, water skiing, surfing, boating, and kayaking. One of the
more interesting nearby beach towns is historic Atlantic Beach, founded
over 100 years ago and located in a remarkably scenic area.
A
most unusual historic area nearby is Kingsley Plantation located on a
tiny barrier island. The plantation house is the oldest remaining in
Florida. Nearby are a number of slave cabins built of bricks fashioned
from crushed seashells. This is all set in a beautiful park with
majestic trees and scenic vistas. Another point of interest along the
beach area is a bird sanctuary located on Big Talbot Island. It’s a
nationally known center for wildlife rehabilitation, serving as many as
2,000 birds. Big and Little Talbot Islands are mostly wetland preserves
with beautiful untouched beaches and many trails. When you rent or purchase
your Jacksonville Florida real estate, you’ll live close enough to
enjoy this area often.
Downtown Jacksonville is
very scenic and the views from across the river of the downtown
skyline, enhanced by interesting modern architecture, are surprisingly
nice – especially at sunset. Once you’re living in your Jacksonville
Florida real estate rental, you’ll find that Jacksonville has all the
amenities you could want including its own zoo and many historic
buildings. If you’re a culture vulture, Jacksonville has a symphony
orchestra along with Broadway shows, theatre, dance performances and
opera. The Cummer art museum has a permanent collection of over 4,000
antiquities in particular, a collection of works by American artists as
well as old masters.
Do you like to shop til you
drop? There are great boutiques, expansive malls, an outlet center
(includes such stores as Polo, Hilfinger, Guess – over 80 to choose
from!), art galleries and much more. Perhaps you like to eat out.
You’ll find plenty of restaurants with lots of seafood, Italian,
American (steaks and prime rib) as well as Continental and Cajun. The
bottom line is, purchasing or renting Jacksonville Florida real estate can bring
you a whole new life style!
