5538 Anchor Ln
Set along a private road, this full-brick 1941 home offers the privacy, character, and flexibility that are increasingly difficult to find in Jacksonville. It is well suited for buyers who appreciate a quieter setting, generous parking, additional living space, and the opportunity to personalize a home with timeless charm. The main residence features four bedrooms and two bathrooms, while the detached one-bedroom, one-bath suite provides flexible space for guests, extended household members, a private office, or studio. Although the home would benefit from a few cosmetic touches, many of the important improvements have already been completed. The roof, HVAC system, septic tank, and drain field are approximately five years old. Additional upgrades include new gutters, updated electrical wiring in both the main house and detached suite, and a new electrical panel in the garage with capacity for future components. The well is supported by a new water-filtration system and reverse osmosis adding convenience and peace of mind. With 1,904 square feet in the main home, an inground pool, pool house, one-car garage, and ample outdoor space, the property offers exceptional possibilities for entertaining, relaxing, and creating a private retreat. Its older construction provides warmth and architectural character, while its strong bones and updated major systems offer a solid foundation for its next chapter. Centrally located with convenient access to Downtown Jacksonville, major roadways, shopping, dining, and the beaches, this distinctive property combines privacy with accessibility. Bring your vision and make this charming Jacksonville home your own.
