Property Description
Step into a rare piece of Florida history with this 3,790 sq ft home built in 1877 by Thomas Benjamin Eville using cypress harvested right from the property. Sitting on 3 acres of agricultural-zoned land, it's perfect for horses, chickens, or your dream hobby farm. The three-acre fenced backyard is ready for animals and activities, while a refreshing pool and a pavilion with a summer kitchen set the stage for unforgettable gatherings.
Inside, you'll find seven bedrooms (two non-conforming) and three and a half baths, including a beautifully remodeled primary suite and another updated bath. Four fireplaces add warmth and historic charm, while thoughtful updates — a new roof, air conditioning, and added insulation completed in 2017 — ensure comfort without sacrificing character. Over $250,000 in upgrades and refurbishments have been invested in this property — see the full upgrade list for details. A large steel building offers ample space for storage, equipment, or a workshop. You'll be just minutes from Ravine Gardens State Park, with schools, shopping, and even the nostalgic charm of the nearby train station close at hand.
This home offers the perfect blend of history, space, and modern upgrades ideal for anyone seeking a peaceful retreat, a family home with room to roam, or a property with agricultural freedom. All of this is set in Palatka, a historic riverfront community that's quietly transforming into one of Northeast Florida's most up-and-coming small towns.
