Description

A screened pool, a pond out back, and your own private dock and pergola at the water's edge. 124 Oakwood Plantation Drive is a single-story Fleming Island pool home where the big-ticket items are already done. New roof. New air conditioning. New water heater. New flooring and fresh interior paint throughout. Low annual HOA and no CDD. Picture a regular weeknight here. You open the french doors onto the covered lanai, ceiling fans turning, and the pool stretches out in front of you under a full panoramic screen enclosure. Past the screen, the lawn runs down to a long pond lined with trees on the far bank. Walk across the yard and you're on the wood deck under the pergola, right at the water. It's the spot for morning coffee, a slow Sunday with a book, or dinner for two while the sun goes down. The screen keeps the pool clean and the bugs out, so the lanai stays usable from spring straight through fall. Inside, the home opens with a columned entry and arched openings that set the tone. To one side, a formal dining room with columns, a chandelier and plantation shutters is ready for holidays and long dinners. A separate formal living room gives you a second place to gather. The family room is the heart of the house, with a fireplace framed by built-in shelving, high ceilings with display niches, and tall windows looking out to the pool. The kitchen opens right to the family room, so the cook stays in the conversation. Rich wood cabinetry, granite counters, a center island and stainless appliances sit under a vaulted ceiling, and the breakfast nook is wrapped in windows. A dedicated home office means working from home doesn't take over the dining table. The primary suite has a tray ceiling and French doors straight out to the lanai, so the pool is the first thing you see in the morning. The primary bath has a garden tub, a glass walk-in shower and separate vanities. The guest bedrooms share a full bath, and a powder room off the main living area handles guests. New light oak-tone plank flooring runs through the living areas and bedrooms, and every room has fresh paint. 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths and 2529 square feet, all on one level. Here's the part that matters at inspection. The roof [2026], the AC system [2022] and the water heater [2025] are all new. The home has been impeccably maintained, and it shows in every room. Out front, a stucco and stone exterior, palms and mature landscaping give the home real curb appeal. Oakwood Plantation is a small, single-street community on Fleming Island with sidewalks, street lights, a neighborhood park, a playground and a walking path. The HOA is about $500 a year and there's no CDD, which keeps carrying costs well below many newer master-planned communities in Clay and St. Johns counties. Location is a big part of the appeal. Fleming Island sits on the west bank of the St. Johns River in Clay County, just south of Orange Park along US-17. Groceries, retail and restaurants along US-17 and County Road 220 are a few minutes from home. Baptist Clay Medical Campus is right on Fleming Island. Orange Park and Orange Park Mall are about 15 minutes north, and NAS Jacksonville is about 20 mins. Commuting is simple. US-17 and I-295 put downtown Jacksonville about 30 minutes away. The Buckman Bridge on I-295 connects you to Mandarin and the Southside, with St. Johns Town Center about 30 to 35 minutes out and Mayo Clinic Jacksonville about 40. Jacksonville International Airport is roughly 45 minutes. Historic St. Augustine is about 45 minutes across the St. Johns River, and the Jacksonville beaches run about 50 minutes to an hour. When the First Coast Expressway is complete, you will be able to get to all areas of NE Florida in approx 30 mins. If you love the water, you're surrounded by it. The St. Johns River, Doctors Lake and Black Creek wrap around Fleming Island, with public boat ramps, fishing and paddling close by. Area golf courses, parks and riverfront trails round out the weekends. Schools are part of the picture too. Clay County District Schools earned an "A" district grade from the Florida Department of Education. Single-story living, a screened pool, a pond, a private dock, new systems and no CDD, all in one Fleming Island home. Welcome Home!
