829 Riverview Dr E, Saint Marys, GA 31558

This Price Enhancement makes this exceptionally located riverfront home a chance to make it your very own!!! Deepwater property with a perch like elevation of the river and surrounding marsh is as rare as a full hand spread Megalodon tooth! Not many can say they have a heart-shaped island center stage of their pastoral marine setting. A short dock close at hand makes life easy to traverse between home and river life. This river view home fills your eyes, head, and heart with real-world live streaming nature. This 152 feet of deepwater frontage and the Georgia marsh delivers a perfect respite for contemplation and some slower life while mother earth also stages intervals of excitement yet, they require nothing from you; it is imbued and soon just part of you. Imagine a direct Captain's view of 300 feet across (tide waters) of blackwater brackish flowing by on the Borrell Creek. The sweeping marsh and watery inlets crawl all around the river to delight. Golden hour river sunsets and sunrises make everyone's heart a little happier here. The tide runs 6-7 feet and Borrell Creek feeds directly into the St. Marys River on the FL;GA line. You can hop on your boat and be at the dock in downtown St. Mary's riverfront in 10 or so minutes. It's a 20-minute boat ride to the Intracoastal waterway heading to Fernandina Beach on Amelia Island, Florida, and beyond. A few miles east is Cumberland Island National Seashore, which is 99% human free thanks to the Island Preservationist, Lucy Carnegie Ferguson, and others. Lucy's wild horses still run free on that island. Dining and entertainment options abound to discover your own favorites list. Dolphins play in your scenic waterscape where plant-only eating Manatees bump along with spoonbills, egrets, and eagles, to name a few. Toss a crab trap off your dock and have a mess of blue claws for dinner. Everyone knows the fishing here is stellar, so if lucky enough to call it your bolt-hole-sanctuary, you will enjoy one of nature's most excellent food stores anytime you desire right out the back door. The two-plus story contemporary with a Mediterranean feel from its faverolle colored stucco exterior provides the main living floor at 12 feet from the ground (elevation 10.34'), which living along a tidal river is a find. The expansive water views from the first floor are cinematic, and this height is what makes it just right. It will capture you to take you on one journey of the mind to another, with nature playing its award-winning roles daily. The main floor contains your primary needs. On the left side is a centered kitchen with a dining and living area, all with the river's view. A vaulted beamed ceiling living room and master ensuite make for comfortable living and entertaining on your right side. Need more bedrooms, offices, or whatever you fancy, there are two bedrooms and a full bathroom on the 2nd floor. For the outdoor lifestyle, this home has a hot tub, large cement patio with pergola, and a fire pit to gather round. The hand-built rip rap rock wall blends with the natural setting. On the ground floor is a room for you to define its use, full bath, laundry room, and a back-door entrance to the water. The sustainable old Florida style landscape with many salt-tolerant plantings face front toward the river while the side lawn is a golfer's choice having zoysia, lush carpet-like, grass. The home's foundation is a bonded method with twenty marine grade stainless steel pillars pile-driven into the lime rock at 1,400 psi to anchor her. It is all here for you to make your own! City and airport needs. Jacksonville is 40 minutes by car, and Jacksonville International airport is 30. There are several private airstrips within 40 minutes, as well. youtu.be/ihKIcj-qv_w
