November 08, 2007 - Jacksonville, Fla. -- The area’s most anticipated community, Old San Jose on the River, is beginning to take shape with the construction of the guard house at the front entrance, the Naughton TownHomes, three Coach Homes and the neighborhood’s first of four riverfront buildings.
Old San Jose on the River pays homage to the scenic beauty and refined lifestyle of its namesake. Drawing ambiance and symmetry from the natural beauty of the St. Johns, Old San Jose celebrates the rich character of eras past as it re-imagines an inspired style of living for this age.
This gated, riverfront community’s intimate setting includes a combination of low- and mid-rise buildings, with classic Mediterranean designs. River Home Condominiums boast magnificent penthouses with priceless river views; Parkside Condominiums overlook tree-lined gardens and three-story TownHomes feature attached two-car garages, accessible from a courtyard entry.
Two rows of Coach Houses will line a single paver-finished street near the front of the neighborhood. This unique concept features four exclusive single-level homes in each two-story building.
“We’ve had a lot of interest because many people are interested in condominium living , however they do not to live in a tower or a building that has 50 residences,” said project manager Jim Citrano.
Lower Coach House entryways are positioned on different sides of the building, while upper Coach House residents will enter from the center of each building, affording homeowners the utmost privacy.
Upper level residences are 2,080 square feet and feature three bedrooms andtwo bathroomswith balcony. Lower level homes are 1,545 square feet and include two bedrooms, two baths, plus a den/guest room and lanai.
Coach House kitchens feature designer wood cabinets, a stainless steel appliance package and elegant 3cm granite countertops.Master bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious and feature solid surface vanity tops with backsplash, two integral sinks, a deep soaking tub and separate tiled walk-in shower.
Inside each Coach House, a spacious floor plan awaits with elevated ceilings throughout. Luxurious finishes such as crown molding, double knock down ceilings and optional fireplaces are standard. Unwavering attention has been paid to every detail, right down to the designer door hinges and extensive custom millwork.
Coach House pricing starts at $539,000.. Construction on the first three residences is expected to be complete early next summer.
When complete, Old San Jose on the River will feature European scaled streets and sidewalks, riverfront gardens, an elegant infinity edge swimming pool, outdoor living areas and promenades, pocket parks, a state-of-the art fitness center, guest suites and lush and expansive gardens and green spaces nestled among century-old oak trees.
