Some properties sell a lifestyle. This one delivers the real thing. Tucked away on a secluded stretch of the St. Johns River, 159 Mays Cove Road sits on 1.66 acres with 136 feet of navigable riverfront. No HOA. No restrictions on boats, RVs, or trailers. Just the river, the sky, and room to live the way you actually want to. The home was built in 2024/2025, never occupied, masonry block construction engineered to Hurricane Exposure Category D -- the most stringent standard available. Impact glass throughout. 26-gauge metal roof with a 40-year warranty. Ceilings from 9'4'' to 13 feet. A 12x52 covered lanai that opens to the river. Italian quartz, an oversized carriage house with 3-bay garage below and a full 2/1 apartment above. Dock permitted to 500 feet.The floor plan opens wide to the river. The kitchen anchors the main living space with Italian quartz countertops and an island designed for people who actually cook and gather.From the master suite, the dining area, the kitchen, and multiple guest rooms, the St. Johns River is right there -- framed by cypress trees and Spanish moss, wide and quiet and unhurried. All of it opens to a 12 x 52 foot covered lanai that runs the length of the home. Sit out there long enough and you'll understand why someone built here. The primary bath is a standout -- full marble surround, walk-in shower, soaking tub, backlit mirrors, bidet. It's the one room in the home where the finishes reach out and grab you. Now -- the carriage house. This deserves its own conversation. The accessory structure at 159 Mays Cove is not an afterthought. It's a 1,080 square foot oversized three-bay garage on the ground level with epoxy floors, 50-amp RV hookup, and a 220-volt receptacle -- purpose-built for someone with toys, tools, or a serious hobby. Above it sits a fully appointed 1,080 square foot, 2-bedroom, 1-bath apartment with its own open deck. That's 2,160 square feet of accessory space alone. Rental income. Guest quarters. A place for family that has its own front door. The flexibility here is real, and it's rare. Beyond the main structures, the property includes a 12 x 14 storage shed with landing and ramp, separate concrete driveway and parking for boats and RVs, paver decks front and rear of the garage, and a front yard irrigation system already in place. The infrastructure list runs deep: 400-amp electric service with a single meter, a 4-inch free-flowing well at 100-foot depth with dual pumps and two softening systems, a 1,600-gallon septic system with large-capacity drain field, hardwired emergency generator receptacles, and a FEMA application already filed to reclassify the property to Flood Zone X -- which does not require federal flood insurance. Termite bonded. Wheelchair accessible throughout with ramped construction. FPL qualified for net metering. Whoever built this thought it through. Walk the dock and you'll understand the potential. The first 100 feet is in the water. The permit for the next 400 feet -- a full 5-foot wide, 500-foot dock -- is secured and ready. Water and electric piping are already run. What exists today is the beginning of something. A lift, a covered slip, a place to come home to by boat -- that's the next chapter, and the permit is already in hand. Some of the photos in this listing include AI-enhanced imagery to help illustrate the property's potential -- landscaping, exterior presentation, and finished dock scenarios. Each enhanced image is paired with its original photograph so you can see exactly where things stand today and where they're headed. This is not a property that needs someone to rescue it. It needs the right person to finish it -- someone who sees the river, understands what 5,210 total square feet of constructed space on 1.66 private acres actually represents, and wants to put their own mark on it. The hard work is done. The foundation, the structure, the permits, the infrastructure -- all of it is there. What's left is the part that makes it yours: the pool, the landscaping, the dock completed the way you want it, the outdoor kitchen brought to life. Twenty-five minutes from historic St. Augustine. A straightforward drive to Jacksonville. A world removed from both. $1,299,999. The river is included.
