Mixed-Use Land for Sale in Jacksonville, Florida
17 W 5th St Jacksonville, FL 32206
Rare opportunity to build your own home in the only gated community within Historic Springfield. Hoyt Terrace is an enclave of single family homes grouped as a courtyard community. It began in 1895 when John H Kooker built his home deep inside a large lot on W 5th St, with the house oriented perpendicular to the street. Within a few years he built 2 more houses facing his on the same lot, and by 1911 he had built the last of 6 homes in the group. This last home was purchased by Albert B Hoyt, who following Hooker's death in 1917, bought the entire property and named it Hoyt Terrace. Five of the six homes still remain. Hoyt Terrace features a private entrance garden with lush landscaping and gorgeous water fountains, all maintained by the association. WINNER 2005 Historic PRESERVATION AWARD. Springfield's only gated community. Currently has a storage building on the lot which would need to be taken down by new owner in order to build a home. Zoned commercial but is buildable as a single family home with zoning change (it's a down zoning which is usually very doable). Existing storage building cannot be converted to use as residential nor can it be used for a business.
Directions
Just West of Main St on 5th, North side of street. Look for the large ornate black metal gated entry.
