About this home
Riverside
On a prominent corner in the heart of Riverside stands the John Ball House, a rare three-story historic residence with both architectural character and exceptional flexibility. Zoned CRO (Commercial Residential Office), the property offers unique possibilities for residential living, a live-work environment, or a professional office in one of Jacksonville's most beloved historic neighborhoods. Originally saved and relocated to this site through the early preservation efforts of Riverside Avondale Preservation, the home carries both historic significance and enduring charm. From the moment you arrive, the home's presence is unmistakable. The expansive front porch stretches across the façade, a welcoming place for morning coffee, evening cocktails, and long conversations on the porch swing while the neighborhood moves gently around you. With a Walk Score of 90, the best of Riverside's dining, parks, and shopping are just moments away. Inside, the home unfolds

Cost to own
True monthly cost
What this home actually costs per month at the asking price — not just the mortgage.
- • Homeowners insurance is on top — in Florida it varies widely with roof age and wind/flood zone (see the Reality Check below). Budget it before you offer.
- • In CDD communities (Nocatee, eTown, Seven Pines…), bond assessments are collected on the property-tax bill, and the amount varies home to home — a prior owner may have prepaid the bond — so we confirm this home’s exact line rather than trust a community average.
- • Taxes are estimated at YOUR purchase price — Florida assessments reset on sale, so the seller’s current bill is usually lower than yours will be (that applies to the reference bill above too).

Florida’s Save Our Homes cap limits how fast the current owner’s assessment can rise — and it resets when a home sells, so a buyer’s tax bill is typically based on the purchase price, not the seller’s bill above. Estimate uses the median effective rate across 3,305 current Duval listings and includes typical non-ad-valorem assessments; actual taxes depend on exemptions and taxing district.
