Once in a while, a property becomes available that it is so rare as to be unique. This outstanding estate is part of George Fleming's original 1000 acre land grant, dating from 1796, known as Hibernia. The home, named Holly cottage was constructed in 1897 and is the only remaining home of the 'Old Place' owned by the Fleming family. Along with Saint Margaret's church, located just down this picturesque road, these are the only structures on Fleming Island that are listed on the National Historic Register. Holly Cottage is situated on 4.7 acres and boast over 270 feet of bluff frontage directly on the 3 mile wide St. John's river. This beautiful high and dry property accented with majestic oaks is located in the very heart of Fleming Island on its best street. The shingle style home has beautiful heart pine floors, high ceilings, and elegant features throughout. The main home features four bedrooms and three full baths with a living room, spacious den, and study. There is a porch in the front from which to survey the impressive property and porches on the back with commanding views of the river. A separate garage building with an attached guest apartment adds a bedroom and full bath to the total. There is also a dock and boathouse. If you and your family want to fully embrace the history of Fleming Island and add your own chapter to "Margaret's story". This is your last remaining chance!
