About this home
8830 COCOA AVENUE
Fresh, updated, and seriously easy to love. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath Jacksonville home has the kind of upgrades that make everyday living feel a whole lot easier. Inside, you’ll find fresh neutral paint, brand-new luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout, an updated kitchen, and beautifully remodeled bathrooms. The result is a clean, modern look that gives you a great blank canvas to make the space your own. And the updates go well beyond the pretty stuff. The home features a full-house water softener, a Kinetico charcoal drinking water filter in the kitchen, and a whole-house reverse osmosis water system. The original cast iron piping has also been eliminated and replaced with PEX plumbing through the attic and crawl space. The roof is approximately 11 years old, and the A/C is approximately 12 years old and was recently serviced. Outside, there’s a covered carport, screened rear porch, new gutters with leaf guards, a partially fenced yard, and a storage shed. The landscaping is pure Florida, with mature lemon and orange trees and plenty of natural greenery that gives the yard its own laid-back character. Whether you’re relaxing on the screened porch, grabbing a lemon from the backyard, or enjoying a home where so many major updates have already been taken care of, this one brings together modern upgrades and classic Florida living in a really nice way. Come take a look. You might just find your new Jacksonville home.

Value check
Is the price right?
The internet’s favorite home-value number comes from a single automated model that has never seen the street, the finishes, or the view — which is why it routinely misses by tens of thousands of dollars. The edgeAI estimate combines multiple independent data sources with our team’s on-the-ground expertise in this exact market.
