5 Beds ⋅ 2 Baths ⋅ 2167801 MLS
Two separate homes on one property create a unique opportunity in Jacksonville's historic Lakeshore neighborhood. Move into one and rent out the other, create space for extended family, or enjoy two completely separate residences on one property. Offering approximately 1,748 square feet of combined living space, the property includes a 3-bedroom, 1-bath main home fronting Birkenhead and a separate 2-bedroom, 1-bath home with its own address, entrance and outdoor space on Harvester. Each residence has the privacy and feel of its own single-family home, rather than a traditional attached multifamily property, with separate living spaces, entrances and outdoor porches/decks. Each home also has its own washer and dryer. The detached configuration creates flexibility for a variety of living arrangements while maintaining separation and privacy between the two homes. Both residences have undergone recent improvements, offering peace of mind for the next homeowner or investor walking into substantial capital improvements. The Birkenhead home features an updated kitchen, flooring, interior improvements and a 2023 roof. The Harvester home includes an updated kitchen, renovated bath, interior paint, new ceiling fans and a 2026 roof. Both homes have HVAC systems three years old or newer, along with new water heaters. Plumbing includes CPVC supply lines and PVC drain lines and the septic system was inspected and pumped in February 2026. Both structures also have termite bonds. The location adds another layer of appeal. Fans & Stoves Antique Mall and Lakeshore Produce Market are just a two-block walk away, while the Curtis Lee Johnson public boat ramp is only about seven blocks from the property, providing convenient neighborhood access to the water for kayaking and boating. Currently producing $3,000 per month in rental income, the property offers $36,000 in annual gross rental income, providing an opportunity for a future owner to offset housing costs while occupying one residence or continue using both homes as rentals. For a homeowner or investor seeking something beyond the typical duplex or single-family property, Birkenhead/Harvester offers a distinctive setup: two detached homes, one parcel, separate addresses and living spaces, established rental income, and substantial recent improvements — all while providing the privacy and lifestyle of two individual homes. *This home is also listed under residential MLS # 2167799
