WATERFRONT LAND | NO HOA | DEEP NAVIGABLE TIDAL CANAL TO JULINGTON CREEK Waterfront vacant land in the Mandarin area of Jacksonville with canal frontage connecting directly to Julington Creek and St. Johns River. Lot Dimensions: 100' Frontage x 320' Depth Total Size: 0.74 Acres | High and Dry Mostly cleared waterfront land zoned for residential construction, including custom or modular homes. Located near the end of a cul-de-sac, the property offers a more private setting with limited through traffic while remaining conveniently positioned within the Mandarin area. The generous 320-foot lot depth provides substantial space for residential construction along with the potential for a private dock with direct access to waterways for boating, kayaking, paddle-boarding, and other water activities. Situated in Mandarin with close proximity to major roadways, shopping, dining and other Jacksonville destinations. ***** Photo of Canal in AUGUST 2025 ***** Florida's Ecology: In Jacksonville's tidal creeks and canals, you may notice seasonal floating vegetation such as duckweed. This is a natural part of the waterways and is most common in the warmer months when the water is calm and nutrient-rich. Because this property sits on a tidal canal, the regular tide movement helps keep water refreshed. Wildlife, including manatees, are often seen grazing on this vegetation, making it a rare opportunity to enjoy both waterfront living and Florida's natural ecosystem right from your backyard!
