Property Description
Alfred I Dupont and wife, Jesse Ball chose this beautiful property in 1926 to construct their Florida home. You too can enjoy the romantic ambiance and history everyday as you drive through the Epping Forest Yacht Club gate to this elegant home. Feel the river breezes and enjoy views of St. Johns River from the high bluff lot on a quiet cul-de-sac. Tender love and care was poured into every nook and cranny of this home. The current owners spared no expense or detail in the recent renovations. The court yard garden leads to the front door with a Bevelo gas burning lantern flickering warm, welcoming light.
