Rivertown

     The St. Johns County Commission recently approved a land-use plan for a proposed 4,500-unit mixed-use development located on approximately 4,170 acres of land owned by The St. Joe Co, the largest landowner in Florida. The proposed community of RiverTown is located along more than 3 mi. of the St. Johns River in St. Augustine, FL within commuting distance to Jacksonville.

     Plans for RiverTown community call for a town center with 3,700 single-family homes and 800 multi-family units, including condominiums.  No other community in Northeast Florida will offer the diversity of homes as will be in Rivertown.  Upon completion Rivertown community will offer St. Johns River front estates, equestrian homes on 5-10 acres, condominiums, lakefront, preservation sites, townhomes, carriage homes, and virtual every classic and contemporary style home one could imagine!  Rivertown will be laid out very similar to Celebration Florida FL outside of Orlando, also developed by St. Joe Corporation.

Main Street District 

     The first phase of homes in the RiverTown community will be the main street district.   This Live, work, and play section will mix multi-family and single family homes along with shops, restaurants, offices,  as well as classic style parks!  The homes currently being built in the Rivertown community in the Main St. District feature rear access entry alleys to the homes, with very strict architectural guidelines for the builders which will make for very different styles of homes, townhomes, and condominiums mixing together in Rivertown.

The Garden District

The Garden District will be the second phase of homes in Rivertown by St. Joe Corp.  This area of the community will be home to the Summer House amenities center, which will showcase a fitness center, two pools, tennis courts and playfields for family games.  Residents in Rivertown will be able to utilizeThe Garden District and will be able to grow their own Fruits, Vegetables, and Herbs in the Florida weather to enjoy themselves or trade with friends and neighbors.  It will truly be a hub for social gatherings within the community! 

Other Phases of Rivertown will include The Bungalow District, The Lakes District, The Farms District, The Coves District, and The Trails District, and will all feature distinct style homes and lots to suite any home buyers interests.

     In addition, RiverTown is being planned to include 300,000 sq. ft. of retail, commercial and services uses, 100,000 sq. ft. of office space and 100,000 sq. ft. for light industry. The plan also includes a 58 Acre riverfront park with community dock, protected environmental areas, eight athletic fields, nature trails and an 18-hole golf course, and several different amenities centers throughout the community.  A unique fixture will be a community garden, where every home owner in Rivertown will have the choice to own a small garden area, a great place to meet and socialize with friends!  Plans are for 1900 Acres of preservation around the community, including the highly anticipated riverfront park.  There are many other amenities in Rivertown I would love to tell you about!
