Riverside Perfection: $11.5 Million English-Modern Estate With Private Dock and Infinity Pool in Jacksonville
Tucked away in the elite Granada neighborhood of Jacksonville, 4054 ALHAMBRA Drive W stands as a newly constructed English-Modern riverfront estate that reflects architectural grace and functional elegance. Priced at $11.5 million, this Jacksonville home for sale is designed not just for luxury living, but for an immersive lifestyle experience along the scenic St. John’s River.
Timeless Architecture Meets Market Momentum
Built in 2024, this two-story single-family residence offers approximately 6,948 square feet of interior space on a generous 1.04-acre lot. The property’s value has evolved dramatically over the years, with historical sales including a $15,000 transaction in 2002, followed by a significant resale at $1.825 million in 2021. In March 2025, the home entered the market at $14 million before settling at its current listing price. The home’s Zestimate® now approaches $11.95 million, indicating strong investment potential within the Jacksonville real estate landscape.
This residence reflects not only exceptional craftsmanship but also a smart real estate decision in a city where waterfront properties are becoming increasingly rare and valuable.
Interior Elegance with Thoughtful Features
As you approach the property through a tree-lined driveway, the home in Jacksonville for sale greets you with an imposing foyer that features a graceful stone staircase and panoramic views of the river beyond. The main living area connects organically with the dining and kitchen spaces, anchored by a gas fireplace that adds both warmth and ambiance to the setting. Natural light flows through oversized windows, reflecting off marble, wood, and stone flooring, and highlighting custom finishes throughout.
The kitchen is a chef’s dream, equipped with modern ENERGY STAR-rated appliances and a secondary butler’s kitchen that ensures seamless entertaining. Adjacent to the kitchen, a breakfast bar and kitchen island allow family and guests to gather comfortably, while built-in storage and open floor plans make the space functional as well as stylish.
The primary suite, located on the first floor, offers dramatic ceiling heights, a luxurious spa-inspired bathroom, and private access to an outdoor terrace complete with a third gas fireplace. A dedicated family room offers a cozy environment for movie nights, while a full gym and attached sauna provide wellness-focused convenience. Also on the first floor is a uniquely designed dog room, complete with its own bath and private dog run, as well as a separate laundry and mudroom that keeps the flow of daily life organized and efficient.
“We wanted the Jacksonville home for sale to be beautiful but liveable, modern but warm,” said Carole Knudson, lead agent at Petra Management Inc., in her interview with Luxury Houses Magazine. “Every element was carefully chosen with the owner’s lifestyle in mind.”
Upstairs, three generously sized guest suites – each with its own en-suite bath – offer serene views of the river. There’s also a comfortable upper-level lounge and an additional laundry room for added convenience, which reflects thoughtful space planning for families and long-term guests alike. “We see multigenerational living and extended hosting becoming more common among our luxury clients,” added Tod Knudson Jr., co-agent. “This Jacksonville home for sale is ideally equipped for both.”

A Resort-Caliber Outdoor Experience
Outside, the home in Jacksonville for sale becomes a true waterfront sanctuary. The heated saltwater infinity pool and spa are outlined with a seamless slot drain and designed to overlook the river, delivering a hotel-like atmosphere with the privacy of home. Adjacent to the pool, the outdoor kitchen is outfitted with a gas grill, stone countertops, and a bespoke pizza oven – crafted for memorable evenings and vibrant gatherings. The patio offers multiple conversation zones, complete with hanging sofas, shaded lounging areas, and a central firepit.
The property’s landscaping has been meticulously designed by one of Florida’s top pool and garden architects, transforming the grounds into a verdant playground. Tiedowns are integrated into the lawns to accommodate large event tents, making the estate ideal for entertaining on any scale.
A grand stone staircase leads to a private dock that spans two stories and includes a power lift for storing boats, jet skis, and kayaks. Along the shoreline, residents can enjoy shuffleboard, a practice putting green, or simply watch the sunset on the water with a glass of wine in hand. “We collaborated closely with the landscape team to ensure the outdoor experience was just as intentional as the architecture,” said Knudson. “It’s built to impress but also to last.”
