Amelia Island
Amelia Island, FloridaJust imagine flying into JAX International, grabbing your bags, and 30 minutes later, driving through the front entrance security gates of Oyster Bay Harbors, the world class yachting community. You've already alerted the captain of your arrival and he has the boat fueled up and ready for departure. During the short drive through the community, you feel a sense of calm pouring over you... actually it's more like taking a deep, deep breath...exhaling...and all the troubles and worries just melt away. Your winding trip through the woods takes you past many beautiful homes, but the real pleasure comes from the wave and the "Hello! Welcome home!" you get from your dear friends and neighbours. Thoughts come to mind... I wonder if they're playing poker tonight at Tom's... How many strokes is Gerry going to give me tomorrow, and what time are we teeing off?... Man, those oysters we roasted at David's last month were incredible... I need to call him and tell him I'll bring the oysters and beer if he'll just cook 'em!. Your daydreaming quickly turns to reality as you pull onto your causeway and see your "family compound". You enjoy the sense of accomplishment and the security you have built for yourself and your family... you're proud of yourself. No time to unload the bags... you hop on ship... within minutes you're at the intracoastal... a few minutes more and you're at the sea bouy! You drop a couple of lines and watch out - the cobia are biting! Whoa... you've hooked a big one... that's enough for one afternoon. After a quick run home, you unload the bags, shower, and continue to unwind.. except your wife is hungry..."seafood" she says! You enjoy the sunset cruise over to the Fernandina Beach Historic District on Amelia Island, Florida. After an incredible gourmet dinner at LeClos, you take a stroll along Centre Street and do a little window shopping. You pick up an Amelia Now, and as you browse through it, you think to yourself.... "Gosh, this is a wonderful place to live!" You reach Okane's Irish Pub and boy is it ever hopping... Davis must be playing tonight. You think, "You know, some good jazz would really top off this incredible day!" You grab a cab, and within minutes you're at the incredible oceanfront Ritz Carlton enjoying Les and Bonnie. A nice cognac, a good cigar... man we've got to go... I just remembered that 7:32 tee time at Royal Amelia Links with Gerry! If quality of life is what you're interested in, please invest the time to truly understand what the combination of Johnson Neck Island, Fernandina Beach / Amelia Island, Jacksonville and northeast Florida in general have to offer. And as they say, a picture tells a thousand words... so please take the time to browse through the maps, waterway charts and photos... you'll be glad you did... and we bet that you will consider Johnson Neck Island the most unique, beautiful, and intriguing property you've ever seen! Just imagine, your own private 3 acre island with 16+' of water at low tide... close proximity to the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean...the ability to build up to 3 magnificent homes on the island, developing it into your own personal "family compound". The possibilities are endless. If you really want to go all out and do it right, you might as well have a place on the beach (did you know that The Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous rated the beaches of Amelia Island in the top 10 most beautiful beaches in the world!). We've got the perfect place just for you - magnificent oceanfront home. |
