About the host
Hosted by Lorraine Walsh
Originally from Ireland, we have called Jacksonville home for 26 years. We have four kiddos: one just graduated from FSU, one is a senior at FSU, and our third is a Freshman at the Univerity of South Carolina. Our caboose is 12, now in 7th grade. We love the Riverside area of Jacksonville, which reminds us of Ireland with its distinct charm and beauty.
Why they chose this property
As mentioned above, our Irish roots were ignited when we found the Riverside area of Jacksonville. It reminded us so much of our hometowns, and we fell in love with it from the first time we saw it. My husband, Michael is a General Contractor and always wanted to get involved in a restoration project with one of these homes. This is the home he chose.
What makes this property unique
This 1923 home is listed as an historic home. It has proudly been a part of the Riverside Tour of Homes in 2024. Everything about it exudes charm and warmth, and it has been restored with love and respect.
