Own a piece of Jacksonville history by scheduling a preview of this home today. Constructed circa 1870 the Cheney/Cummer house sat on the banks of the St. Johns river in an area that is currently hosting the Riverside Arts Market. Shortly after the turn of the 20th century (c.1909), the house was moved from the Cummer compound and barged up the river to the site it rests on today, 2959 Riverside Ave. Due to a miscalculation, the home was too wide for the parcel of land. Being so far out in the country and with no others houses around it, the home was placed sideways on the lot. Today the Cheney/Cummer house stands as a piece of Jacksonville history and architectural heritage.
