Prime real estate on auction at Amelia RiverWalk in Fernandina Beach, Florida

Attention golf enthusiasts: have you considered purchasing a new home near a prime golfing destination in beautiful, sunny Florida? If so, this is a perfect opportunity for you!

The Freedom Realty Exchange (www.FRE.com), a real estate auction marketing website and part of the LFC Group of Companies, has just announced the launch of an online auction campaign to sell eight brand-new, grand estate homes at Amelia RiverWalk in Fernandina Beach, Florida.

Shaded by majestic canopies of tall oak trees, Amelia RiverWalk is a private gated community located just 30 miles outside of downtown Jacksonville and across from charming Amelia Island, named the "5th Best Island in America" by Condé Nast Traveler in 2004. An untouched paradise, Fernandina Beach offers recreational activities among miles of pristine waterways and beaches, like kayaking, horseback riding, sunbathing, fishing, sailing and, of course, golfing! Amelia Island offers three championship courses designed by Tom Fazio, Bobby Weed and Pete Dye, plus the newly opened 18-hole Amelia River Golf Club (formerly known as Royal Amelia), crafted by Tom Jackson. Immersed in Southern charm and history, Fernandina Beach was recently named one of the "top 12 travel destinations in the U.S." by the National Trust for Historic Preservation.

These luxurious homes feature 4 to 5 bedrooms and 3 to 4.5 bathrooms, and range from approximately 3,000 sq. ft. to over 4,300 sq. ft. Each home includes attractive features like a covered front and rear patio, hardwood and ceramic tile floors, solid-surface countertops, an energy efficient central air conditioning and heating system, recessed lighting and walk-in closets. Though originally priced at an average of over $500,000, these homes will be offered on FRE.com with minimum bids as low as $223,000. Also included in the online home auction is the exquisite fully-furnished St. Augustine model. Previously priced at $1,000,000, this 4,334 sq. ft. home has a minimum bid of only $1!

If you've been looking to purchase a vacation or retirement home in Florida, this is the opportunity you've been waiting for. The bid deadline is Thursday, May 1, 2008.
