What the county record says

Reading the numbers

$698.56 ranks 65th of 1,042 by rate — the top 7% of the roll. On this street it is 4th of 38, $182.01 above the street average and $165.25 above the Summerport Beach average.

Built 1935, the oldest house on the street by twelve years. Only four parcels in the entire roll carry 1935, and 26 were built before 1950. This is the elder of the block's four pre-1950 houses.

37th of 38 by area, 37th by value. The smallest house on the frontage apart from 5453, and the second-lowest assessment on the street — yet the fourth-highest rate. A $845,960 assessment resting on 1,211 sq ft is a waterfront land figure with a small house on it.

Reading the frontage

Lakefront is a mapped-polygon flag against Lake Butler. The parcel reaches the water. No shoreline length, dock, seawall or lift is recorded against it, and the flag does not confirm a navigable channel or a mooring.

The distance field reads 1,380 m, 68 m inside the street average of 1,448 m. That field is a position reference against the water polygon, not a frontage measurement.

A 1935 build year is a county record, not a deed. It says the appraiser places the structure in 1935; it does not establish that no earlier house stood here, and it does not record any addition since.

What this page is not

• It is not a listing. Nothing here says the property is for sale.
• It is not an appraisal. Just value is the county's assessment figure for its own tax year.
• It does not confirm a dock, a seawall or navigable access to Lake Butler.
• It does not record a renovation, an addition or a historic designation.
