The next major intersection is a blinker light at Central Avenue, which is near the local library and police station.

By the time Tavares' territory is more spread out and includes more than just SR 19, it crosses a bridge over the Dead River just before the intersection with County Road 452 (West Main Street).

The intersection of County Road Old 441 contains a rail trail on the south side, and serves as part of a wye intersection where northbound SR 19 joins southbound US 441 and eastbound SR 44 through the rest of Tavares where CR 452 branches off onto Lake Eustis Drive while US 441-SR 19-44 cross a bridge over Lake Juniata.

Between Mount Homer Road and David Walker Drive, the triplex crosses into Eustis until it encounters an interchange where part of CR 19A terminates.

Here the road runs along the west side of Trout Lake for a short distance and well after that intersects CR 44A.

Umatilla Boulevard begins on the northwest corner of this intersection and runs parallel to SR 19 until it reaches Lake Street.

Even as it passes along the west side of Lake Pearl, the old railway grade right of way can be found until it finally diverges from SR 19 just south of Pittman.

Soon enough, it passes the Beakman Lake Recreational Area, but beyond that point the rest of the surroundings consist of purely wilderness and occasional intersections with NFS dirt roads, as well as the U.S. Navy's Pinecastle Bombing Range.

The road crosses the Lake-Marion County Line and serves as the southern terminus of the Backwoods Trail before intersecting SR 40 northwest of Wildcat Lake.

Upon descending the top of this bridge the road intersects CR 310 which secretly joins SR 19 as it turns northeast, leaving Ocala National Forest.

After crossing the right-of-way for a series of power lines,[4] the forest thins out as road turns north momentarily then curves to the northeast again.

North of West Rellim Drive, the right-of-way for new eastbound lanes are exposed, then widens to a divided highway near the Palatka City Limits in the vicinity of the local Wal-Mart Supercenter.

The road crosses two other intersections before reaching the Palatka Mall and descending slightly toward SR 100 (Reid Street).

As it passes by the Putnam County Sheriff's Office, and runs along the north side of an athletic field, SR 19 finally ends at the intersection of U.S. 17, which contains controlled ramps within the divider.

The segment north of the intersection with Silver Lake Road near Palatka was once part of the Ocklawaha Valley Railroad.
