Lakeside Townhomes for Sale

Lakeside, a neighborhood in Jacksonville, is known for its proximity to Doctors Lake, an inlet from the St. Johns River, making it a hotspot for watersports like fishing and boating. The area spans about 15 square miles and features dense suburbs with tall oaks draped in moss. Blanding Boulevard runs through the community, providing access to retail, businesses, and over 10 places of worship. For outdoor enthusiasts, Foxridge County Park offers tennis and pickleball courts, while Moody Avenue Park has a baseball diamond and multipurpose fields. Smaller parks like Greenwood Park and W. E. Varnes Park add to the green spaces available. Poochie's Park is a private option for dog owners. The Clay Maverick's Saddle Club caters to equestrian activities. Education is a highlight, with highly rated schools such as Lakeside Elementary, Doctors Inlet Elementary, Lakeside Junior High, and Ridgeview High. The neighborhood features a mix of midcentury brick ranches, New Traditional condos, split levels, and modern farmhouses. Most homes are single-story ranches, often on larger plots outside subdivisions, and lack resort-style amenities due to the absence of Community Development Districts. Blanding Boulevard is the main commercial artery, home to Walmart, Publix, and dining options like Shrimp Shack Seafood Kitchen and Big Dawgs Family Sports Restaurant. Crackers Lounge is a local favorite for late-night karaoke. The neighborhood is safer than the national average and is about 20 miles from downtown Jacksonville, with limited public transportation making car travel essential. HCA Florida Orange Park Hospital is just 5 miles away.
