Magnolia Gardens Homes for Rent

Magnolia Gardens, located in northwest Jacksonville, is a modest neighborhood just six miles from Downtown Jacksonville. Known for its large lots and affordable living, it features classic three-bed, three-bath ranch-style homes from the early 1900s, with brick walls and shingled roofs. While many lawns are unkempt, they offer ample space for gardening or entertaining. The neighborhood is adjacent to the Jacksonville Railyard district, so residents may hear train sounds. Magnolia Gardens is part of the Duval County school district, which is highly rated in Jacksonville. Edgewood Square serves as the local shopping hub with Harvey’s Supermarket and Mr. Shark Crab Shack, while the Gateway Town Center, five miles away, offers national chain stores. For entertainment, residents can visit the VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena or The Florida Theatre downtown. The Johnson Family YMCA provides community amenities such as a basketball gym, swimming pools, and youth camps. Outdoor activities can be enjoyed at the 125-acre Lonnie C. Miller Sr. Regional Park. The neighborhood is generally car-dependent, with the US-1 highway six miles away and Jacksonville International Airport 11 miles away. The Northwest Jacksonville Community Development Corporation is committed to improving local safety standards.
