East Jacksonville suburb a short distance from the beach
The suburb of Sans Pareil sits between bustling downtown Jacksonville and the Atlantic coast, offering a mix of modest residences, contemporary subdivisions and gated communities overlooking a golf course. The neighborhood is adjacent to the University of North Florida, making it suitable for faculty and staff working at the school. Sans Pareil students are zoned for well-rated schools in the Duval County Public Schools district, one of the community's draws, says Ralph Colbert, a real estate broker with Glen Kernan Realty, Inc., who has been in commercial real estate for 36 years. "There are a lot of young families moving in," says Colbert. "We are probably the most diverse group of residents of any other community; we're a little bit of everything."
Sans Pareil contains many planned developments.

The Glen Kernan Golf and Country Club offers an 18-hole course, tennis courts and driving range at the neighborhood's southern end. Colbert says that Sans Pareil is 8 miles from the Atlantic coast, so residents are never too far from the golden sand beaches.
