A suburb in the Mandarin area
The aptly named suburban enclave of Sunbeam has many subdivisions surrounded by retail. The area is located on the southside, in the Mandarin region, which has relatively higher housing prices compared to other parts of the city. "Most of Jacksonville's new growth is in the south side," says Robert Kanjian, a local real estate broker with 15 years of experience at Real Estate Matters. "Sunbeam is at the center of this major part of town. It's a haven for new homes." Among the quiet streetscapes are front yards with trimmed lawns and sidewalks.

Late midcentury builds mixed with new developments
Single-family homes in Sunbeam tend to hold their value over time. Walnut Bend subdivision contains 1980s brick ranch-style houses with no homeowners association. Developments like Grenbrooke and the 55-plus community Everlake contain some of the area's most recent homes with new traditional styles. There are also attached homes inside the Edgewater At Sunbeam and the gated Osprey Branch subdivisions.
