What It's Like to Live in Double Branch
Day-to-day life in Double Branch has a quiet, suburban rhythm — sidewalks, a dog park, a neighborhood park, a playground, and a jogging path give residents plenty of reasons to spend time outdoors close to home. For a sit-down meal or a cultural outing, Jacksonville's Avondale and San Marco neighborhoods are roughly 14–15 miles away, where Restaurant Orsay and Matthew's Restaurant represent the metro's more distinctive dining. On weekends, the Riverside Arts Market draws locals to the riverfront under the Fuller Warren Bridge, and the Cummer Museum of Art & Gardens — with its St. Johns River garden views — is a worthwhile stop about 14 miles out. What surprises buyers touring Double Branch is how connected the location feels despite its tucked-away, suburban character.
The Homes
Double Branch Homes & Architecture
Homes in Double Branch are exclusively single-family, built in Traditional and Craftsman styles — think covered front porches, board-and-batten detailing, and clean architectural lines that hold up well on the larger lots. Floor plans typically run from about 2,800 to 3,700 square feet, with most homes offering 4–5 bedrooms and 3 to 4.5 bathrooms — layouts that include dedicated offices, upstairs lofts, and flexible second living areas. Inside, the new-construction finishes lean toward open floorplans with gourmet kitchens anchored by oversized islands, walk-in pantries, quartz countertops, and smart-home technology baked in from the start. Primary suites typically feature walk-in closets and spa-style showers rather than soaking tubs, and luxury vinyl plank flooring carries through the main living spaces. Prices generally range from the $500s into the upper $600s, and several homesites offer pond or preserve backdrops.

Questions
Frequently Asked Questions about Double Branch
Does Double Branch have CDD fees?
HOA fees do apply and are assessed quarterly, with a range that varies by homesite, so confirm the exact figure for any specific home you're considering. Carrying costs vary lot to lot in communities like this, so I verify the current association and district numbers per home rather than quote a page figure.
What are the homes like in Double Branch — are they all new construction?
The homes currently available in Double Branch were built between 2024 and 2026, so the inventory skews very new. You'll find single-family homes in Traditional and Craftsman styles, typically running 4–5 bedrooms across roughly 2,800 to 3,700 square feet, with builder-grade finishes like quartz kitchens, open floorplans, and smart-home features already included. Some homesites back to ponds or natural preserve, which adds meaningful privacy on a lot that might otherwise feel suburban.
