What It's Like to Live in Eagles Glen
Eagles Glen's location on the Westside puts residents within about 11 miles of the Riverside Arts Market's Saturday riverfront gathering — local farmers, makers, and food trucks under the Fuller Warren Bridge — and roughly the same distance from the Cummer Museum of Art & Gardens and its historic St. Johns River gardens. For an evening out, Restaurant Orsay in Avondale is about 11 miles away, offering a French bistro atmosphere the area is known for, while Cowford Chophouse in a restored 1902 building on Bay Street is roughly 13 miles out. Downtown venues like 121 Financial Ballpark, home of the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp, and VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena add live sports and entertainment options about 14 miles east. What buyers often ask me about a community like this — still pre-opening and priced as new construction — is what the surrounding daily-errand landscape looks like; I'd encourage anyone seriously interested to drive POW-MIA Memorial Parkway and get a firsthand feel for the corridor.

What types of homes will be available at Eagles Glen?
The approved plan calls for a mix of single-family homes, attached homes, and townhomes — a range of product types that tends to reflect different price points within a single community. Because the community has not yet launched sales, specific floor plans, pricing, and lot availability haven't been publicly released. I'd recommend connecting with me directly so we can track the builder's release information as it becomes available.
