About eTown
eTown is Jacksonville's first smart master-planned community in Duval County, built as seven named neighborhoods, each honoring an inventor — Kettering, Edison, Marconi, Nobel, Newton, Granville, and the age-restricted Del Webb eTown — with townhomes from roughly the $400s and single-family homes reaching $1.3 million. It's zoned for Mandarin Oaks Elementary and Twin Lakes Academy Middle School and is known for its high-tech infrastructure, sustainable design, and resort-style amenities. New construction homes in eTown are still selling across several of its neighborhoods.
Krista Fracke’s Take
All new master planned neighborhood built in the last 10 years, located with easy access to 295, UNF, and the Towncenter. A second Mechanism Coffee shop just opened near the Publix, it is family favorite!Krista Fracke, Broker Associate
Living Here
What It's Like to Live in eTown
Daily life in eTown puts two Publix locations within about 2 miles — one at Reedy Branch Commons and one at eTown Exchange — so grocery runs are genuinely quick. Maple Street Biscuit Company and Dutch Bros Coffee are just minutes away for morning routines, and The Avenues mall is roughly 3 miles out when you need a broader shopping trip. Fort Family Park and Deerwood Rotary Children's Park are both within about 2 to 3 miles for outdoor time, and if you want to get on the water, a kayak and canoe launch is reachable in under 5 miles. In the years I've worked this corridor of Jacksonville, eTown has attracted buyers specifically because the community's walkable design and on-site amenities make day-to-day life more self-contained than most newer Duval neighborhoods. School assignments here fall under Duval County Public Schools, and the district's zoning office can confirm exact address-level placements.
The Homes
eTown Homes & Architecture
New construction and near-new resale define the eTown housing stock — but the market runs far wider than the townhome wave suggests. Kettering carries the volume (David Weekley townhomes and single-family), Edison is the Toll Brothers luxury tier reaching past $1.1 million, Granville is Weekley-built single-family, Newton adds Toll townhomes, and estate-scale homes in the community have listed at $1.3 million. Pricing spans roughly the $400s for townhomes to $1.3 million at the top, making them accessible relative to comparable new construction along the First Coast. Interior finishes tend toward open-concept layouts with kitchen islands, walk-in pantries, walk-in closets, and primary suites with walk-in showers. HOA fees vary sharply by section — Kettering's townhome products carry roughly $240 a month on current listings, while Edison's single-family HOA runs about $357 a quarter — and every eTown home also carries a Cypress Bluff Community Development District assessment on the Duval County tax bill, separate from HOA dues and varying by product and lot. I pull the exact HOA and CDD lines for any eTown home my buyers consider.
Amenities
eTown Amenities & Community Features
eTown's community amenities center on Recharge — the master amenity campus with a resort-style pool and lap lanes, a fitness center, yoga lawn, event lawn, and dog park. One honest distinction most listings blur: the tennis and pickleball courts in eTown belong to Del Webb eTown's private 55+ clubhouse, not the master campus — Recharge is the amenity set every eTown resident gets. The broader community is designed around walkability and sustainable infrastructure — rare for a Duval County master-planned development. Nearby, Chuze Fitness is about 2 miles away for additional fitness options, and Deerwood Country Club is roughly 3 miles out for those interested in private club access. TPC Sawgrass, one of the most recognized tournament courses in the country, is about 7 miles from the community — a draw for golfers who want proximity without living directly on a course.
Location
eTown Location & Commute
eTown sits in the Southside/Baymeadows corridor of Jacksonville, positioned conveniently between I-295 and the beaches. Ponte Vedra Beach is roughly 9 miles east — about 15 to 20 minutes in typical traffic — and Jacksonville Beach and Mickler's Landing are within about 10 miles as well. Baptist Medical Center South is approximately 3 to 4 miles away, and Mayo Clinic Florida is about 5 miles out, making the community well-positioned for healthcare access. St. Johns Town Center and the Markets at Town Center are both within about 4 to 5 miles for retail and dining, and the St. Augustine Historic District is roughly 25 miles south for a day trip.

Testimonials
What Krista's Clients Say
“Krista was fabulous! We relocated to the Jacksonville area from Louisiana during the COVID 19 pandemic. We had never even been to Jacksonville, and traveling to the area was not an option at the time. Krista took the time to understand the needs and interests of our family and what it was important for us to be close to. She gave honest feedback about several areas we had been considering having looked online only, and now that we are settled in I am so happy we took her advice. During the inspection and closing process, Krista was in constant contact with us and quickly provided insight and knowledge on real estate proceedings in Florida. After moving in, she referred us to several contractors as we made updates to our home. They have all done a super job. We will use her again when it is time for us to grow and go!”
“Krista Fracke and her staff are wonderful to work with and very knowledgeable of the housing market in Northeast Florida. She is very helpful with sell price determination, staging your home, and negotiations. She educates you on your current home sell and future sells. One of our homes sold in 24 hours and the last one in 2 months at the rise of Covid 19. We had a great experience at a time that is very stressful.”
eTown FAQ
What are the HOA fees in eTown, and are there CDD fees as well?
HOA fees in eTown depend on the section: Kettering's townhomes carry roughly $240 a month on current listings, while Edison's single-family homes run about $357 a quarter — different products, different associations. As a master-planned community with high-tech infrastructure and resort amenities, every eTown home also carries a Cypress Bluff CDD (Community Development District) assessment on the Duval County tax bill, separate from the HOA fee, varying by product and lot and by any prior bond prepayment — buyers should ask the builder or community's management company for the full breakdown of monthly costs before making an offer, since the combined figure is what matters for budgeting.
What types of homes are available in eTown Jacksonville?
eTown spans seven named sections with genuinely different products: townhomes in Kettering and Newton (roughly the $400s–$500s), single-family from the $500s up through Edison's Toll Brothers luxury tier past $1.1 million, and the age-restricted Del Webb eTown with its own clubhouse world. What's on the market at any moment shifts with builder phases and the young resale wave. Because eTown is still an actively developing master-planned community, the mix of available home types and price points can shift as new phases are released.
How far is eTown from the beach?
eTown is about 9 miles from Ponte Vedra Beach and Mickler's Landing, and roughly 10 miles from Jacksonville Beach — typically a 15 to 20 minute drive depending on traffic. Neptune Beach is also within about 10 to 11 miles, so residents have several beach options within a short drive.
How much is my home in eTown worth?
There’s no automated estimate on this site, on purpose — algorithms average a zip code, and your value turns on the specifics an average can’t see: condition, position, and what the last few eTown sales actually closed for. Every new listing and MLS-recorded sale in eTown surfaces on this page as it happens, so following it is the simplest way to watch your comp set move. When you want a real number, Krista prepares it personally against eTown’s own sales — no algorithm guesses, no obligation.
How long does it take to sell a home in eTown?
It depends on the market you list into, not the market you read about — and this page tracks eTown’s pace the honest way, from live MLS activity rather than a static average. The market snapshot above reflects what’s actually happening here right now, and it shifts: the answer in a tight-inventory spring is different from a heavy-inventory fall. Before we ever set a price or a timeline, I read eTown’s current pace — days on market, how recent sales closed against their list prices, and what your home’s specific competition looks like the week we launch.
What does it cost to sell a home in eTown?
A few lines beyond the obvious ones. In eTown, plan on: the commission you and Krista agree on, Florida’s documentary stamp tax on the deed, title and closing charges per local custom, the association’s estoppel letter — and because this community carries a district assessment, the CDD line is prorated at closing and must be disclosed to your buyer, which is a paperwork step, not a penalty. Priced and disclosed correctly, it never kills a deal; handled sloppily, it stalls one. Krista runs the full seller’s net sheet against eTown’s actual cost structure before you commit to a number.
