Queens Harbour Homes For Sale, Jacksonville

Day-to-day life in Queens Harbour revolves around the water and the club — mornings on the golf course, afternoons at the community pool or tennis courts, and evenings with neighbors at the clubhouse. When you venture beyond the gates, Keke's Breakfast Cafe is about 2 miles away and consistently draws a crowd, Safe Harbor Seafood Restaurant is roughly 3 miles out for waterfront dining, and the Publix at Seminole Shoppes is just over 3 miles for everyday groceries. Crunch Fitness in Harbour Village sits about 2 miles away for those who want a gym option outside the community's own fitness center, and Girvin Park and Abess Park offer green space within a couple of miles. For a broader day out, St. Johns Town Center is about 8 miles west, offering major retail and dining in one of Jacksonville's premier lifestyle centers.

Queens Harbour’s defining machine is its freshwater lock: a 120-acre protected lagoon where boats sit in fresh water — kinder to hulls than salt — with lock-through access to the Intracoastal and open Atlantic beyond. The community’s 59-slip marina serves owners whose homes aren’t on the water, while lagoon-front streets carry private docks (docks and dockage lead a third of current waterfront listings here). No other Northeast Florida community offers this combination, which is why boat-first buyers compare Queens Harbour less against neighborhoods and more against marina bills. Dock capacity, slip availability, and lock specs are lot-and-boat-specific — I verify all three against your actual boat before we write anything.

The boats get the headlines, but Queens Harbour Yacht & Country Club is equally a golf community — the course threads the lagoon system, and golf appears in listing remarks here as often as the marina does. Club membership is optional and separate from home ownership, which keeps the entry math flexible: association dues on current listings run about $913 a quarter for the gate and grounds, with club categories layered by choice. Homes span 1993–2012 construction, roughly 2,050 to 7,600 square feet, and three-car garages are closer to standard here than anywhere in the 32225 corridor. For buyers weighing Queens Harbour against the Deerwood-belt clubs, the difference is simple: those trade golf for golf — this one adds the Atlantic.

Homes in Queens Harbour are predominantly traditional and contemporary single-family residences built between the mid-1990s and mid-2000s, typically ranging from roughly 2,000 to over 7,500 square feet with four bedrooms being the most common configuration — though three- and five-bedroom homes appear regularly as well. Prices generally run from the high $600s to the low $7 millions, with the middle of the market sitting around $1.3 to $1.4 million. About half the homes sit on waterfront lots — many with private boat docks and Intracoastal or lagoon access — and just over half include a private pool, often with a lanai and outdoor kitchen. Inside, expect features like kitchen islands, split bedroom layouts, walk-in and his-and-hers closets, soaking tubs with separate showers, entrance foyers, and built-in details that reflect the custom character of many of these homes. A small number of townhomes also exist within the community, offering a lower-maintenance alternative at the entry end of the price range.

Queens Harbour is a fully gated community anchored by the Queen's Harbour Yacht & Country Club, which includes a championship golf course, private marina with boat slips, community pool, clubhouse, tennis courts, pickleball courts, and a fitness center — all within the gates. Sidewalks run throughout, and the community also includes a playground and maintenance of common grounds as part of the HOA structure. HOA fees are assessed quarterly and typically range from roughly $840 to $1,350 per quarter depending on the property — a meaningful cost to factor in, but one that reflects the breadth of amenities maintained on-site. In the years I've worked with buyers considering Queens Harbour, the marina and the walkability of the club amenities are consistently what separate this community from other gated options in the area.

Queens Harbour sits on Jacksonville's Southside near the Intracoastal Waterway, placing residents about 3 miles from Atlantic Beach and roughly 4 miles from Neptune Beach — close enough that the coast is a genuine part of daily life, not just a weekend trip. Mayo Clinic's Jacksonville campus is about 6 miles away, and Baptist Medical Center Beaches is similarly close at under 6 miles, which is a real convenience for those who want proximity to major healthcare. The Southside business corridor is reachable in under 20 minutes in typical traffic, and Jacksonville International Airport is roughly 18 miles north. St. Johns Town Center, Jacksonville's primary upscale retail and dining hub, is about 8 miles west for larger shopping runs.

Queens Harbour listings report Neptune Beach Elementary School, Landmark Middle School and Sandalwood High School, all in the Duval County Public Schools. School assignments are address-specific and change; confirm the zoning for any specific home with the district before you buy.
