What It's Like to Live in Sandy Shores
Sandy Shores places you within a short drive of some of Jacksonville's most compelling destinations — Treaty Oak Park, with its 250-year-old landmark oak and quiet riverfront setting, is about four miles away, and the Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens is roughly two and a half miles north.

The Homes
Sandy Shores Homes & Architecture
Homes in Sandy Shores are single-family residences built around 1985, typically offering around 3,800 square feet of living space with five bedrooms and four bathrooms. Every home in the neighborhood is waterfront, which is the defining characteristic of the street. Prices have been running from the upper $700s into the mid-$800s. The inventory here is small and relatively consistent in scale, so buyers generally aren't choosing between wildly different size tiers — it's a tight, specific product type.
