A Lennar community on the Northside at Gold Star Family Parkway — in the MLS its early sections list as Seaton Creek Reserve. The city’s Q3 2026 approvals cleared phases five through nine: 406 more homes toward a planned 443, on 50- and 60-foot lots, with about five acres of recreation space in the plan.

Day-to-day life in Seaton Creek puts Jacksonville International Airport about 3 miles away — a real convenience for anyone who travels frequently or has family coming to visit.

The Homes
Seaton Creek Homes & Architecture
Homes in Seaton Creek run from the mid-$300s to the mid-$400s and are exclusively single-family, built between 2024 and 2026 in Ranch and Traditional styles. Typical floor plans offer 3 to 4 bedrooms and 2 to 3 bathrooms across roughly 1,700 to 2,650 square feet, with a median around 2,000 square feet. Lennar's standard package here includes quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, ceramic wood-plank tile, and 42-inch upper cabinets — finishes that buyers in this price range don't always find included elsewhere. Inside, open floorplans with kitchen islands, split bedroom layouts, walk-in closets, and smart thermostats are common, and a number of homes feature 2-car garages. The reliable way to know the fees here is per home. I confirm current association and district numbers before you write an offer.
Amenities
Seaton Creek Amenities & Community Features
Seaton Creek's community amenities center on a resort-style pool, clubhouse, and fitness center — a package that's already in place for residents rather than something still being built out. Outdoor courts for both tennis and pickleball add active recreation options, and a playground is part of the plan alongside the approximately five acres of recreation space included in the approved phases. Sidewalks and curbs run throughout the community, and the HOA covers trash pickup and cable TV, with off-site professional management handling day-to-day operations.
Location
Seaton Creek Location & Commute
Seaton Creek sits on Jacksonville's Northside along Gold Star Family Parkway, placing Jacksonville International Airport about 3 miles away — one of the most convenient airport distances you'll find in any residential community in the metro. Downtown Jacksonville is roughly 14 miles south, and the beaches at Atlantic Beach and Neptune Beach are about 20 to 22 miles east. UF Health Jacksonville, the region's Level I trauma center, is about 12 miles away, while Ascension St. Vincent's Riverside and Baptist Medical Center Jacksonville are each around 15 miles south. What surprises people when they look at this location is how quickly you can get to major highways — I-95 access makes the Southside, Riverside, and even the beach corridors genuinely manageable from here.

Questions
Frequently Asked Questions about Seaton Creek
How close is Seaton Creek to Jacksonville International Airport?
Jacksonville International Airport is about 3 miles from Seaton Creek — close enough that many residents can reach it in under 10 minutes in normal traffic. That's one of the more practical location advantages of the Northside, especially for frequent travelers.
What are HOA fees like in Seaton Creek?
The reliable way to know the fees here is per home. I confirm current association and district numbers before you write an offer. The HOA covers trash pickup, cable TV, and off-site community management, so it's worth factoring that range into your monthly budget alongside the mortgage. I'd recommend confirming the exact fee for any specific plan you're considering, since it can differ across the development's phases.
Is Seaton Creek still under construction?
Yes — Seaton Creek is an active Lennar development. The city approved phases five through nine in 2026, adding over 400 homes toward a planned build-out of roughly 443 total. That means buyers can choose from both recently completed move-in-ready homes and homes still under construction, depending on timing and preference. Delivery timelines vary by phase, so it's worth asking the builder for current completion estimates on any specific plan.
