Inside Eagle Harbor

Let’s talk about a beautiful resort-style community nestled in Fleming Island, a small bedroom town, Eagle Harbor. We will share a brief history of the community, showcase the amenity center, what this community has to offer, the location and of course our favorite some residential real estate information. We will also share what we love most about this community.

The community of Eagle Harbor is Clay County's first development of regional impact. This community was a creative genius of East West Partners Inc, who has an impressive portfolio, to say the least. Their goal was to create a community with a small town feel that included the Eagle Harbor residential neighborhoods and about 1.3 million square feet of retail space. This $150 million plan development sits on 3000 acres.

Eagle Harbor is also known as a CDD community, which stands for Community Development District. A CDD provides a solution to provide valuable community infrastructure generated by growth and ultimately without overburdening other governments and their tax payers.

So what do you get in this master plan resort-style city community? Eagle Harbor has three waterparks. You have the swim park, which boasts waterslides, splash park, lap pool with cabana rentals for private events and parties which are at your disposal next to the swim park. You also have tennis courts where you can schedule private lessons for you and the family. And since this center is located on Doctors Lake, you also have a beautiful dock with serene views of Doctors Lake.

The community also has 17 playgrounds and five docks sprinkled throughout Eagle Harbor. And if golf is your thing, you're in luck. Eagle Harbor Golf Club is smack dab in the center of the community and offers special rates for Eagle Harbor residents. Another cool thing about this community is that it's a golf cart friendly community, and it allows golf carts to be driven within the roads in Eagle Harbor community. You could throw your kids in the golf cart, drop them off at school while still making tee time with your friends. So now let's talk about location.

Location is central in Fleming Island and you are nearby plenty of shopping and great dining. You'll notice that a lot of your neighbors are military since NAS Jacksonville is only about 15 to 20 minutes north of here. And I-295 is about a ten minute drive right north of here as well. Fleming Island has the best schools in Clay County, with the next best being St. John's County in regards to the quality of schools. It's no wonder people strongly consider Fleming Island when you put into consideration the prices here in Fleming Island versus St John's, because ultimately you get the great schools plus better priced homes and an established quiet community.

So what do I love most about Eagle Harbor? Eagle Harbor to me just feels complete. So there's a lot of communities out there that are new. They have the new roads, new trees, new houses, everything is new. And there's something unique about this community as massive as it is, as complete as it is. You have mature trees, mature foliage, and it just feels like home.

Now, let's talk about the residential real estate in Eagle Harbor. Eagle Harbor has some beautiful homes like this one right here listed at $590k. It is a five bedroom, three bathroom, 2700 square foot home.

The community homes are well-built and it's just not cookie cutter like some of the other communities that you see, especially if they're newer the houses seem to have a little bit more personality, in my opinion, than other communities outside of the area.
