Barrington Oaks is an established single-family neighborhood in the Mandarin area of Jacksonville, in Duval County, built mainly between 1983 and 1993. Recent listings describe homes generally running roughly 2,013 to 2,731 square feet with 3 to 5 bedrooms, which skews larger than a lot of comparable Mandarin-era resale product.

County records show 6 qualified sales in Barrington Oaks across 2024–2025 (5 in 2024, 1 in 2025), median $499,900 — the last recorded sale per parcel on the Florida DOR 2025 assessment roll, independent of the MLS.
The neighborhood is organized under the Barrington Oaks Owners Association, and homes sit along Barrington Oaks Drive near Hood Road, close to Mandarin Middle School. Because this is a resale market rather than new construction, each home trades on its own condition, updates, and lot position, so buyers should confirm current HOA dues, what they cover, and the exact year built and square footage on the specific parcel before making an offer.
The bigger picture is location. Barrington Oaks sits just off the I-295 and San Jose Boulevard corridor in Mandarin, a well-established south Jacksonville area, which gives residents reasonably direct access to downtown Jacksonville and the wider Southside without the price tag of newer construction elsewhere in the county. That built-out Mandarin position, at a larger average home size than a lot of neighboring resale stock, is the core of the value case here.
