Community Overview & History
A gated Baymeadows community
Stonebridge sits on East Baymeadows Road in the Baymeadows area of Jacksonville's Southside, a value hub of condo and townhome communities near the St. Johns Town Center, UNF, the Mayo corridor, and Deerwood. It is one of the area's gated communities.
Condos and garaged townhomes
The community pairs condominium floor plans with townhomes that include attached one-car garages, built with maintenance-free vinyl siding, which gives buyers two attached-home options behind one gate.
The Homes
Stonebridge is a gated community of condos and townhomes, so the choice is mostly between the condo floor plans and the garaged townhomes, and the building or location within the community.
The condominiums
Three condominium floor plans from about 1,050 to 1,408 square feet make up much of the community, popular with first-time buyers and investors.
The townhomes
Townhomes with attached one-car garages sit at the upper end of the community and appeal to buyers who want covered parking and a bit more space.
Real Estate Market
Stonebridge is a value gated community. Pricing runs in line with the Baymeadows condo and townhome market, generally in the $200,000s to low $300,000s depending on whether a home is a condo or a garaged townhome and its condition. Confirm current pricing for a specific home.
For county context, the NEFAR April 2026 report put the Duval County median single-family price at about $332,500, a county-wide figure. As attached homes in Baymeadows, Stonebridge prices below that, which is its draw for value buyers and investors.
Who Lives Here
Stonebridge draws first-time buyers, downsizers, professionals near UNF and the Mayo corridor, and investors who want a gated, low-maintenance home with amenities and utilities included at a value price.
Schools
Stonebridge is served by Duval County Public Schools. In Duval the strongest schools are a mix of zoned neighborhood schools and application magnets, and middle and high assignments are not reliable from a community name alone. Confirm the current zoning for a specific address with the district locator at duvalschools.org before you buy. See the best schools in Duval County guide for the rankings and how zones affect prices.
Amenities & Lifestyle
Stonebridge carries a fuller amenity package than most attached-home communities, with utilities folded into the fee.
Clubhouse, pool, and fitness
The community has a clubhouse with a big-screen TV, a swimming pool, a fitness center, and a car wash area.
Nature trails and covered parking
Nature trails for walking and jogging and assigned covered parking round out the community, with shopping and the Town Center minutes away.
HOA, CDD & Costs
Stonebridge carries a monthly association fee that notably includes water, sewer, and exterior pest control, along with access to the clubhouse, pool, and fitness room. Confirm the current fee, exactly what it covers, and the reserve funding for a specific home in writing.
On a condo or townhome community, ask about reserves, any planned special assessments, and the rental rules, since Florida condo law has tightened reserve requirements. Confirm the master insurance and condo-approved financing before you commit.
