Sumerlin at Bartram Park
Homes for Sale in Jacksonville, FL

Per bartrampark.com data fetched in June 2026, Sumerlin townhomes were estimated around 350,000 to 370,000 dollars; that is a portal estimate, not closed-sale data, so confirm against live MLS comps before you anchor on it. The terrace homes trade above the townhomes, and no reliable third-party figure was published for them at publish time.

The townhomes are the attainable entry product, while the terrace homes draw buyers who want the garage and courtyard of a home that lives like a small single-family house.

Bartram Park has heavy attached-home supply, so Sumerlin competes with a dozen neighboring communities; the gate, the block construction, and the terrace-home product are its differentiators.

Sumerlin is one gate and two very different homes, so the first decision is product, and the second is position.

Around 1,300 square feet, typically 2 bedrooms plus a loft and 2.5 baths; this is the entry product, estimated around 350,000 to 370,000 dollars per bartrampark.com data fetched in June 2026, treat that as an estimate and confirm against live comps.

The larger product, about 1,867 to 1,996 square feet with 2 to 3 bedrooms, a 2-car garage, and a courtyard; they live like small single-family homes and trade at a premium over the townhomes.

Units backing water or preserve carry view premiums on resale; interior and parking-facing units are the value entries.

The community is 15 to 20 years old, so original kitchens and baths versus renovated ones create a real price gap; comp accordingly.

The amenity package is solid for the corridor, and the gate plus the lakes are what the dues are buying.

Controlled access, which much of the Bartram Park attached-home stock also offers, but it remains a real filter for buyers and renters.

The community gathering anchor with an on-site gym.

A pool you can actually swim laps in, not just a splash zone.

The outdoor social space, set against the lake views.

Durbin Park, with its big-box anchors and restaurant row, is about ten minutes south, the Bartram Park Boulevard corridor covers groceries and daily errands, and St. Johns Town Center is the regional run about twenty minutes north.

Most portal searches lump Sumerlin in as a townhome community, but the terrace homes, nearly 2,000 square feet with a 2-car garage and courtyard, are a different animal that rarely gets searched correctly, which can mean less competition when one lists.

Concrete-block first floors are not universal in Bartram Park attached product; insurers and inspectors notice, and it is a quiet resale advantage worth putting in the listing copy.

In a 15 to 20 year old gated community, the HOA budget and reserve study tell you more about future costs than the current dues do; serious buyers read them before the inspection period ends.

Jacksonville sees coastal, river, and creek flooding, and pockets near the St. Johns River tributaries can sit in higher-risk zones. Jacksonville participates in the FEMA Community Rating System at a class 6, which earns flood-insurance discounts of about 10 percent for homes outside a special flood hazard area and about 20 percent for homes inside one.

The reliable move is to pull the FEMA flood designation for the exact Sumerlin at Bartram Park address before you write an offer, since two homes in the same area can fall in different zones. A home in Zone X can cost far less to insure than one near water in Zone AE. Get a bindable flood and homeowners quote during your inspection period, so the cost is in your monthly math before you commit, not after.

The Jacksonville metro is served by Xfinity (Comcast) cable across nearly all addresses and by AT&T with DSL almost everywhere plus fiber to a growing share of homes. If working from home matters, confirm the options, and fiber in particular, at the specific Sumerlin at Bartram Park address rather than assuming.

Duval County total millage runs roughly 17.9 to 18.5 mills depending on the taxing district. The Florida homestead exemption for 2026 is 51,411 dollars for those who qualify, and the deadline to file a new homestead exemption is March 1.

The trap to plan for is the post-sale reset: when you buy, the Save Our Homes cap from the previous owner ends and the assessed value resets to the new just value, so your second-year tax bill is often higher than the seller current one. Budget the true number, and confirm whether the specific home carries a CDD or other assessment that is billed separately from the millage and is not reduced by the homestead exemption.

Within the Bartram Park corridor, Sumerlin competes with a dozen neighboring attached-home communities, including the Williams Walk and Twinleaf condos and other townhome pods. Against pure townhome communities, Sumerlin wins on the larger terrace-home option, the concrete-block first floors, and the gated, lake-set amenities, and it trades away the simplicity of a single-product community.

Against detached single-family Bartram Park product, Sumerlin wins on price of entry and low-maintenance living, and loses the private yard and the larger square footage. Its quiet edge over much of the corridor is the block construction and the terrace-home product that rarely gets searched correctly, which can mean less competition when one lists.

Sumerlin fits the buyer who wants a gated, block-built, low-maintenance home at Bartram Park value and who will pick the product, townhome or terrace home, before chasing a deal. If the garage and courtyard of a terrace home, the concrete-block construction, and a lake-set gated setting matter more than a private yard, Sumerlin offers something most of the corridor does not.
