All about Southwood & Bridgeview@Watermill in Jacksonville
Southwood & Bridgeview are two neighborhoods, that are connected to each other, and part of the Watermill master community. The first homes was built in 2001 and the last was 2015. It is part of the Argyle area of Jacksonville, right off of Blanding Blvd, close to 295. There is an HOA, which is managed by Leland Management. Their number is 904-483-3092. Click Watermill Master HOA for their website. The fees are $125 a quarter, which are very affordable for a community with amenities to enjoy. Check out pics of the amenity center at Watermill.
At one time, Argyle Forest Blvd was only two lanes. Traffic was brutal at 5pm. Argyle Forest Blvd actually ended before the Watermill master community. There’s more traffic now, due to all the new neighborhoods, but the 4 lanes make a huge difference. There is two ways to get to I295, well 3 actually. You can take Argyle Forest Blvd to Blanding, then north to hit 295, or take Youngerman Circle to Blanding, then go north. You can also hit Rampart to Collins, then go East and the ramps to 295 are just past the Walmart super center. Many military folks make Argyle their home due to the proximity to NAS Jax. Only 6 miles away. 17 miles away from downtown Jax.
Southwood & Bridgeview consists of @450 single family homes, with sizes starting around 1,500sq ft and up 3,400,square feet. They started in 2001 and finished in 2015. Check out the video below that shows the neighborhoods, plus some pics of the amenity center.
Shopping in Argyle Forest
You don’t have to travel far. You have a couple directions you can go. If you go towards Blanding, then go south into Orange Park. The Orange Park Mall is right there. You have two Home Depots to choose from. Two!!!!! How sweet is that? One across from the Orange Park Mall and one in Argyle/Oakleaf area, going away from Blanding. Next to Home Depot on Wells road is a store called At Home. Everything home, you can spend a good hour in there. Head north on Blanding and go under 295, you will find a Best Buy, Burlington Coat factory, Office Depot and alot more. Back to Argyle Forest Blvd and go west. Oakleaf Town Center has Kohls, Five Below, which has cool tshirts for $5 or less!!!! Nice quality. There’s a Target with a Starbucks inside, Home Depot, TJ Max and a Ross, Pinch A Penny and the list just keeps growing! Across from Oakleaf Town Center is Publix, where shopping is a pleasure. If you go back towards Blanding, but not out of Argyle, you will see another shopping center, where we have Winn Dixie and a few more places to eat.
Where to eat in Argyle Forest
I’m kinda a foodie and like to try different things, but then I also have my favorites too. There isn’t alot of choices that are mom and pop places, but there are alot of choices overall. Oakleaf Town Center has La Nopalera, which is very tasty Mexican food. There’s Chipolte, Mcd’s, Chick-Fil-A, your normal fast food places. Across the street is Gators Dockside, Firehouse Subs, Starbucks, First Watch and many more. I know I’m forgetting a bunch, but just go check them out for yourself.
