All about Argyle Forest East Village
Argyle Forest East Village is the original part of Argyle, which has turned into a large community, right off of Blanding Blvd, close to 295. There is no HOA in AFEV, except in Heather Ridge & Long Meadow, which are their own little communities within Argyle Forest East Village.This is not a master community where all the neighborhoods have the same HOA and amenities.
At one time, Argyle Forest Blvd was only two lanes. Traffic was brutal at 5pm. 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.
For the most part, AFEV consists of single family homes, except for Heather Ridge (Prestwick Circle), which is a small circle of townhomes, that does have a HOA. The Cam Team manages the HOA, their number is 904-278-2338. Long Meadow is closer to Youngerman Circle and are considered town homes as well. Their HOA is managed by Kingdom Management at 904-646-2626. Long Meadow community does have a community pool.
There about 700 single family homes in the AFEV area, with sizes starting around 893 sq ft and up almost 2,700 square feet. A few were built in the late 70s, but most were built in the 80s, up to 1991. Check out the video below that shows a part of the neighborhood, so you can see how nice they are and without an HOA to boot. This video covers the part to the right, if you’re coming from Blanding.

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.

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.
