New Homes in Orange Park, FL

This city on the St. Johns River is the perfect mix of rural beauty and suburban convenience. But it's more than that. If you have your children's future at heart, Orange Park is a great place to raise a family. Local schools are some of the best in the area: Orange Park Elementary School earned a perfect 10 from GreatSchools.org, and another Orange Park school, Robert M. Paterson Elementary, scored a near-perfect 9.

Parents cite the culture of the schools-- with good parental involvement, and student-teacher interaction-- as the reason behind the ascension of Orange Park elementary schools to the top of the educational heap. Private schools, such as Orange Park Christian Academy, serve parents who desire private or religious instruction for their children.

Life in Orange Park isn't just about what happens during the school day. Residents play just as hard as they work, at the area's acclaimed golf courses. Take your family out for a day on the greens at Eagle Harbor Golf Club or the Golf Club at Fleming Island.

If you enjoy water sports, this is also the place to be. Here are forty-six square miles of freshwater, perfect for discovery by the intrepid kayaker or jet-skier. Although the main attraction is the St. Johns River, don't underestimate the entertainment factor of Lake Asbury, Doctor's Lake, and Kingsley Lake. Whether you bring a boat or a canoe, you're sure to have a wonderful time enjoying the best of Orange Park's natural resources.

If you and your significant other need a night out, with or without the kids, your likely destination is the Thrasher-Horne Center for the Arts. Here you can unwind and watch musical acts and classic musical theatre shows. Recent productions include Sleeping Beauty and Fiddler on the Roof; the Jacksonville Symphony is also known to perform.

If you're moving to the Jacksonville area with a family in tow, Orange Park is a wonderful place to live. New Home Source is pleased to help you find your Florida dream home.
