Gran Meadows is a residential subdivision with a flair for the original.
You will not find "cookie cutter" homes here! Every home is built with quality. The neighbors are very skilled in keeping their outdoor landscapes neatly manicured, and healthy in appearance.
Many of these homes have lovely, mature trees, and shrubs, making it a paradise for local and migratory birds. It is not uncommon to see a few wading birds, and colorful songbirds year-round.
If you are wishing to avoid neighborhoods with narrow streets and skinny, cheaply-planted trees, Gran Meadows does not disappoint. The streets are quiet morning, noon, and night. You may wave at a passing "dog-walker", or other friendly neighbors.
Once, when a neighbor fell down in the street (tangled in her pet's leash), many neighbors were immediately on hand to offer kind assistance, providing her with water, and comfort until an ambulance arrived. A Jacksonville city emergency team seemed to appear without delay, and at-the-ready offering the appropriate medical attention.
Gran Meadows is so nice to come home to at the end of a long working day. It is nestled in Mandarin, a beautiful part of Jacksonville that still possesses a "small town feel". What a gem of a place to call "HOME"!
