Along Florida’s Northeast coast and into its quiet hinterlands, this quintet captures a lifestyle-first approach to luxury. Oceanfront balconies in Jacksonville Beach and a 2025 studs-out rebuild in Sawgrass celebrate Atlantic light and views, while a fairway-front residence in The Plantation at Ponte Vedra leans into club living. On the bay in gated Windward, a spacious, winged layout and dock invite easy entertaining. Farther inland, a 172-acre Laurel Hill estate offers trails, stables, and recreation-ready privacy.
