The homes on this page sit in the orbit of J. Allen Axson Elementary School, a Duval County Public Schools campus in Jacksonville's San Marco area, just south of Downtown across the St. Johns River. Axson is known as a dedicated magnet elementary with a Montessori program, drawing families from across the city to this historic near-downtown neighborhood. San Marco itself was laid out in the 1920s on the former plantation lands south of the river, and its streets hold a mix of Mediterranean revival, Tudor and traditional homes around San Marco Square's shops and restaurants. Riverfront parks line the bank nearby, and the bridges put the downtown skyline, the Southbank medical centers and the sports district only minutes away. Homes in this part of Jacksonville range from preserved 1920s houses to updated residences on tree-lined blocks. Browse current homes for sale near J. Allen Axson Elementary below.
