Country Glen
Million-dollar homes
Mediterranean and Spanish Revival architecture line the streets of Country Glen, featuring barrel roof tiles, arches and stucco siding. These single-family homes were built in the late 1990s through the early to mid-2000s. “The homes are on plots at least a quarter acre,” Williams says. “Some homes have up to an acre or more.” All Country Glen residences have at least three bedrooms, and many have more than five. “On the low end of the price range, you’re looking at $900,000. On the high end, it will be 1.6 or 1.7 million,” Williams says. The middle ground price of 1.3 million will get a two-story house with five bedrooms and over 4,000 square feet. The monthly homeowners association fee is $250 and includes area maintenance, cable TV, and access to the features of the community park.A park inside and one outside the gated community
Within the gated community of Country Glen is a neighborhood park featuring a playground, basketball court, sand volleyball courts, tennis courts and green space. The entrance is in the western part of the neighborhood, off Parkside Terrace. It’s a short 4-mile drive south on Flamingo Road to get to the 300-acre C.B. Smith Park, which includes the Paradise Cove Water Park, open from March to October. There are two water playgrounds, a lazy river and the Paradise Pipeline, a 50-foot structure with four waterslide entrances. There are also campsites at the park, picnic areas, sand volleyball courts and a 10-court lighted tennis center. The AllGolf Center offers a driving range, a miniature golf course and even batting cages.Environmentally aware young students
Kids in Country Glen can be a part of the Broward County School District, including starting at Griffin Elementary School, where fourth and fifth graders can be a part of the ECO Patrol and pick up recycling around the school once a month. The school gets an A-minus Niche rating. The same A-minus grade is achieved by Silver Trail Middle School, which has over 1,300 students in sixth through eighth grade. Cooper City High gets a perfect A-plus Niche grade and has a 99% graduation rate. There are a couple of private schools close by. Archbishop McCarthy High School is a Roman Catholic coeducational school of the Archdiocese of Miami. Temple Beth Emet School is a top-rated school that teaches general and Judaic courses.Tea time
For a bit of high class, there’s Vienna Café and Bistro on Flamingo Road, simulating the feel of a European Café. They allow reservations for their British High Tea service for large parties. There’s more than tea, as they serve soup, salad, and a three-tiered dish with tuna and cucumber sandwiches, pastries and fruit. The Southwest Ranches Farmers Market has been a community staple since 2009. At this open-air market, open Tuesday through Sunday, customers purchase raw dairy, organic produce and organic grass-fed meats from local vendors. Walmart Supercenter is another grocery destination near Flamingo and Griffin Roads. Pembroke Lakes Mall is 4 miles south on Flamingo Road, with over 120 stores.Car dependent neighborhood
Sidewalks are within the gated community of Country Glen, but a car is needed outside the gates. Broward County Transit bus lines have stops on Stirling Road. It’s an 11-mile trek to the Sheridan Street Tri-Rail commuter train station. The Fort Lauderdale Brightline station, which provides rail service to Miami to the south and Orlando to the north, is 17 miles away. The beaches are 20 miles to the east.

GreatSchools:
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
