Oriole Gardens
Spend a day at Veterans Memorial Park
The neighborhood has multiple on-site amenities for residents to enjoy, with each condo complex having its own tennis courts, swimming pools and indoor clubhouse. Residents can peruse the stacks of books found at the library or shoot some pool in the billiards room. Veterans Memorial Park sits along the banks of the Stranahan River and honors the armed services with a brick memorial lined with plaques honoring Margate’s veterans. Boat ramps and a fishing dock are available for those looking to spend a day on the water, while the Cypress Creek Greenway Bicycle runs across the river and offers miles of trails next to the tranquil blue waters. Sports fields, including a baseball diamond, can be found next door at Oriole Park. Oriole Golf Club is a semi-private facility open to the public and features daily throw-in game opportunities throughout the week.Condominium complexes and pastel-colored ranchers
Housing is divided between condominium complexes and single-family subdivisions with multiple waterfront properties available. Oriole Gardens boasts three different condo buildings that were developed in the 1970s. One-bedroom units begin listing for $85,000, while larger two-bedroom units with updated renovations can top $230,000. “There are a lot of properties on the market right now,” Yeaman says. “It’s very unusual because it has flipped to a strong buyer’s market.” Beyond the complexes, pastel-colored ranchers sit on tree-lined streets with swimming pools in the back. Some houses come with scenic waterfront views as they rest along the banks of the Stranahan River. Single-family builds are priced between $400,000 and $600,000, and the majority of residents own their homes. The neighborhood is at risk for flood and hurricane damage due to its proximity to the coast. Broward County provides resources to understand the associated risks and information regarding flood and wind insurance.Coral Square Shopping Mall is nearby
Residents are close to the ample shopping and dining scenes of South Florida, including the Palm Lakes Plaza, which sits in the neighborhood. Just down the street, Coral Square Shopping Mall is a retail mecca featuring over 120 stores, 15 eateries and a movie theatre. Popular establishments are available closer to home, including Marco’s Pizza, a national Italian chain serving tasty pies and subs. The Publix Supermarket at Palm Lakes Plaza is undergoing renovations, but groceries can be found at Walmart Supercenter nearby. MedFlorida Centers Margate is one of multiple medical facilities in the area and is located 2 miles down Atlantic Boulevard.STEM Literacy Magnet at Margate Middle School
The Broward County Public School District is the second largest in the state of Florida and serves the neighborhood’s youngest residents. Atlantic West Elementary, Margate Middle School and Coconut Creek High School all received a C-plus rating from Niche. Margate Middle School offers a STEM Literacy magnet program and features a virtual science and mathematics learning lab. Coconut Creek High School partners with the Atlantic Technical College to provide career dual enrollment opportunities to students participating in the Creek Technical Academy Program. Calvary Christian Academy is a private school option for parents to consider.
Live music and community events
Residents of the condo complexes gather by the pool every third Saturday of the month for an evening of barbeque and good times. While this may be just a community event, all residents are close to the numerous celebrations the city of Margate puts on throughout the year. Sounds at Sundown is a popular concert series featuring live music and food trucks. Residents are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and blankets for an evening filled with singing and dancing under the Florida moonlight.
Equidistant to city centers
Atlantic Boulevard is the main thoroughfare and has multiple bus stops serviced by the Broward County Transit. Boca Raton and Fort Lauderdale are each 15 miles away. Those traveling farther can head 20 miles south to Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport, which offers several domestic and international destinations.
