Paradise Gardens is an active 55-and-over community in Margate
Paradise Gardens is a 55-and-over community with over 1,000 single-story homes split into four subdivisions. Each subdivision of this Margate neighborhood has its own home-owners association and clubhouse, where residents often gather to play cards, swim at the pool or host events. Residences are typically one-story with smaller manicured lawns and palm trees out front, with maintenance taken care of by an association. Most homes also back onto a canal, with small docks allowing for quick boating and fishing access. The community is also close to Margate’s parks, golf courses and shopping destinations. “Its name does it justice. It’s paradise,” says John Donohoo, president of Paradise Gardens Section IV HOA and a resident for over 10 years.
