Gran Paradiso
What it costs, what it charges, and what is for sale — Gran Paradiso in Venice, Florida.
The short version
Living in Gran Paradiso
Gran Paradiso is the Tuscan-themed resort community of the Wellen Park corridor: Lennar-built homes from the mid-2010s around a grand amenity campus — resort pool, fitness center, saunas and steam rooms, tennis and pickleball — behind a gate that looks like an Italian estate entrance. The number to read carefully is the monthly one: fees here carry the amenity load, and most listings also sit in a CDD, which rides the tax bill on top.
