Mar-Len Gardens

Mar-Len Gardens is a low-rise, garden-style cooperative community built in 1964 consisting of three-story residential buildings housing one- and two-bedroom units. The development presents mid-century courtyard planning with walk-up and elevator access to modestly sized units that often feature screened balconies or patios, closet-rich sleeping areas, and practical kitchens and baths. Common on-site facilities are extensive for the building’s scale and include two swimming pools, a fitness room, sauna, billiards and game rooms, a library, shuffleboard and tennis courts, covered outdoor barbecues, courtyards and landscaped pathways. The property is gated and oriented toward older adults: it operates as a HOPA-verified, 55+ co-op with a ground-lease component; maintenance fees typically cover taxes, insurance, water and basic cable. Parking and interior accessibility accommodate residents with mobility needs. Management-enforced rules limit rentals, prohibit corporate buyers and usually restrict pets; sales frequently require cash and coordination with the co-op office. Located in North Miami Beach, the community sits a few miles from the shoreline and within walking distance of retail, restaurants and public transportation, offering an amenity-rich, social environment geared to active seniors.
