Gran Paradiso is a gated, Tuscan-inspired community inside Wellen Park in Venice, with single-family homes, villas, townhomes and coach homes. Life here centers on the clubhouse: a resort-style pool, tennis and pickleball courts, a fitness center, library and a full social calendar, from line dancing and garden club to holiday parties. Downtown Wellen, CoolToday Park and the Gulf beaches are all a short drive away.

I've lived in Gran Paradiso since 2017, and I follow every sale here. If you're thinking about buying or selling in the neighborhood, I'm happy to share what homes are actually selling for, what the HOA covers, and how the different home styles compare. No pressure, just a neighbor who knows the community.
