Golden Gate Estates: Room to Breathe, Minutes from Naples

If you have ever wished for a little more space between you and the neighbors, Golden Gate Estates is worth a look. Spread across a large area of Collier County east of Naples, "the Estates" is known for something that is hard to find in Southwest Florida: land.

The community was laid out in the late 1950s and 1960s by the Gulf American Land Corporation, which marketed it at the time as the "world's largest subdivision." The land was platted into a grid of roads and canals, with lots of roughly 1¼, 2½, and 5 acres. Today the northern part of the Estates covers more than 53,500 acres and more than 23,800 lots. Most are single-family homes or vacant land intended for one.

That history is what makes Golden Gate Estates special today. Buyers come here for room for a big garden, a workshop, a pool and outdoor kitchen, horses where permitted, or simply quiet. Homes range from older Florida ranches to brand-new custom builds, and the large supply of vacant lots makes the Estates a favorite for people who want to build their own home or invest in land.

Main roads like Golden Gate Boulevard, Immokalee Road, and Randall Boulevard connect the Estates to shopping, schools, and I-75. Downtown Naples and the Gulf beaches are an easy drive away when you want them.
