As of November 2026, Rose Garden in Cape Coral, FL has 1 home for sale. As of November 2026, the MLS records 2 closed sales in Rose Garden in Cape Coral, FL since 2026, the most recent in September 2026. Across Cape Coral as a whole, 5,180 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $379,025, 51 median days on market, with 226 homes for sale today. At that median and Lee County's FY2025-26 rate of 15.97 mills, annual property tax runs about $6,050 ($5,390 with the full homestead exemption).
Rose Garden's numbers tell a story of large, higher-end homes moving fast. A $850,000 median price paired with a median living area of 4,028 square feet points to a community built around bigger floor plans rather than starter product, and the $345.05 per-square-foot figure confirms buyers are paying a premium for that space and for homes built across a wide span of years, from 1964 through 2024, with a typical build year of 1997. A 9-day median days-on-market and a 38.8% year-over-year price move say this segment has been in demand.
For sellers, that combination of fast turnover and a sharp year-over-year gain argues for pricing with confidence rather than testing the market with a high ask. For buyers, a market heat score of 53 signals this is not a runaway frenzy across the board — it is a market where well-presented, correctly priced homes move quickly, but there is still room to negotiate on listings that are overpriced or need work. With 59.2% of homes carrying a homestead exemption, a majority of owners here have treated these as primary residences, which is worth noting when you think about how the inventory turns over.
Figures in this note are as of July 29, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.
The 60-Second Overview
Rose Garden is a Cape Coral community of roughly 1,692 homes spanning six decades of construction, anchored by large-format living space rather than a narrow price point — a profile that rewards buyers who know what they want and sellers who price to the moment.
Florida Gulf Coast MLS sales records identify 7 homes in Rose Garden that have changed hands since 2023, built between 1986 and 2026 (median 1998), with a median living area of about 2,076 sq ft and a typical 3-bedroom, 2-bath layout.

Who Rose Garden is best for.
Best for
- Buyers who want a large floor plan and are budgeting near the $850,000 median price point.
- Sellers with move-in ready, larger-format homes who want to price to a fast-moving, 9-day median market.
- Buyers comfortable evaluating a wide range of build years, from 1964 through 2024, and prioritizing condition over a fixed style.
Probably not for
- Buyers looking for a lower entry price point outside the $850,000 median range.
- Buyers who want bundled community amenities, since none are identified from current MLS listings here.
- Anyone expecting a slow, low-competition search — a 9-day median days-on-market means acting quickly matters.

The Rose Garden buying strategy.
If we were buying in Rose Garden today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.
Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.
Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.
Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.
Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.
Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in Rose Garden.
Space, Price, and Speed
The defining fact about Rose Garden is scale: a median living area over 4,000 square feet is well above what you'll find in most nearby communities, and it's the main reason the median price sits at $850,000. That size-driven pricing means the per-square-foot figure of $345.05 is a more useful yardstick for comparing individual listings than the headline price alone, especially given how much variation there is across a housing stock built anywhere from 1964 to 2024.
A median of 9 days on market is short by any measure, and it lines up with the 9-home closings window used for this snapshot — a small, active slice of the market rather than a large, slow-moving one. Combined with a 38.8% year-over-year price increase, the recent data suggests this segment has tightened noticeably, even though the overall market heat score of 53 keeps it out of extreme territory. No community amenities are identified from current MLS listings, so whatever draws buyers here is coming from the homes and lots themselves, not a clubhouse or gated package.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Rose Garden. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
