February 10, 2010
Paradise Gardens a subdivision by Al Beadle on the north side of the Phoenix Mountains, one with a fervent following.
The Paradise Gardens subdivision in North East Phoenix is an Al Beadle designed subdivision. It is the only residential subdivision designed by Al Beadle. Its located north of Mountain View Rd between 36th St and 32nd St.

The subdivision, just like several others of similar nature, was popular when it first opened 50 years ago and now, with the
revival of interest in modern architecture, the area has become popular with design
professionals,
builders and aficionados who have found a perfect canvas for their
outlay.
Mid Century modern homes are popular for not unusual reasons: they are simply a perfect match for the desert landscape and atmosphere.
Some of the highlights of the subdivision
- Great location near
the Phoenix mountains
Mountains views. - Large lots - they seem to be just right in size for most people.
- Al Beadle Design.
- Great looking buildings with lots of potential.
- Unique human sized architecture.
- Mid-Century Modern design which is experiencing a resurgence.
- Original compared to the stucco track homes of many neighborhoods
- No HOA - make the home your own - drive the subdivision to see some excellent remodels.
- Vibrant community.
- Affection toward the homes from owners.
The neighborhood has an intriguing history and some question the extent of Al Beadles involvements in Paradise Gardens.
Homes are usually 2-3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and a median size of 1,500sf. Most have a 2 car carports but m

any have made them into garages.
How did these homes look originally? Take a look at the Howell Home at Modern Phoenix.
The
resurgence of interest in Phoenix’s mid century modern architecture
means that such homes are in demand.
This demand
for a limited stock has increased prices a lot, despite the waning
market we are in. Because good examples of mid century modern are of
limited supply and more people are discovering them, they have
additional value which will help keep prices up.
Not everyone will like these homes, but for those interested in modern homes, this is one of only a few such places left and you can make the home yours as many still require renovation, just expect to pay a premium compared to other ranch homes.
