Forest Hills Gardens is located between Ada Drive and Hall Street just
west of Forest Hills Central High School. This well established
development of about 200 homes was built in the 1960's and 1970's
with a few of the homes bordering on Paradise Lake, pictured below.
Many of the homes are still occupied by their original owners, though
the neighborhood is starting to turn over with younger families being
attracted to the quiet neighborhood in an excellent location, close to
local public and private schools. It is literally walking distance to
Forest Hills Central Middle and High Schools. Ada Christian is a short
distance away on Ada Drive and Forest Hills & 28th Street shopping
are just minutes away by car.
