Marigold in Davie: The New Construction Guide (Floor Plans, Pricing, What to Know)
If you’re searching marigold davie new construction, here’s the answer up front: Marigold is Pulte Homes’ new gated single-family community at 5022 Caladium Way in Davie, off Griffin Road, currently selling from $1,335,990, with four floor plans ranging from 2,483 to 5,248 air-conditioned square feet. It’s part of Pulte’s Signature Collection, which is the builder’s estate-level product line, and it’s built on lakeview homesites inside a managed HOA. That’s the short version. The longer version, the one that actually matters when you’re about to sign a contract in the $1.3 to $2.2 million range, takes some unpacking.
This guide walks through what’s actually being built at Marigold, the floor plan lineup, real pricing (including where the quick move-in discounts are right now), the HOA and CDD reality, the location tradeoffs of building in this part of Davie, and how to approach the builder so you don’t leave money or leverage on the table.
Marigold in Davie: New Construction Overview
Marigold sits in central Broward County, just off Griffin Road, which puts it a short drive from both I-595 and the Florida Turnpike. Davie has quietly become one of the more active new construction corridors in Broward over the last two years, and Marigold is one of three notable communities currently building in the immediate area, alongside Vineyards and Estates by Turnberry.
Pulte is building Marigold as a gated community with a contemporary farmhouse architectural direction, and it’s explicitly positioned in the Signature Collection, not Pulte’s standard production line. That distinction matters. Signature Collection homes carry more upgraded standard finishes and larger floor plans than what you’d find in a typical Pulte community, which is part of why the starting price sits above $1.3 million rather than in the $500,000 to $700,000 range Pulte often builds at elsewhere in Broward.
The community is currently marked “Now Selling,” and Pulte’s on-site team (Elli, Pam, and Clancy, as of this writing) is handling walk-ins seven days a week from 9 to 5. You can reach the sales office at (954) 280-1005, or text a live agent at (561) 363-3673 if you want a faster response than the phone line.
Floor Plan Lineup
Marigold’s lineup runs four plans total, spanning 2,483 to 5,248 square feet under air, 3 to 7 bedrooms, 2.5 to 7.5 bathrooms, and 2 to 3 car garages. That’s a wide range within a single community, which tells you Pulte built Marigold to capture both a “smaller” luxury buyer stepping down from a larger home and a multigenerational or larger family buyer who needs real square footage.
Stellar is the entry point into the community. It’s the plan the current $1,335,990 starting price is attached to, and it’s the smallest of the four at the low end of that 2,483 to 5,248 square foot range. If you’re trying to get into Marigold at the lowest possible price point, Stellar is what you’re pricing against.
Livingston II sits at the top of the lineup, pushing toward the 5,248 square foot ceiling and pricing up into the $2.1 to $2.2 million range on quick move-in inventory. The standout feature on this plan is the optional Multi-Gen Suite, which is a private secondary living space built into the home, separate from the main living areas. This is a real feature for buyers bringing an aging parent into the household, or for adult children who need their own space but aren’t ready to be fully out of the house. If a multigenerational living arrangement is part of your decision, Livingston II is worth asking about specifically, because it’s not something every builder in this price range offers as a standard option.
Between Stellar and Livingston II, Marigold has two additional mid-tier plans that fill out the range. If you’re cross-shopping the lineup, don’t just look at the smallest and largest plan and assume the middle is a straight-line average. Ask the sales team for the full spec sheet on all four plans, including lot premiums, because pricing between plans doesn’t always scale evenly with square footage once you factor in which homesites each plan is available on.
For a deeper walkthrough of the full plan-by-plan pricing and options, see our Marigold Review (2026), which goes further into the specifics than a general overview post can.
Pricing and What’s Actually Available Right Now
Here’s where it gets useful if you’re actively shopping. As of the most recent pricing update, Marigold’s starting price is confirmed at $1,335,990 and up for the Stellar plan. That’s the real number, not a “pricing on request” placeholder, which is worth noting because a lot of new construction listings sit behind vague pricing until a buyer calls in.
More importantly, the quick move-in (QMI) inventory at Marigold is currently showing real price reductions, in the range of $25,000 to $100,000 off original list, across the homes currently captured in inventory. Specifically:
- Stellar QMIs are showing in the roughly $1.43 million to $1.51 million range
- Livingston II QMIs are showing in the roughly $2.11 million to $2.20 million range
Those reductions are a timely signal. Builders discount quick move-in inventory to move completed or near-completed homes off the books before they become carrying costs, and right now Pulte is doing exactly that at Marigold. Most of the current QMI completions are clustered around October and November 2026, which means if you want to close on a home that already exists (or is close to existing) rather than waiting out a 9 to 12 month build timeline, this is the window to be looking.
If you’re the type of buyer who wants a brand new home without the build-time uncertainty, ask specifically about QMI inventory when you call. Don’t just ask “what’s your starting price.” Ask “what do you have that’s completing in the next 60 to 90 days, and what’s the current price on it.” That’s a different conversation, and it’s the one that gets you the discount.
Location and Commute Tradeoffs
Marigold’s address, 5022 Caladium Way, puts it in central Davie just off Griffin Road. This is a meaningfully different location profile than western Davie or the areas closer to Weston. Griffin Road gives you a fast connection to I-595, which is the corridor most Broward commuters use to reach Fort Lauderdale, the airport, and the ports. The Florida Turnpike is also close by, which matters if your commute runs north toward Sunrise or Coral Springs, or south toward Miami-Dade.
What you’re trading for that central location is proximity to the western edge of Broward, where Weston and the more rural stretches near Southwest Ranches sit. If your priority is being closer to Weston’s school zones or the acreage lifestyle further west, Marigold is not positioned for that. It’s positioned for Davie proper, which itself has a strong identity built around Nova Southeastern University, the town’s semi-rural equestrian pockets, and a mix of older established neighborhoods and newer development like this one.
If you’re weighing Davie against Weston as a broader relocation decision, not just picking a single community, our complete guide to Weston and our Weston vs Coral Springs comparison are worth reading before you commit to Davie specifically. Davie and Weston sit close to each other geographically but have different governance, different HOA cultures, and different price ceilings at the top end. If your budget stretches toward Weston’s upper tier, our breakdown of Weston luxury homes shows what that comparison actually looks like in practice.
HOA and CDD Reality
Marigold is a gated community, and Community Association (HOA) fees are required. That’s confirmed. What isn’t published in the current sales materials is the exact monthly dollar figure. This is common with new construction that’s still actively selling. Builders often hold the final HOA number until the community is closer to full build-out, or they simply don’t lead with it in marketing materials because it’s not the number that gets a buyer excited.
Here’s the direct advice: don’t sign a purchase agreement at Marigold, or any new construction community in Broward, without getting the HOA fee in writing, along with what it covers (landscaping, gate and guardhouse, amenity maintenance, reserve funding) and how it’s scheduled to change once the community is fully built out and transferred from builder control to a homeowner-elected board. HOA fees at newly built-out communities frequently increase once the developer hands over control, because the developer often subsidizes early-stage costs to keep the number attractive during the sales period.
On CDD (Community Development District) fees specifically, ask directly whether Marigold carries one. Some new construction in Broward and Palm Beach counties is financed through CDD bonds that show up as a separate line item on your tax bill, on top of the HOA fee, and it’s a completely different financial obligation that a lot of buyers don’t fully understand until they’re already a year into ownership. Get this answered by the sales office in writing, not verbally, before you make a decision.
How Marigold Compares to Other Davie New Construction
This is the part most sales conversations skip, and it’s the part that actually helps you make a wise decision. You have real alternatives within a few miles of Marigold, and knowing where each one sits helps you understand what you’re actually paying for.
Estates by Turnberry, also in Davie, starts meaningfully higher than Marigold, running into the $1.7 to $2.2 million range. What you’re paying that premium for is lot size specifically, 20,000 to 25,000-plus square foot homesites, along with a guest casita option that Marigold doesn’t offer. If lot size and a separate guest structure matter more to you than saving several hundred thousand dollars, Estates by Turnberry is the better fit. For the full breakdown, see our Estates by Turnberry Review (2026).
The Oaks of Davie, built by Rhino Homes, starts from $1,550,000, sitting between Marigold and Estates by Turnberry on price. If you want new construction in Davie without going all the way up to Estates by Turnberry pricing, but you also don’t want Marigold’s entry-level Stellar plan, The Oaks of Davie is the middle option worth a look.
Vineyards rounds out the current Davie new construction set. Each of these four communities (Marigold, Estates by Turnberry, The Oaks of Davie, and Vineyards) is targeting a slightly different buyer within the same few square miles, which is unusual concentration for Broward right now. It means you genuinely don’t need to fall in love with the first community you tour. Walk more than one before you write an offer.
If you’re open to looking slightly further out, Cooper City has its own comparable new construction story worth understanding, covered in our guide to Hanson Preserve in Cooper City. It’s not a direct Davie substitute, but it’s useful context for what greenfield new construction costs elsewhere in the same general part of Broward.
The Smart Way to Approach the Builder
A few things worth knowing before you walk into the Marigold sales office, or any builder sales office in South Florida, for that matter.
First, builder sales reps work for the builder, not you. That’s not a criticism of Elli, Pam, or Clancy specifically, it’s just the structural reality of new construction sales. They can absolutely be helpful and straightforward, but their job is to sell you a home at the best price for Pulte, not to negotiate on your behalf. If you want someone advocating for your side of the transaction, bring your own buyer’s agent with you on the first visit, not after you’ve already fallen in love with a specific homesite. Most builders will not retroactively recognize your agent if you walk in unrepresented first.
Second, negotiate on the things builders will actually move on. Builders are typically far more flexible on closing cost credits, design center allowances, and rate buydowns than they are on the base price of the home. If Marigold’s current QMI reductions ($25,000 to $100,000 off original list) tell you anything, it’s that Pulte is already motivated to move existing inventory. Use that. Ask what additional incentive is available if you close by a specific date, or if you use Pulte’s preferred lender.
Third, get every verbal promise in writing. This applies to HOA fees, CDD status, completion timelines, and any upgrade that was described as “included.” New construction contracts are dense, and builder reps are not lying to you when they describe a feature verbally, but only what’s in the written contract and spec sheet is enforceable.
Fourth, walk the model home and the actual homesite separately. A model home is staged and often includes upgrades that aren’t standard on your specific plan and homesite. Before you sign anything, get the specific spec sheet for your build, and if possible, see a comparable completed QMI home so you know exactly what “standard” looks like without the model home staging.
Who Marigold Is Actually For
Marigold makes the most sense for buyers who want new construction in Davie, want the Pulte name and Signature Collection build quality, and are working with a budget in the $1.3 to $1.7 million range without needing an oversized lot. It’s also a strong fit for multigenerational households specifically because of the Livingston II Multi-Gen Suite option, which is a genuinely useful feature that not every builder in this price range offers.
Marigold is not the right fit if lot size is your primary driver. If you want a 20,000-plus square foot homesite, Estates by Turnberry a few minutes away is built for that, and if you want real acreage with no HOA at all, that’s a Southwest Ranches conversation, not a Marigold or Davie new construction conversation.
The Bottom Line
Marigold is a legitimate, well-positioned new construction option in Davie, starting from $1,335,990, with real quick move-in discounts on the table right now and a floor plan lineup that stretches from a 2,483 square foot entry plan to a 5,248 square foot estate plan with a multigenerational suite option. The HOA fee isn’t published yet, so get it in writing before you commit, and confirm CDD status directly with the sales office rather than assuming either way.
If you’re seriously considering Marigold, don’t tour it in isolation. Walk Estates by Turnberry and The Oaks of Davie in the same visit, or at least the same week, so you’re comparing real homesites against real homesites rather than comparing a brochure to a memory. If you want a second set of eyes on the contract, the QMI pricing, or how Marigold stacks up against what else is available in Davie right now, that’s exactly the kind of conversation worth having before you put down a deposit.
