NEW AND IMPROVED PRICE! Set within the gated community of Venetia, this residence brings together thoughtful updates, natural light, and everyday livability in a setting that feels both welcoming and connected. From the moment you arrive, the curb appeal and upgraded decorative front doors create a warm first impression, while the park-like green space with mature trees just outside your front door adds a sense of calm and privacy. Step inside, and you're immediately drawn to the light that fills the home and the easy, comfortable flow of the layout. Tray ceilings add dimension overhead, while the living room naturally becomes the gathering space-anchored by sliding glass doors that lead to the lanai and create that seamless indoor-outdoor connection Florida living is known for. With access from both the dinette and the primary suite, the lanai becomes a natural extension of the home-perfect for slow mornings or relaxed evenings. Just beyond the lanai, the backyard offers a simple, easy-to-enjoy outdoor space, with a tree that provides shade and a sense of quiet separation-comfortable, manageable, and just enough to enjoy without the upkeep of something larger. The kitchen is designed for real life, offering a true pantry, a breakfast bar with seating for two, and the rare convenience of two dishwashers. Just beyond, the dedicated dinette provides space for a table seating four, with its own access to the lanai, creating an easy flow for both casual meals and gatherings. Custom-made window treatments and valances are already in place throughout, adding a thoughtful, finished touch. Tucked privately away, the primary suite is filled with natural light and offers direct access to the lanai. The ensuite bath creates a quiet retreat, complete with a jetted tub and a separate water closet. Storage is well integrated throughout, with spacious closets and well-placed storage that make staying organized easy. The secondary bathroom includes a ceiling-mounted heat lamp for added comfort. This home has been carefully maintained and meaningfully updated, including a new roof (2025), new AC (2022), and upgrades to plumbing and flooring-giving you confidence in both the big and small details. Just across the street, guest parking makes it easy to welcome friends and family. Sidewalk-lined streets invite daily walks and a sense of connection throughout the neighborhood. Life in Venetia extends beyond your front door, with access to a clubhouse, resort-style pool and spa, fitness center, tennis and pickleball courts, and a full calendar of social activities. Shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences are right across the street. Located just minutes from Venice Beach, waterfront dining, and the charm of downtown Venice, this home offers a lifestyle that feels easy, connected, and distinctly coastal.
