There is something refreshing about a home that encourages you to slow down and enjoy the simple moments. Perhaps it's coffee on the screened front porch as the neighborhood quietly comes to life, an afternoon spent in your private courtyard, or an evening on the screened lanai overlooking the open green space beyond. At this beautifully maintained villa in Hourglass Lake Estates, home isn't simply where you live-it's where Florida living feels effortless. Perfectly positioned within the community and just minutes from both Venice Beach and Manasota Beach, this inviting two-bedroom, two-bath villa embraces the indoor-outdoor lifestyle Southwest Florida is known for with four distinct outdoor living spaces, each offering its own place to relax, entertain, or simply enjoy the beautiful year-round weather. Inside, abundant natural light, cathedral ceilings, and a thoughtfully designed split-bedroom floor plan create an inviting sense of openness. The spacious living and dining areas flow comfortably together, while sliding glass doors seamlessly extend the living space outdoors. The kitchen combines timeless style with everyday function, featuring granite countertops, real wood soft-close cabinetry, decorative display shelving, stainless steel appliances, and generous workspace for preparing meals or gathering with family and friends. Just beyond, a private gated patio offers a convenient place to come and go after a day spent at the beach. The primary suite provides a peaceful retreat with a spacious walk-in closet, dual vanities, and a private en-suite bath. A comfortable guest bedroom is thoughtfully positioned near the second full bathroom with a tub and shower combination, creating privacy for family and overnight guests. At the rear of the home, the screened lanai with newer composite flooring overlooks the surrounding green space, creating a peaceful backdrop for morning coffee, evening cocktails, or simply watching Florida's birds and wildlife throughout the day. Practical details make everyday living just as enjoyable, including a generously sized laundry room with abundant cabinetry, countertop workspace, utility sink, and exceptional storage. The attached two-car garage features a screened garage door and direct access to the front porch, allowing refreshing cross breezes to flow through the home during the cooler months.
