About this home
Seller will consider owner financing up to $500k. On the island, just blocks to water & all of Venice’s GORGEOUS-pristine beaches (Casperson, Sharkey’s, dog beach & Venice beach are all minutes away). Almost $300K in updating this home. This is an open floor plan home with a massive living room, an additional front family room with beautiful views, 2 bedrooms, both are plenty big for king beds (currently in both). The bedrooms each have large closets with lighting. 2 full bathrooms (both have been redone), PLUS an extra room with a custom built-in bunk-Murphy beds (2 twin xl’s) which is brand new and also used for our office (no closet). Upgrades: new central heating and air (under warranty), new custom pebble tech saltwater sports pool (shallow on both ends for volleyball) with a huge beach area, lighting, water features, auto fill, a super heater (will heat to over 100 @ Christmas), 2 skimmers and a new 100 amp sub-panel installed on pool equipment side. Matching patio area and walk-way installed to the pool. Brand new oversized hurricane windows & doors throughout (the front door is a custom frosted glass hurricane door). Exterior of the home was fully painted with high grade Duration paint. New septic lines installed, new main electrical panel, new hot water heater installed and relocated to outside storage room under the carport. New ceiling fans with remotes and recessed lighting added through the entire home, new frosted glass closet doors in both bedrooms. The bathroom w/ laundry was completely gutted and redone top to bottom (new shower pan, new plumbing in the wall, new toilet, new vanity, new fixtures, new shower enclosure w/ gorgeous white tile). Additionally, it includes new custom built-in cabinetry designed and installed specifically for efficient storage, including a clothes bar to hang laundry easily. There is also a MASSIVE walk-in storage room with a frosted glass door and floor to ceiling custom builtins in this area! Brand new appliances (fridge has filtered water and an ice maker in the door) kitchen cabinetry is all SOLID wood, new solid white quartz countertops, new double sink and fixtures! New custom high-end window coverings throughout, (blackout in guest room). New massive heavy duty wood shed @ the back of the property with a work bench. New automatic massive Generac generator installed with an underground 500 gallon propane tank (will run the entire home for over a week if the power goes out)!!! New gutters and downspouts installed on the home. New white vinyl fencing installed around the entire yard with 3 gates! Access to an through alley out back that is huge, most homes on the street build a garage out back and pull into their homes through the alley, or you could build an ADU… options are endless! Massive window installed in the west facing wall in big living room for gorgeous views in the evening! Solar installed so your costs will be LOW with a tiny service fee to FPL monthly. At the end of year 3 you can cancel at NO cost or keep the 20 year contract (with electricity costs continuing to rise this is a huge future savings!).
Come live the Florida lifestyle in this home on the Island in Venice. Just under a mile from the beach and a mile from Venice Avenue shops and restaurants, this gem is exactly what you're looking for. Two bedrooms, two bathrooms, plus a bonus room and family room means there is plenty of space for the family and guests. A large walk in storage closet sits at the back of the family room. The spacious lot boasts a large paver patio that is perfect for outdoor entertaining, escape to the enclosed patio if an afternoon rainstorm blows in. There is a back "alley" entrance which gives this home added potential; with so much lot space an attached/detached garage or in-law suite could be added. Wanting to put in a pool? There is space for that here too! Plenty of opportunity to do some remodeling and enlarge the square footage of the home as well. The carport could be enclosed, a few walls opened in the bonus room and in the second bathroom to create a large master suite. Endless opportunities for this treasure! This home has been well maintained, there is a newer hot water heater and when the roof was last replaced they chose a long lasting metal. Don't let this one pass you by, schedule a showing today!
