Views of the sparkling swimming pool and large lanai invite relaxation and refreshment within a private setting, surrounded by lovely landscape and trees. The master suite is nice, with a walk-in closet and master bathroom. The second and third bedrooms are located on the opposite side of the home and share a bathroom. The entire home is picture-perfect and move-in ready with fresh paint inside and out. All of the carpeting has been replaced throughout the home. The roof was re-shingled in 2012. The oversized yard provides plenty of room for gardening and entertaining. A separate workshop with electric awaits the hobbyist! The property is located on one of the prettiest streets in the waterfront community of South Venice and is less than a mile from the South Venice Civic Association where you can take scenic ferry rides to and from a private beach. You may attend social events, or even take various classes at the Civic Association. Local beaches are plentiful, where you can relax among the surf, hunt for seashells and enjoy spectacular evening sunsets. Golfing, fishing, boating, tennis, hiking, horseback riding and all of your favorite outdoor activities can be enjoyed all year in the Florida sunshine. Also nearby is the quaint Island of Venice with many restaurants, shops and points of interest. This home was virtually staged.
