Affordable access to true Florida living with solid, block construction that has stood the test of time! This South Venice gem occupies a spacious, 10000 sq foot lot in an unbeatable location for those who love the water and the beach: just a half-mile to the optional South Venice Beach ferry and boat ramp access! Low-risk X flood zone (no flood insurance required) and recent upgrades to ensure peace of mind: New Roof (2025), HVAC (2022). And with no HOA or CDD fees, you’re free to enjoy your property just the way you want to. Bring your toys! This 2-bedroom floor plan embodies the quintessential mid-century modern Florida ranch: solid, comfortable and stylish, with great attention to detail . . . including some real bursts of glamour. Doorknobs throughout and kitchen cabinet/drawer pulls are reminiscent of pioneering home designer and builder Ruth Richmond’s design signature, round, amber orbs with sparkly gold inclusions. Both bathrooms have been updated, while maintaining excellent examples of mosaic tile and period architectural features. The primary suite has an ensuite bathroom, and both bedrooms have walk-in closets. The main living area is wide open and a dinette leads to an efficient kitchen. There’s also is a convenient, indoor laundry room with utility sink. Relax in the shady backyard (just waiting for a garden or a fire pit) or host guests on the screened lanai with its high, angled ceiling. Whether you are looking for a seasonal winter retreat, a savvy investment, or a full-time residence, this home is brimming with potential. The neighborhood’s best amenity is optional annual pass granting you exclusive access to the private South Venice Beach via a 3-minute ferry ride, or boaters can purchase a pass for the Boat Ramp or Kayak Launch. Other Gulf Coast beaches, including Manasota Beach (approx. 4 miles) and Venice Beach (approx. 5 miles) are a short drive away, as is Historic Downtown Venice, with its charming boutiques, local dining, events and concerts, and Venice Theatre. Enjoy unmatched access to the best of Venice. A mile away are Shamrock Park (basketball, tennis, nature trails) and the scenic Venetian Waterway Trail, which joins the famous Legacy Trail for walking and cycling. Convenience is key: shopping and restaurants on US-41 are also just over a mile away, and you’re also about 15 minutes from CoolToday Park (Braves Spring Training) and the new hotspot, Downtown Wellen. Don’t miss out on this unique South Venice opportunity; schedule your private tour now and secure your spot in the Florida sunshine!
