1712 CLAW COURT, Venice, FL, 34293 | $545,000

Welcome to Jacaranda West, where this premier peninsula homesite at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac captures 149 feet of shoreline and wide 180-degree open-water views across the broadest stretch of Claw Lake—an outlook that brings light, space, and privacy to everyday living. Claw Lake is spring-fed and winds for more than two miles through the community, bordered by gently curving riprap shoreline. It’s designed for the kind of lake life community actually want: kayaking, canoeing, paddlecraft, sailing, and electric-motor boating are welcome, while combustible engines are prohibited. Whether you enjoy a quiet paddle, casting a line, or simply watching the water change throughout the day, the setting supports it naturally. Inside, the home offers 1, 704 square feet of thoughtfully updated, open-concept living with two bedrooms, two baths, and an oversized two-car garage. The interior lives bright and wide, with expansive windows and sliding glass doors that keep the lake present throughout the main living spaces. The result is a seamless relationship between indoors and outdoors—easy for everyday living and equally comfortable for entertaining. Outdoor living has been planned with intention: the 30-by-15-foot pool and heated spa are positioned along the side of the home so they preserve the full sweep of shoreline and water views from the primary rooms. More than 1, 000 square feet of brick pavers span the patio and pool deck, creating generous space for dining, lounging, and gathering. At the water’s edge, the 12-by-12-foot dock with railing becomes the natural destination—sunrise coffee, a quiet afternoon, or a glass of wine at sunset as the lake settles into evening. Inside, the layout follows the waterline, keeping the view as the home’s defining feature. As you move through the house, the lake remains the constant backdrop—breathtaking in scale, calming in effect. Satin walls, higher crown molding, and paneled doors and casings provide a finished, cohesive feel that complements the setting without distracting from it. The overall impression is calm, casual elegance. The residence has been comprehensively improved with hand-crafted cabinetry and custom built-ins, granite countertops, and new luxury vinyl flooring—creating a refined yet comfortable environment that is ready to enjoy. Convenience completes the package: approximately 10 minutes to downtown Venice shops and restaurants, 10 to 15 minutes to area beaches, and about five minutes to Jacaranda West Country Club, with additional golf options close by. Recent improvements include a new metal roof, gutters, soffits, and full interior/exterior painting (Jan 2023); a new air-conditioning system with all-new ductwork; a remodeled kitchen; new flooring (Aug 2020); attic insulation upgraded to R-49 (Sep 2022); and a new lake-fed irrigation pump and timer (Sep 2025). If you’ve been waiting for a home where the view truly defines the experience—and where the lake feels like part of daily life—this is one you must see in person.
