Property Description
Virtually Staged. Coastal living, thoughtfully refined – just minutes from Venice Beach and the timeless charm of Historic Downtown Venice. Nestled within the family-friendly, golf-cart community of East Gate “Old East Venice,” this elevated residence presents an exceptional opportunity to enjoy the very best of Florida living. Resting confidently on a large private lot framed by mature oak trees and natural surroundings, this home offers comfort, flexibility, and enduring value rarely found so close to the coast. The spacious split floor plan with a primary en-suite and separate guest quarters effortlessly balances connection and privacy. Oversized newer windows bathe the interior with natural light, while the open-concept living and dining areas flow seamlessly into the additional 330/sq ft. climate-controlled Florida Room – not included in the recorded footprint – well suited for an art studio, wellness space, reading lounge or private guest retreat. Direct access to the oversized enclosed patio further extends the space, creating a peaceful setting to enjoy quiet moments throughout the day while native wildlife drifts through the landscape. At the heart of the home, an expansive kitchen with ample room for gathering, entertaining, and everyday living. The west-facing orientation transitions beautifully from soft light to glowing sunsets, creating an atmosphere that feels both serene and restorative. Beyond the interiors, the oversized backyard offers endless potential – an open canvas to create your own personal oasis. Imagine a sparkling, resort-style pool surrounded by lush landscaping, boat storage for weekends on the water, or just simply having intimate space to enjoy a slower rhythm of living. Recent improvements and features include solid block construction, public water & sewer, newer shingle & flat roof (2021), insulated aluminum patio roof (2024), HVAC (2018), a newer garage door with hurricane-impact reinforcements (2020), SafeStep Walk-In Tub (2023), fresh interior paint, updated electric, new door fixtures throughout, and all new lighting (2025). The oversized two-car garage with built-in shelving adds additional functionality and storage. Ideally located, the East Gate community is just a short drive to SRQ/TPA/VNC, and provides access to a wealth of amenities, including award-winning beaches, boating, championship golf courses, the Legacy Trail, recreational parks, fine dining, shopping, and world-class medical facilities. Non-deed restricted, no HOA/CDD, and A+ rated schools. Low-maintenance lifestyle to enjoy as a full-time residence, vacation home or investment opportunity. Zoned RSF, thirty (30) day minimum rental flexibility presents excellent seasonal or long-term income potential. Above flood plain and not within an evacuation zone; no flood insurance required. A detailed Feature Sheet & 4Point Report are available upon request.
