420 Beach Park Blvd., Venice, FL 34285

Charming and cheerful on the desirable Island of Venice, this exceptionally maintained three-bedroom home sits a mere mile from Venice Beach and boasts all the delights of island life. A Mediterranean-style courtyard welcomes, announcing a spacious single-level floorplan of coastal hues, ceramic and bamboo flooring and abundant natural light. The current owners have optimized the home for today’s island buyer, updating utilities for efficiency, removing popcorn ceilings and adding details like plantations shutters that truly speak to the tropical locale. The large shared space of the living and dining room is versatile for all entertaining with custom built-ins and glass sliders to the lanai, while the adjacent kitchen impresses wood cabinets, granite countertops, large island and full-wall pantry. Newer stainless appliances appease any chef, offering two sinks with charcoal filtration, induction stove and wine refrigerator. The master suite is bright and accommodating with lanai access and updated closets and bath. The generous guest bath has also been updated. What is island life without a space to enjoy it? The enclosed lanai does not disappoint with multiple covered areas, a 7’ solar-heated pool with cleaning robot and new autofill unit, and outdoor shower. A certified Florida-Friendly yard soothes the senses with native landscaping. Additional items of note are the two electric car-charging stations, whole-house water softening system, re-vented exhaust fans, re-insulated attic, and new Lennox HVAC.
