540 S Quincy Rd., Venice, FL 34293

Welcome to your unique vintage home full of character. Quaint storage cabinetry outside the guest bath; private entry into one of the bedrooms for a family member that may want some independence; solid concrete walls -- homes are just not constructed like this anymore. Dining area overlooks the spacious pool and screened lanai both built in 2000. You can step out from the dining area into a screened breezeway that lies between the home and the workshop. Sit there with your morning coffee or, when it rains, come out to smell the freshness. Besides the workshop, there is also a detached shed with electric and cable. This could serve as an artist's studio, remote office or classroom. Home sits on an oversized parcel with lots of room to grow a vegetable garden or set up a kids play area. The roof was replaced in Oct. 2009 with white Energy efficient Architectural shingles. The inside was freshly painted. The expansive driveway has new rock (as opposed to shell) and can accommodate an RV, boat and several cars -- really great parking! Windows have been replaced with single hung windows. South Venice is a centrally located community where for a small fee of $50 per year you can join the voluntary Homeowners Association. You can additionally purchase a pass for the community ferry that takes you to a private beach and can also get a pass to use the boat ramp. This home is well worth considering.
