If seeking nostalgia comforts your soul and you pine for the prestige of living in a private waterfront community, let me share the secret that lies behind the gates of The Eagle Point Club. One of Venice's most exclusive waterfront communities on Robert's Bay with unobstructed access to the Gulf of Mexico. Travel back in time to 1911 when the Palmer Family purchased this area for the upper class with leisure time and a desire to escape the winter for fishing and hunting. Today, this enclave of only 40 homes, exudes Old Florida charm with some of the original guest cottages available for your overflow guests. A community so rich in history it has earned a place on the National Historic Registry. Bound to be passed to future generations, this 2 story Key West elevated home will steal your heart and exceed your expectations. Whether it's the warm woods used interior, the unique cupola in the foyer or the pool spa on the back porch, every inch of this home has been tended to and loved. Rarely available, you will find exotic landscaping, wrap-around porches, a twinkle of the water through the sanctuary-like setting. Take note of the chef's kitchen and her discerning style while updating her kitchen. Stroll to the boathouse and enjoy your own private dock that includes a 13,000 lb boat lift. Practice your tennis swing without leaving the gates. Above all, be one of the few who can appreciate the history and carry on the legacy.
