Great opportunity for some much needed R&R with the privacy of this home. The pool with in-pool sun deck is ready for your enjoyment. There is no shortage of “Beach House” feel in this charming Venice home. From the moment you step in the front door you will think you are at a beach house. The owners have taken great interest (and obvious enjoyment) in decorating this home with their creative talent. This is a newer home built with an open-concept approach and has vaulted ceilings for added brightness and spacious feel. The furnishings and every ounce of unique décor are perfectly coordinated against the backdrop of the soothing pastel wall colors. You will have no choice but to relax here. I would wonder if the owners enthusiasm for decorating was inspired by the proximity of this home to several beaches. You can use the kayaks located at this home to explore the mangroves and sea life. The kayaks are each equipped with a wheeled cart for easy transport from SUV or truck to a launch. Keep your eyes open for manatee and dolphins. It would not be rare to see them. In shallow water you may even find inhabited Conch shells. Whether you spent a pleasant day at the beach lounging and shelling, or maybe you found adventure with the bicycles or kayaks, you will find peace and tranquility upon your arrival back home. The home has two inviting bedrooms with the master having its own on-suite bathroom featuring a soaking tub. There is plenty of room to spread out with your choice of family room (featuring queen-size sleeper sofa) or living room to relax and put your feet up. The kitchen overlooks the living room for continued interaction and conversation during meal preparation. Enjoy a peaceful dinner on the lanai overlooking the undeveloped green space behind the home; a residence for native birds and gopher tortoise. This warm and inviting home welcomes you and your family. Bring Spot or Rover too. Yes, well behaved dogs are welcome for an additional pet fee/per pet. The backyard is completely fenced by a privacy fence to the west and the remaining perimeter is enclosed by a decorative fence to allow unobstructed view of green foliage. There is no indication that dogs are allowed as this home is meticulously maintained. The location of this home is in a coastal community with the opportunity to visit several beaches in Venice, to the north in Sarasota, or to the south in Englewood. Pool Heat is optional and available for an additional $110/week plus tax. Please inquire before or after reservation is made if you would like pool heat added to your reservation. The ferry that is mentioned in some of the reviews is now available to residents only.
