This exceptional home is perfectly positioned on the coveted north end of Venice Island, offering nearly a half-acre of prime waterfront living along the Intracoastal Waterway. With a 12,000-lb. electric boat lift and no bridges to the Gulf of Mexico, this property is a dream for avid boaters and water enthusiasts. Directly across from the Roberts Bay Sports Boating Area and just moments from the Yacht Club and Venice Youth Boating Association, the location delivers unmatched access to world-class recreation. Whether you envision a full remodel or a complete custom rebuild, this homesite provides extraordinary potential. Conveniently located just minutes from the Venice Island Airport, golf, tennis, pristine beaches, and the charming downtown Venice Avenue—known for its dining, boutique shopping, farmers market, and year-round festivals—this is one of the most desirable lifestyle settings on the island. Inside, the home has already begun its transformation, featuring new tile flooring throughout the main living area. The entrance welcomes you with abundant natural light from the southern exposure. The expansive great room and dining area boast cathedral ceilings and stunning water views through fully collapsing sliding glass doors that seamlessly blend indoor and outdoor living. The bright, spacious kitchen is appointed with light cabinetry and Corian countertops. A newly enhanced second primary suite offers an impressive walk-in closet with custom built-ins. The main primary suite is generously sized, complete with a Jacuzzi tub overlooking the water—an ideal retreat for relaxation. The outdoor living area is designed for comfort and entertainment, featuring a large, covered lanai with cool deck flooring and ample dining space. The well-maintained saltwater pool provides a serene vantage point to enjoy peaceful ICW views in total privacy. An oversized two-car garage adds exceptional functionality, offering abundant storage, workspace, and an adjacent laundry room. This split-bedroom ranch home is a rare opportunity to secure an extraordinary waterfront property in one of Venice Island’s most sought-after locations.
