Property Description
3/2 lakefront home in Venice Gardens in Venice. X flood zone, no HOA, updated kitchen and baths, 630+ sq ft garage, 1597 sq ft living space. Lakefront living in Venice Gardens with practical ownership advantages that buyers often ask about first. This 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom Venice home offers 1,597 sq ft of living space, 2,832 sq ft under roof, public water and sewer, an X flood zone designation, no HOA, no deed restrictions, and no CDD fees. Set on one of the chain of lakes in Venice Gardens, the home combines water views, useful updates, and a location close to the best of Venice. Block construction adds a practical Florida benefit, while the updated kitchen and bathrooms help support everyday comfort and ease of ownership. The kitchen features soaring ceilings, timeless white shaker-style cabinetry, and a bright connection to the main living areas. The bathrooms have also been updated, giving the home a more move-in-ready feel while keeping the layout functional for daily living. Storage, hobby space, and utility are strong points here. The oversized 630+ sq ft 2-car garage includes workshop space, offering room for tools, projects, bikes, beach gear, or additional household storage. One of the standout spaces is the expansive 430 sq ft enclosed Florida room overlooking the lake. It adds flexible indoor-outdoor living space for dining, relaxing, entertaining, or enjoying sunset views over the water. Across the lake, a nearby park adds a pleasant natural backdrop to the lake view, creating a more open and connected setting without changing the private feel of the .31 acre lot. The outdoor space gives you room to explore future additions such as a pool or ADU, subject to applicable local requirements. Venice, known as the City on the Gulf, is loved for its small-town feel while offering access to the amenities, recreation, and dining many buyers look for on Florida’s Gulf Coast. Venice Gardens offers an optional Civic Center membership for a nominal fee of under $200 per year, with access to the community pool and center activities. Historic downtown Venice on the Island of Venice is about a 10-minute drive away, with the Saturday morning farmers market, beaches, shelling, shark tooth hunting, shopping, waterfront dining, boating, fishing, pickleball, tennis, golf, and more nearby. With lake views, updated interiors, block construction, generous garage space, no HOA restrictions, an X flood zone designation, and a park across the lake, this Venice Gardens home brings together comfort, flexibility, and practical value in a well-established Venice location.
