Property Description

Set on a spacious 100' x 100' landscaped homesite, this charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers approximately 1,815 square feet of living space, beautiful lake and wildlife views, a fully fenced backyard and no HOA. Mature trees and landscaping enhance the tranquil, park-like setting, while the generous property offers room to add a pool. Inside, abundant natural light and new flooring enhance the main living areas. The home offers multiple inviting living spaces, including a separate living room and dining area, with a versatile bonus area positioned between the two. This flexible space can serve as a den, study, reading room, or additional sitting area. Toward the rear of the home, a spacious family room provides another comfortable gathering space with easy access to the expansive screened porch for indoor-outdoor Florida living. The updated kitchen features wood cabinetry, solid-surface countertops, newer appliances, and generous workspace and storage. Two spacious bedrooms are located on the main level and share an updated bath with walk in shower and single vanity. Upstairs, the private primary suite creates a relaxing retreat with a walk-in closet and updated ensuite bath featuring a tiled walk-in shower. The suite opens to both an open-air terrace and screened balcony, offering additional spaces to unwind and take in the peaceful surroundings. Outdoor living is a highlight with a screened, covered wraparound lanai overlooking the fenced backyard and lake. A large outdoor sitting and patio area provides additional space for entertaining, relaxing, or enjoying the abundant wildlife. With no residence immediately behind the property across the water, the backyard maintains an appealing sense of openness and privacy. Approximately 4-foot split-rail fencing with wire helps preserve the lake views, while an approximately 12-foot-wide access gate provides convenient backyard access for recreational equipment or trailers, subject to applicable regulations. Additional storage is provided by an approximately 10' x 14' permitted detached storage building with wood construction, metal siding, a metal roof, and metal doors. The oversized one-car garage includes the washer and dryer along with a removable finished flex/office area, currently used as a home office. The partition can be removed to restore a larger garage configuration. Significant documented improvements include a FULL ROOF REPLACEMENT COMPLETED IN MAY 2024 with Owens Corning architectural asphalt shingles and GAF WeatherWatch/StormGuard waterproof underlayment. Roof-to-wall/truss attachments were upgraded in 2022 by Florida Third Nail Specialists, including qualifying truss clips where required, followed by a wind-mitigation inspection. Two large windows have also been replaced with storm impact-resistant windows; only these two windows are represented as impact-resistant. The GAF underlayment carries a limited warranty with transfer provisions, subject to manufacturer requirements. The home is served by a private septic system, most recently pumped in May 2025, and extensive documentation is available for many of the property's improvements and inspections. With NO HOA and no known deed restrictions, this inviting lakefront home combines privacy, character, flexible living space, valuable improvements, and an exceptional outdoor setting—all while remaining conveniently located near Venice shopping, dining, recreation, and the beautiful Gulf Coast beaches.
