*** VENICE ISLAND *** HISTORIC DISTRICT *** UPDATED!!! Very pretty 2 bed 2 bath condo with heated community pool, and clubhouse, underground parking and lots of guest parking. Walk to everything! Less than one block to shopping, restaurants, and the Venice Theater in the charming Venice Historic District. Just 8 blocks to Venice Beach. LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION. Step inside and you will see that this condo just FEELS good, with lots of natural light. Fresh, modern, immaculate. The smartly designed kitchen features nice upgrades, including a tray ceiling, solid wood cabinetry, stone look laminate counters, and newer appliances (including a BRAND NEW Stainless Refrigerator, and Stainless Bosch Dishwasher), new kitchen faucet, pull out shelves, and a clever water filtration system offering clean water for cooking or drinking. The graciously sized dining room flows right into the living room, for an open feel - perfect for lounging or entertaining. You will appreciate the little details, like Plantation Shutters throughout (with a transferable lifetime warranty), new Levolor Blinds, and beautiful porcelain tiles that look like wood floors in the living and dining room areas. Brand new window blinds, and the A/C is 2014. Both bedrooms are generously sized, and feature full private bathrooms. Both shower stalls have been freshly updated and are simply GORGEOUS! The Owner's Bedroom includes a 6X5 walk in closet, and extra storage cabinetry in the en suite bathroom. The Guest Bedroom also enjoys an en suite bathroom, with extra storage cabinetry. AND the Guest Suite has brilliant built-ins for even more storage, a 5X5 walk in closet, and a thoughtful built-in desk, so this room can easily do double duty. But your favorite room of the house may be the screened lanai, with ceramic tile flooring, and a view of the pool and City tree tops. If you peek to the right, you can see bits of the intercoastal and the masts of sail boats floating by. In the horizon to the west, you can JUST BARELY see the line of the Gulf of Mexico, just over the trees - reminding you how close you are to the beach. So, here's what you do - open up the lanai sliders and the front door of this home to enjoy lovely spring breezes during the current months (protected from leaves and bugs by the new screened front storm door). Pour a tall cold drink, open a good book, and put your feet up. Ah, yes. This is Paradise.
