If you're ready for a great Venice Island location on a quiet cul de sac street, mid-way between downtown and the beach, with a spacious house that is ready for a new owner who loves a rewarding project, this one is ready for you. The large pool in a 40x24 screen cage is the focal point from pocketing sliding doors in main living areas and master bedroom. Beyond that is mature foliage providing afternoon shade plus privacy from adjacent homes. There is a wide covered lanai plus 2 bricked patios, one beside the front entry and a larger one in the back. The floor plan has the master getaway on one side of the house, and two good size bedrooms and a bath on the other. The main living areas are a big (18x23) family room with wood burning fireplace and combination living room/dining room. The kitchen opens to both of these spaces, offering many options. The garage has extra width and depth, with a handy workbench and a laundry area that could easily be partitioned to become part of the interior space of the house. This is a solid, well-built home that was loved by the same family for decades.
