About this home
Virtually Staged. REDUCED! PLEASE NOTE THE PROPERTY APPRAISER SITE DOES NOT REFLECT THE PERMITTED EXPANSION-ADDITION DONE IN 2016. PLUS THE HOME HAS BEEN FULLY UPDATED. MOVE-IN READY & beautifully updated, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath pool home is tucked away on a quiet private cul-de-sac in the highly desirable Jacaranda West neighborhood—an ideal setting for both full-time residents & seasonal owners alike. With a roof just two years old, fully updated kitchen & bathrooms, refreshed interior paint, updated flooring, & a permitted expansion of the living space, this home offers peace of mind & easy Florida living from the moment you arrive. Pocket sliding glass doors allow entire walls of glass to disappear, opening the home to the outdoors & instantly setting the tone for relaxed, resort-style living. The popular split-bedroom floor plan provides privacy & flexibility, while vaulted ceilings in the kitchen & family room create a light, open atmosphere perfect for everyday living & entertaining. Stylish finishes include luxury vinyl flooring, porcelain tile flooring, & an electric fireplace, adding warmth & charm to the main living space. Step outside through the pocket sliders to a spacious covered lanai that flows seamlessly into the updated paver lanai & resurfaced pool deck, making it easy to enjoy poolside dining, casual gatherings, or quiet mornings with coffee by the pool! The permitted expansion, completed by the seller—a licensed contractor—added approximately 150 square feet of indoor living area, converting the home from a two-bedroom to a three-bedroom layout & incorporating an indoor laundry room with sink. An oversized garage with room for a golf cart offers excellent storage & everyday convenience. Set on a private-feeling 10,000+ square-foot lot with mature tropical landscaping, the property enjoys public water & sewer, along with a low annual HOA of just $550, designed to keep the neighborhood attractive while remaining easygoing & resident-friendly. The family-friendly neighborhood is within an excellent school district, the home is close to top-rated schools including Garden Elementary, Venice Middle School, Venice High School, & access to the nationally recognized Pine View School for the Gifted.
