LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! Located just 5 minutes from the island of Venice, where you can enjoy the historic downtown and beautiful Venice Beach, this meticulously maintained, and beautifully upgraded villa is sure to impress. Tucked away in the very back of Auburn Woods, a small enclave of maintenance free villas, this home enjoys a private South facing preserve view. NO CDD FEES, NO FLOOD INSURANCE REQUIRED, and some of the LOWEST HOA FEES you will find in the Venice area. With a BRAND-NEW ROOF that was just installed in 2023, as well as new exterior paint, this villa is truly move-in ready. Behind the front privacy wall with decorative iron gate, you will find a large courtyard adorned with beautiful pavers. The courtyard extends the full length of the house and wraps around to the rear patio, creating multiple areas to relax, entertain, or unwind after a day at the beach. The front porch is screened-in so you can leave the front door open and enjoy the cross breeze through the home during the winter months when the Florida weather is practically perfect. Once inside you will find an interior that has been completely painted in a fresh and inviting color palette, tile that runs throughout all of the main living areas, and high ceilings. The kitchen was renovated to include new cabinet fronts, stunning quartz countertops, oversized stainless-steel sink, decorative tile backsplash, and upgraded stainless steel appliances. The main living area is flooded with light thanks to several large windows and provides ample space. Just beyond the living room at the back of the home you will find a light-filled sunroom with French doors out to the patio. This space can easily be used as an office or a flex room, giving you options to create a space that fits your lifestyle. The kitchen opens onto a family room and dining area that are both perfect for entertaining and everyday living. The tranquil primary suite has a bay window that will allow you to enjoy the private preserve view right from the comfort of your bed. There is a large walk-in closet and an en suite bathroom with upgraded quartz countertops and fixtures, as well as a convenient walk-in shower. On the opposite side of the home is a generous sized second bedroom with a large closet, as well as a second bathroom that was also upgraded with new quartz countertops and fixtures. The two-car garage houses a whole house water softener system, and just inside there is a large laundry room with extra cabinets for additional storage, as well as a convenient utility sink. Live within minutes of local attractions, wonderful restaurants, and tons of shopping. With easy access to I-75, 2 local beaches, the Legacy Bike Trail, and so much more, this location will not disappoint.
