This villa in Myrtle Trace could be the best deal in all of the Plantation Golf & Country Club! The first thing you’ll notice when you walk in is the beautiful hardwood floors in the main living area with high, vaulted ceilings. Off the main area is the updated kitchen with newer stainless-steel appliances and granite counters. The kitchen also has its own lanai that has been recently rescreened and has new porcelain tiled floors. Both lanais offer a very private wooded view. Featuring 2 master ensuites with private bathrooms, this villa also has an additional half bath which is very uncommon in these villas. In fact, this is currently the only villa for sale in Myrtle Trace that has the additional half bath. This unique feature is great when entertaining guests as they do not need to use one of the private bathrooms. Plenty of storage inside the unit as well as in the oversized 2 car garage. Myrtle Trace features a community pool and clubhouse that’s just down the block. However, if you want more amenities, there is a an optional Social or Golf membership available at the Plantation Golf and Country Club that includes 2 golf courses, an Olympic sized pool, tennis courts, pickle ball, fitness center, bocce, multiple dining areas and a tiki bar. The Myrtle Trace location is simply ideal for all lifestyles. Live less than 10 miles to the wonderful dining and shopping experiences of Historic Downtown Venice as well as beautiful Venice Beach. The Venice Fishing Pier, Brohard Dog Beach (the only dog beach anywhere in the vicinity) and world-famous Sharky’s On The Pier (tiki bar and restaurant) are all less than 8 miles away. In the other direction, just a few miles up the road, is the up-and-coming Downtown Wellen Park, the area’s newest gathering hot-spot that brings dining, entertainment, shopping and outdoor recreation close to home. And, let’s not forget, less than 5 miles away is Cool Today Park, the spring training facility of the Atlanta Braves. This villa could use some minor updating and is priced accordingly. Put this one on your MUST-SEE list and schedule a showing today. At this price, in this location, it won’t last long!

How insights can help you

Interest rate

If the seller has a low interest rate, they may be tempted to rent the property out if they can't get the price they have in mind.

Motivation

If the seller already got a job in a different city, they may feel pressure to sell quickly to free up cash for a new home.

Equity

If the seller stands to receive a large amount of cash when they sell the property, they might be willing to negotiate on the offer price.
