456 Pinewood Lake Dr, Venice, FL 34285

A gem of a jewel. Offered fully furnished. You know a place is special from the moment you walk through the door, and this home is pretty close to perfect. An idyllic lake/golf setting, emanating from virtually every room. An expansive tile floor lanai, layered with screened and sliding clear view panels which transition to a three season room. Freshly painted with full house electronic accordion shutters. The home's open and functional floor plan boasts a kitchen with white shaker cabinets, stainless appliances, and breakfast bar. Unity of design is evident in the great room and dining area with handsome engineered wood floors, continuing through the primary and guest bedrooms. The large primary bedroom en-suite has sliding doors to the lanai, a walk-in and secondary closet, dual sinks, separate shower, tub, and water closet --- while the guest bedroom and bathroom provide privacy for family and friends. A surprise bonus is a fully built-in office/den, multiple closets, and 2-car garage with epoxy floor. Together with lawn maintenance, high-speed internet and expanded cable service, residents enjoy a vibrant lifestyle with 27 holes of semi-private golf, full social membership at the club, an active women's association with over 45 groups, fitness, grill room and dining/event facilities, tennis, pickleball, heated pool, and 24/7 guard house. Just minutes away are the quaint shops, dining, beaches, biking/walking trails, fishing, performing arts center, cultural venues, and other recreational activities of Historic Venice Island, burgeoning Wellen Park and the greater Sarasota Country area.
