This mid-century modern gem on the Island of Venice comes with a prized Golden Beach private access to the Gulf of Mexico. The well-maintained home was built during the heyday of the Sarasota School of Architecture, and you will love discovering its original hallmarks, including .75-inch thick tongue and groove vaulted wood ceilings and walls, light-filled clerestory windows, the living room's dramatic centerpiece fireplace, and the iconic stacked Ocala block and brick walls with their famous exuberant grid pattern that enhances the Florida landscape and tropical setting. The primary bedroom's en suite main bath addition has a large sauna, walk-in shower and many custom details. The patio is accessible from the screened porch and a charming walkway that winds its way around the property. There is a large, screened porch, an outdoor shower and a workshop with electric, and double doors that open for big projects if you need it. This could be a terrific art studio and storage area. The Island of Venice is one of the most desirable places to live in the U.S., located between Sarasota and Naples. You'll love the island's laid-back style, and enjoy walking and biking to nearby restaurants, shops, yoga and beaches. This home is in a quiet neighborhood, yet it is close to historic downtown Venice shops, restaurants, galleries and theater, plus has easy access to the Venetian Waterway Park bike and walking trail, and the very popular Legacy Trail, a rails-to-trails project that goes to downtown Sarasota to the north and down to North Port to the south.
