The spacious primary suite captures beautiful water views and includes an en-suite bathroom and walk-in closet. The kitchen, living room, and family room connect easily to the backyard, making the most of the waterfront setting and Florida’s indoor-outdoor lifestyle. A spacious indoor laundry room just off the two-car garage offers additional storage and a practical mudroom area. Venetian Isles is an established deed-restricted community with buried utilities, natural gas, and an optional HOA.
