Welcome to VENETIAN FALLS, a gated 55+ community in the heart of Venice and only 10 minutes from area beaches. If you're looking for an active community with the feel of a luxury resort, this is it! This lovely end unit villa greets you with a welcoming screened-in front entryway, a warm prologue to the lovely interior. Inside, you'll find an open concept floor plan with two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a den/office. The bedrooms are located on either end of the villa for complete privacy, with the den/office situated in the middle of the villa for versatility. It's a great floor plan! The kitchen is large enough for a convenient pantry and a breakfast nook, adding charm to your kitchen and a little extra seating, too. High ceilings are an added bonus and lots of windows bring in tons of natural light. Easy-to-maintain tile flooring spans throughout. A screened lanai provides peaceful views of the preserve, a perfect spot for casual dining or early morning coffee and nature watching. The primary suite features two closets, and an updated ensuite bathroom with dual vanities and a walk-in shower. The second bedroom and bathroom are located at the front of the villa, offering privacy for guests. The laundry room connects to an oversized two-car garage. Venetian Falls has a spectacular 16,000 square-foot resort-style clubhouse complete with a billiards and card room and an Internet cafe with computers. Work on hobbies in the Arts & Crafts room or attend a social event in the meeting room. The Grand Ballroom, complete with a dance floor and catering kitchen, is the ideal location for the community's many parties, dances, and on-site live entertainment. The state-of-art fitness center provides both cardiovascular and strength-training equipment as well as an aerobics studio for classes and yoga sessions. The luxurious pool area includes a whirlpool spa, a resort-style pool and a resistance pool for exercise. Want to stay even more active? Then try your hand at the 9-hole putting green and four bocce ball courts. For a slower pace, the community is surrounded with beautiful walking and biking paths as well as scenic ponds. VENETIAN FALLS truly offers something for everyone in a beautiful setting. Call this "home" today!
