Description

Welcome to the ultimate resort-style living at GRAN PARADISO in Wellen Park! Perfectly situated on a lake along one of the friendliest streets in the community, this Tuscan-inspired ORCHID Villa boasts 2 bedrooms with a den, 2 bathrooms, and a 2-car garage. It has been lovingly and meticulously cared for by its original owners since 2017. As you stroll through the covered and screened porch, you'll be embraced by a soothing neutral palette and delightful upgrades. Crown molding graces the public areas, master bedroom, and ensuite bathroom with custom lighting, fans, and elegant tile flooring throughout the home…NO CARPET. The kitchen is sure to please with ample storage, expansive counter space, under-cabinet lighting, a breakfast bar, and a designer backsplash accentuating the granite countertops, 42” wood cabinets, and stainless-steel appliances. The spacious great room, dining area, and kitchen are ideal for everyday living or entertaining and flow seamlessly through sliding glass doors with elegant plantation shutters into an expansive covered lanai with additional coverage provided by the screened lanai. Just imagine unwinding or hosting friends from your own backyard oasis with breathtaking views of a tranquil lake and nature. The Master Bedroom is bathed in natural light through double windows and a slider with plantation shutters. The ensuite bathroom is a spa-like retreat with a garden soaking tub, separate shower stall, dual sinks, and his & hers closets with custom organizers. The guest bath, near the private second bedroom with a custom closet organizer, is perfect for visitors. If you need a home office, space to play, or an extra bedroom, the spacious den has you covered. The laundry room has additional cabinets to meet your storage needs. Even the garage is upgraded – epoxy flooring, attic stairs, a new garage door opener (2023), and a water softening and purification system. Safety and security are enhanced with quick-close accordion hurricane shutters and an electric Kevlar hurricane screen across the lanai. Breathe easy with a UV filter on the HVAC for better health. Here's the kicker – the PREPAID CDD bond is your annual money-saving bonus.

    "The EastGate neighborhood is a hidden gem. There are a number of nice, older homes on good-sized lots, with many being upgraded with every new owner or already renovated. There are also many future opportunities as you look around. It's a perfect location between historic downtown Venice on the Island, and east to I-75 and the new areas being built out there. There's a Publix a block over and Venice Avenue isn't as busy as Route 41. Even with all the growth and new development, this part of Venice remains low-key and very pleasant. The homes here are a good value for the money and worth either buying and renovating, or buying an upgraded one. One of the best areas in the city that is not on the island, and my family has been here since the early 90s."
