Description
NEW ROOF in 2025! Welcome to Hourglass Lakes, the “Hidden Gem” of South Venice! From the moment you arrive in this charming, all-ages community of just 80 villas, you’ll feel just how special it truly is.
Tucked toward the back of the neighborhood, this WATERFRONT two-bedroom, two-bath villa with a spacious two-car garage offers both privacy and comfort. Enjoy your morning coffee in the screened and gated courtyard just off the kitchen and primary suite with rebuilt deck in October 2026. An adorable patio sits right off the dining area in the great room!
A bright Florida room, connected to both the living room and primary suite with sliding glass doors, adds even more flexible space to enjoy. The home’s split-bedroom layout places the primary and guest suites on opposite ends of the home for maximum privacy. A hidden pocket door creates a secluded guest area with its own bath-perfect for visitors.
Storage is plentiful, featuring a coat closet in the foyer, linen closets in both bathrooms, a generous walk-in closet in the primary suite, a roomy guest closet, and even attic access with pull-down stairs. The oversized, two-car garage includes a utility sink, space for a workbench or storage, and a conveniently located utility nook housing the HVAC system and water heater. Inside, the laundry/mud room offers additional cabinetry and ample space.
The eat-in kitchen is well-equipped with abundant cabinet storage, LED lighting, a new stainless steel dishwasher, new SS stove & range hood garbage disposal, side-by-side fridge, and a stainless steel range hood. Much of the interior has been freshly painted as well! Outside, adjustable Bahama shutters provide shade while still letting in natural light and views.
The covered, screened front entry is great for protecting visitors and deliveries from the elements. The low HOA fee includes access to the private clubhouse with a heated (and summer-cooled) pool and a spa, along with professional management and landscaping services! Residents enjoy an active lifestyle with clubs, games, social events, and regular gatherings.
Located just a few miles from Manasota Key, Englewood, and Venice beaches, you’ll have easy access to dining, shopping, golf, nature spots, medical facilities, and more. Come see for yourself-schedule your showing today and discover your new Venice retreat in Hourglass Lakes!
