Discover coastal living in this classic 2-bedroom, 2-bath concrete-block cottage ideally located on Lemon Bay Drive, just five homes from the South Venice Beach Ferry. South Venice residents may join the South Venice Civic Association for optional access to the community ferry to South Venice Beach, the neighborhood boat ramp, and the kayak/canoe/paddleboard launch. This light-filled home features timeless terrazzo flooring, new windows, a new air conditioning system, and a new water heater. Multiple screened outdoor spaces include a 24' x 10' side patio and a 5' x 22' front patio, perfect for enjoying the Florida breeze. A 10' x 15' bonus room, surrounded by windows and enclosed with pocketing French doors, offers exceptional flexibility—use it as an office, den, creative studio, or convert it into a 3rd bedroom. A large utility closet, currently outfitted as a handyman’s project room, provides valuable extra space for tools, hobbies, or storage. The home is offered turnkey furnished for immediate enjoyment. The backyard offers privacy along with a dedicated pad for kayak storage and a fully enclosed outdoor shower—ideal after a day on the water. Low-cost water-softening equipment and a recently serviced septic system help keep utilities budget-friendly. If timing is important, the seller is open to a leaseback or extended closing through April 2026. Located just minutes from the Tamiami Trail, this home provides quick access to shopping, dining, Shamrock Park, and the Venetian Waterway Park/Legacy Trail system. Manasota, Venice, and Nokomis Beaches are all a short drive away, along with nearby golf courses, community events, and the amenities of historic downtown Venice and Englewood.
