Residential Property - Single Family Residence in Venice
Listing Price: $869,000
Description of Property
This Grand Paradiso residence stands apart for the upgrades buyers can feel from the moment they arrive. Set on a premier lot with unobstructed pond and mature preserve views, this five-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath home delivers exceptional privacy, extensive 2023-2025 improvements, and more than $200,000 invested in Florida living upgrades. Added in 2024, the 5-foot-deep heated saltwater pool with sun shelf and fountain spa creates a true backyard retreat beneath a panoramic screen enclosure. Northwestern exposure brings beautiful afternoon light and sunsets, while multicolor lanai lighting sets the mood after dark. Electric remote shade screens on the covered lanai add comfort, and durable 20/20 screening helps make outdoor living enjoyable year-round. A fenced side yard provides a secure space for pets, while direct lanai access to the first-floor guest suite adds privacy and convenience. The home's exterior was comprehensively refreshed in 2024 with Viwinco hurricane impact-rated windows and exterior doors, PGT impact sliding glass doors, fresh exterior paint, architectural accents and corbels, custom curbing, Florida-native landscaping, new irrigation lines and sprinkler heads. Dual York HVAC systems were installed in 2023, and a generator-ready exterior connection for a portable generator was added in 2025. Inside, the main level is designed for connection and entertaining. A welcoming sitting area with dry bar flows to the dedicated dining area, while the bright kitchen features an oversized quartz island and opens to the main living space. Tall ceilings, transom windows, and a wall of glass sliders fill the great room with Florida sunshine and frame the water and preserve backdrop beyond. Crown molding, decorative shiplap detailing, and thoughtfully selected finishes add character throughout. Upstairs, an open loft is surrounded by the primary suite, three additional bedrooms, and a flexible bonus room currently used as a music studio. Wood-plank flooring extends through the loft, bonus room, and primary suite. The primary offers two walk-in closets plus linen storage in the en-suite bath. Two secondary bedrooms and the bonus space share access to a dual-vanity bath, while another bedroom enjoys its own en-suite bath. A split three-car garage with overhead storage offers room for vehicles, a golf cart, and more. Gran Paradiso residents enjoy resort-style amenities within comfortable walking distance, including the clubhouse, pool, fitness center, tennis, pickleball, walking trails, and an active social calendar. HOA fees under $1,000 per quarter include lawn care, Hotwire internet and cable, and full access to the community amenities, all just minutes from Downtown Wellen Park, CoolToday Park, shopping, dining, and beaches. ¤ Please see 3D Tour and Video ¤
