ALL ABOUT VENICE, FLORIDA. And a tour of an affordable listing I have on the market!

WHERE IS IT: Located south of Osprey and Nokomis, which are two unincorporated towns just of Sarasota. From North Sarasota it took me 37 minutes to get to this property.

WIKIPEDIA SAYS:
Venice is a city on Florida’s Gulf Coast. It’s known for Venice Beach, with its offshore coral reef, and Caspersen Beach, where shark teeth are often found. Multi-use trails hug the Intracoastal Waterway in Venetian Waterway Park. Other green spaces include Centennial Park, with its interactive fountain, and the Monty Andrews Arboretum at West Blalock Park. Oscar Scherer State Park is home to Florida scrub jays.

THE BEACHES ARE GREAT:
– With 14 miles of beaches, Venice, just south of Sarasota on Florida’s Southwest Coast, is the place to go for plentiful shopping, family-friendly saltwater adventures, and Old Florida charm.
– Easily reachable by foot from the downtown area, Venice Beach, a certified Blue Wave Beach, is the city’s most popular stretch of coastline, where visitors can look for fossils and reef dive a quarter-mile from shore.
– Sunbathe on the soft white sand, swim the clear turquoise waters of the Gulf, cast a line from the 700-foot Venice Fishing Pier, and hunt for fossilized prehistoric shark teeth in the Shark Tooth Capital of the World.

Bike the Venetian Waterway Park Trail, shop Historic Downtown Venice, which is full of historic buildings reminiscent of its namesake Italian city, and see why Venice was named a Top Five Suburb for City-Like Living and one of USA Today’s 10Best Must-Visit Beaches in the South for 2023.

DOG BEACH:
– located in South Venice, just south of Sharky’s!
– they can run off leash, it’s one of the only true dog beaches in the Sarasota County area!

OLD MAIN STREET:
– Plan your trip at Venice MainStreet.
– Just like it sounds, with low lying properties, you wont see hi-rises or tall buildings, just quaint, older, well maintained buildings from the 1920s – Present.
– Great boutique stores
– Exceptional dining, especially Italian cuisine
