Description

Waterfront opportunity with endless possibilities! Discover the potential of this waterfront gem, offering a rare opportunity to create your dream coastal retreat. The property experienced storm surge flooding during hurricanes Helene and Milton, but it now stands as a blank canvas for the next owner, whether you choose to build new or restore the existing structure. With drywall and cabinetry already removed, the work has begun. Imagine the possibilities with direct, no-bridge access to the Intracoastal Waterway, just 1,000 feet from your private dock. The dock pilings and end stringers appear sound, ready for new decking to bring it back to life. Convenience and community await! Enjoy a short boat ferry ride to Caspersen Beach and easy access to the boat launch ramp, both provided by the South Venice Civic Association for a modest annual membership fee. Just across the bay, the South Venice Yacht Club offers another vibrant community to explore. Nature and recreation are at your doorstep. Bike to Manasota Beach via quiet streets, avoiding busy main roads, and enjoy breathtaking sunsets along the coastline. Picture an elevated Key West-style home here, delivering panoramic views of the water and serene mangrove forest. This is your chance to own a slice of paradise with unmatched potential so don’t miss it.
