Description

Panoramic golf views of the 11th fairway of the Bobcat course are yours to have living in this "sun-kissed" 2 bedroom, 2 bath maintenance-free home. You'll love the convenient location of this home as it is set in the desirable private enclave of The Villas of Somerset, located in the heart of the Plantation Golf and Country Club where your choice of membership is available but not mandatory. This popular great room plan home boasts hardwood floors, vaulted ceilings and basks in the morning suns' warmth and rays throughout the main living areas including the sunroom courtesy of the eastern exposure in the back. The eat-in kitchen has granite counters and stainless appliances with easy access to the covered porch for barbecuing. Step outside to the paver patio to serve dinner enjoying gulf breezes and friendly conversation under the stars making plans for the next day. The spacious 2-car garage has plenty of room to store your bikes, golf clubs, basically all beach and Florida toys. Take a few minutes' walk down the street to the neighborhood pool to meet your neighbors, friends or take your family for some fun in the sun. Recent improvements include freshly painted exterior in 2024, AC in 2020, the roof was replaced in 2013, and the home has been re-piped for peace of mind. This centrally located gem is within a 15-20 minute drive to your choice of beaches, downtown Venice with restaurants, shopping, shark tooth hunting and yoga on the beach and downtown Wellen Park, home of the Atlanta Braves stadium also offering a diverse array of shopping, dining options and entertainment. The choices are endless, you'll be asking yourself why you waited so long to make the move!
