1141 SLEEPY HOLLOW COURTVENICE, FL 34285

This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Pinebrook South offers 2,118 square feet of living space with a lake view from the rear, a brand-new roof, and one feature that doesn't appear anywhere else in the neighborhood: a loft accessed by a spiral staircase. The loft — 15 x 9 feet, carpeted, private — works equally well as a home office, creative studio, or reading retreat. It's the kind of space that changes how a home functions on a daily basis. The main floor is open and efficiently laid out, with cathedral ceilings, luxury vinyl flooring, a split bedroom plan, and granite countertops in the kitchen and baths. The primary suite is oversized at nearly 24 x 13 feet with a walk-in closet and en suite bath. The two additional bedrooms each offer built-in closet storage. Out back, an enclosed lanai and open outdoor area face the lake directly. Eagles, osprey, hawks, and roseate spoonbills are regular visitors. No CDD fee. Pinebrook South is a deed-restricted community with a large heated pool, clubhouse, shuffleboard, and a private boat launch on Curry Creek — which connects to the Gulf of Mexico. HOA: $501/year. Located minutes from Venice Beach, Historic Downtown Venice, and Gulf Coast dining. Vacant and easy to show.
