Built in 1966, this distinctive three-bedroom, two-bath pool home is one of Ruth Richmond's model homes, representing a special chapter in Venice's architectural history. A Piece of Venice's Architectural Heritage Ruth Richmond was one of Southwest Florida's pioneering female homebuilders and designers. Bringing her creative background and unique eye for design into residential construction, she helped shape the character of homes throughout the Sarasota area and surrounding communities during the mid-century era.

Beautiful butterfly gardens, complete with fountains, garden walls, and sitting benches, create special places to slow down, relax, and enjoy the natural surroundings. Whether enjoying your morning coffee or taking a quiet moment at the end of the day, these gardens present a lovely sense of privacy and tranquility. Adding to the tropical atmosphere are fruit trees, including mango, papaya, and avocado. The backyard is designed for entertaining and enjoying the Florida lifestyle, featuring a heated saltwater swimming pool, outdoor shower, and oversized deck with plenty of room for gathering. With a new salt cell installed in 2024, a new variable-speed pool pump in 2025, and a pool heater, the pool area is ready to be enjoyed. Comfortable Living with thoughtful updates inside, this inviting three-bedroom, two-bath home offers a welcoming kitchen and dining combination featuring stainless steel GE appliances and distinctive Curava countertops, crafted with seashells and recycled glass. Electric blinds and pocket sliding glass doors in both the kitchen/dining area and primary bedroom. Tile flooring and distinctive mid-century details complement the home's individual character. The HVAC system was installed in 2024, with a separate mini-split air-conditioning system in the primary bedroom. The home was re-piped and its sewer lines replaced in 2015. The main roof installed 2012, and the property also features solar panels, hurricane shutters and separate irrigation well. Situated on Venice Island in the OPI zoning district, this property is within walking distance of historic downtown Venice and the wonderful shops, restaurants, and hometown atmosphere of Venice Main Street. Enjoy nearby shuffleboard, pickleball, and tennis, or take a leisurely bike ride to beautiful Venice Beach. Whether it's morning coffee downtown, an afternoon enjoying the Gulf, a game of pickleball, or a relaxing evening in your tropical backyard, this location makes it easy to enjoy everything that makes Venice such a wonderful place to call home.

Just one block from the beach on Venice Island - and outside the flood zone - this private coastal retreat offers a truly rare combination of history, modern luxury, and exceptional space. The original 1941 home has been thoughtfully preserved and beautifully renovated, while the purchase of an additional parcel created the opportunity for an expansive new residence with contemporary features that flow seamlessly together across nearly half an acre. A separate guest suite, generous outdoor living spaces, and timeless architectural character come together to create a one-of-a-kind property, the kind of extraordinary home buyers dream of finding, but rarely do. This is the kind of home that captures the best of Venice Island living. Start your morning with coffee on the front porch, catch a glimpse of the Gulf through the lush landscaping, then take a short walk, bike or golf cart ride to the Venice Beach, Historic Downtown Venice, the farmers market, boutique shopping, restaurants, live music, parades, festivals, and year-round community events. Spend the afternoon by the screened pool and spa, host dinner outside under the covered lanai, or wind down after a sunset beach walk. Whether you are welcoming guests for the weekend, creating a multigenerational retreat, or simply enjoying the privacy of a Gulf-side setting, this property feels like the Florida lifestyle people dream about. The main residence offers four bedrooms plus an office, four full bathrooms, and one half bath, with two bedrooms featuring private ensuite bathrooms and two additional bedrooms sharing an ensuite bath. A separate one-bedroom, one-bath guest or in-law suite with its own private walk-out balcony creates exceptional flexibility for extended family, visiting guests, longer stays, or a private retreat away from the main home. Inside, original character blends beautifully with thoughtful renovations. The kitchen is designed for gathering, featuring solid-wood soft-close cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless-steel appliances, dual sinks, dual ovens, extensive storage, and a large adjoining butler’s bar with additional cabinetry and convenient access to outdoor dining and the pool. The spacious laundry room, formerly the original kitchen, adds even more storage and everyday functionality. OUTDOOR LIVING is a defining feature of this home. Enjoy an expansive screened pool and spa area with covered and open deck space, a rear covered lanai with access to a full bath, a screened dining area directly off the kitchen, substantial front and west-side paver patios, a front screened porch.
