Sarasota County is often associated only with Sarasota proper - Prospective homebuyers are often delighted to discover, just to our south, the charming (and growing) town of Venice.
Reaping all the benefits of being in Sarasota county - like fantastic schools and a short drive to all things "famous" about this area - Venice remains slightly detached with an energy all its own.
A few traditional reasons Venice is favorite - and a couple new ones - include:
* Homebuyers can still find a Florida boating and waterfront lifestyle for under $250,000
* Beachfront condos can run up to 30% less than in other areas
* Beaches are traditionally less crowded, and therefore more conducive to long walks, shelling, shark tooth hunts and sea turtle nesting. Venice Beaches, especially at the jetty parks, are often cited as "the" place to spot manatees and dolphins
* Venice has experienced a bit of a rebirth, with revitalization on the Community Center, the opening of a new modern movie theater, and the groundbreaking of a new YMCA complex
* Dog lovers will be thrilled at the "Paw Park", a pet friendly state park that encourages interaction with our favorite best friends ( an incredible 40 parks occupy the relatively little town of Venice, amazing in their diversity)
* Venice Main Street offers quaint "old time" events including Christmas walks complete with sidewalk carolers and hot chocolate. Year round, Main Street is reminiscent of the way things used to be, with unique "mom and pops" and ice cream parlors dotting the tree lined avenue.
All of this is within 20 miles of Sarasota's vibrant downtown, making Venice a terrfic place to consider for your family, your retirement, or your vacation.
