2178 Park RoadVenice, FL 34293Price: $218,500

Move-in ready 2-bedroom, 1-bath in the established Venice Groves neighborhood, being sold fully furnished. Updated throughout and easy to maintain. The remodeled kitchen has shaker cabinets, granite counters, stainless steel appliances, a subway tile backsplash, and pendant lighting over a breakfast bar that seats three. A bay window nook with original wood shutters makes a great spot for morning coffee. Both bedrooms have wood-look tile flooring (which runs throughout the home, no carpet anywhere), ceiling fans, and fresh neutral paint. The updated bathroom includes a tiled tub/shower combo, framed mirror, and modern vanity. Out back, a fully fenced yard with new horizontal wood privacy fencing, a patio for outdoor dining, and mature palms. The standout is the oversized backyard shed, a workshop-sized structure with overhead storage and shelving, room for tools, equipment, ladders, bikes, and lawn gear. Rare to find that kind of space on a home this size. A recently installed water purification system and new well pump mean the major systems are already handled. Curb appeal comes from the tropical landscaping, stone pathway, and stained-glass front door. The home sits in Flood Zone X (no flood insurance required), with no HOA and no CDD fees. Great as a starter home, seasonal getaway, or investment property. Minutes to Venice Beach, downtown shopping, and Gulf Coast dining.
