101 BASE AVE E #101, 103
$895,000
A premier income-producing property on Venice Island, this fully renovated mid-century duplex blends exceptional craftsmanship with modern luxury. Just blocks from the Gulf of Mexico, this residence is ideal for high-demand rentals, an executive retreat, or a live-and-rent investment, offering strong income potential in a prime coastal setting. Designed and enhanced by skilled artisans with decades of expertise in custom woodworking, the home showcases coffered ceilings, elegant crown molding, and custom-milled window casings. 7’ mahogany interior doors with sleek chrome hardware add warmth and sophistication, while new plumbing, electrical systems, HVAC ductwork, PVC drain pipes, and drywall ensure long-term durability. Safe and Sound Rockwool insulation enhances privacy, and the shared laundry room wall between units 101 & 103 has been soundproofed for added comfort. The open-concept layout is designed for both style and function, featuring porcelain tile flooring throughout—no carpeting anywhere. The modern kitchens include deep white farmer’s sinks, elevated cabinetry, quartz countertops, and premium appliances, while canless LED lighting, ceiling fans throughout, and USB charging outlets provide contemporary convenience. All windows are hurricane impact-rated, except for the sliding glass doors. Each unit extends outdoors with its own private screened and covered lanai, creating a peaceful retreat to enjoy the fresh coastal air. Oversized carports with additional storage offer plenty of space for vehicles, beach gear, and personal belongings. The front yard is landscaped with all shell and no grass, making it both low-maintenance and visually appealing. Mature, oversized trees in the front yard provide shade and character, while the side yard features simple landscaping for added charm. With zero-scaped landscaping, upkeep is minimal, allowing more time to enjoy the Florida lifestyle. This dog-friendly neighborhood is perfect for walking, with quiet streets and a welcoming atmosphere. Venice’s year-round tourism market ensures strong rental demand, with visitors drawn to its pristine beaches, the Venice Fishing Pier, and popular waterfront dining at Sharky’s on the Pier. Nearby boating access, scenic trails along the Venetian Waterway Park, and historic downtown Venice offer shopping, dining, and entertainment in a charming, walkable setting. NOT in a flood zone, NO HOA or CDD fees, all of which both lessen the hassle of more rules and overall profits. With its high-end upgrades, low-maintenance landscaping, and prime island location, this property presents an extraordinary opportunity to own a luxury duplex in one of Florida’s most desirable coastal communities. Whether maximizing rental income or enjoying an elegant island retreat, this is an investment in both lifestyle and financial success. Additional professional photos coming soon to highlight the incredible appointments, the location and sunset of this unique duplex opportunity.
