Welcome to one of Solivita's classic estate homes, the Venetian, a 3 bedroom/3.5 bath model sitting on a 1/4 acre lot nestled in the desirable Portofino neighborhood. Entering the home through the double glass entry doors, it features 2616 square feet of a well laid out split floorplan with 3 bedrooms, each with it's own en suite bathroom. A roomy, functional gourmet kitchen with plenty of counter and cabinet space makes cooking and entertaining a delight. Granite counters and a custom backsplash add to the charm of the kitchen. Special touches throughout the home include a whole house water filtration system, no carpet, an alarm system (owned), rounded corners, a tray ceiling in the master bedroom and a coffered ceiling in the Dining Room. A deep full 3 car garage easily allows plenty of room for two cars and a golf cart, with room left over for a work shop. It also features ample overhead rack storage and removable vertical hurricane reinforcement supports for the garage doors. A 23 Panel Solar system installed in late 2022 provides enough power to run the home, reducing the electric bill to just the service charge (based on the last 6 months). The owner has paid off the debt portion of the CDD further reducing the new owner's costs. The HVAC was recently replaced and exterior of the home was repainted in June of 2023. Enjoy the greenbelt and water view, while sipping your morning coffee, from your 3 season Florida Room with removable vinyl windows.
