Welcome to Sawgrass, one of Venice, Florida's best-kept secrets. This gated community blends the ideal mix of location, lifestyle, and craftsmanship. Unlike cookie-cutter subdivisions, Sawgrass features custom-built homes with character, along mature, tree-lined streets, scenic lakes, and fairways. On an oversized corner lot, this meticulously maintained home offers peace of mind and impressive upgrades totaling over $210,000 in improvements over the past four years. Major updates include a new roof, whole-house on call generator connected to a 500-gallon propane tank, hurricane protection, premium cabinetry and countertops, high-end appliances, upgraded HVAC systems (for the home and garage), custom window treatments and more. The garage itself is a standout with custom cabinets, overhead storage, shelving, epoxy floors and full insulation. Inside, you'll find spacious living areas, a versatile bonus room/den, and quality finishes throughout—ready for immediate enjoyment. Sawgrass features nine holes of golf winding through the community, managed by Coral Hospitality as part of a 63-hole network (membership optional). Prefer something different? Nearby, you'll find tennis clubs, the renowned Fox Lea Farms equestrian center, and charming boutiques and restaurants of downtown Venice, just minutes from the beach. Don't overlook this exceptional home in one of Venice's desirable communities. Ask for the full list of upgrades—it's extensive and shows pride of ownership at every turn.
