Set on a rare double lot, this character-filled property blends vintage charm with thoughtful modern updates. The home features 3,219 SF of living space on a 7,261 SF lot with 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, including a guest unit with its own laundry setup. Inside, the house is cleverly divided, with a second kitchen, full bedroom, and bathroom tucked away from the primary living area. This well-crafted layout is ideal for multi-generational living, a rental opportunity, or a separate workspace. The main living area is warm and welcoming, anchored by a cozy fireplace and exposed wood beam. Sunlight pours through oversized windows, illuminating the stainless steel appliances and generous counter space in the kitchen. Upstairs, the primary suite is a peaceful escape with a double vanity, soaking tub, separate shower, and striking iridescent tile. The other bedrooms are bright and well-proportioned, with high ceilings and ample space to adapt to various needs. The backyard is private and intentionally landscaped, surrounded by mature trees and vibrant plantings, creating a tranquil setting for gathering or quiet relaxation. With its rare lot size, flexible layout, and detached guest unit, the property offers space, privacy, and the potential for future expansion or redevelopment in a prime location. Situated in the heart of Venice, this home is just moments from its iconic shops, cafes, and coastal lifestyle.
