854 BAYPORT CIRCLE

Picture your day starting like this: coffee in hand, sliders open, sitting in a glass-walled lanai that looks straight out into the trees. That is everyday life in this 3-bedroom, 2-bath villa in Venice’s 55+ Chestnut Creek. Inside, vaulted ceilings make the living and dining area feel open and relaxed, and the kitchen flows right from the living area, so whoever is cooking never misses the conversation. Mid-morning, you’re at the heated community pool or out on the pickleball court with your neighbors. Afternoons might mean lunch in downtown Venice or a walk on Venice Beach looking for shark teeth, and you can stay for the sunset over the Gulf. At the end of the day, the primary suite is tucked away on its own side of the home, with a walk-in closet and a private bath with a walk-in shower. When guests come to stay, they get their own side too, with two bedrooms and the hall bath. When they leave, the extra room becomes your office, craft room or reading room. There’s also an inside laundry room and an attached garage. Less house to take care of. More days that feel like vacation. Come see it for yourself.
