156 GRAND OAK CIRCLE, VENICE, Sarasota, Residential – MLS #N6146251

Virtually Staged. Welcome home to Hidden Lakes Club, a gated Venice community just minutes from the Gulf beaches and I-75. Lush, mature landscaping welcomes you as you pull into the oversized driveway. Inside, this updated home offers 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, a den and an oversized 2 car garage, with a bright, open floor plan, high ceilings and tile throughout the main living areas. Sliding glass doors span the back of the great room and open to the true showpiece of this home: an oversized screened lanai that wraps around the side of the house. Picture slow mornings with coffee, quiet afternoons with a good book and evenings hosting friends as the breeze moves through, all while you look out over a beautifully landscaped backyard with tall trees, lush greenery and no homes behind you. It is private, peaceful and simply stunning, the kind of view you never get tired of. The kitchen features quartz counters and a coastal blue glass tile backsplash, a fresh, welcoming space where cooking for two or for a crowd feels easy. The dining area is framed by windows and filled with natural light. Your primary suite is a true retreat with a walk-in closet plus a second closet, both with built-ins, and a private bath with a granite double sink vanity, walk-in shower and separate water closet. The second bedroom has its own adjoining bath, so guests feel right at home, and the den is ready to become your office, craft room or reading space. The large laundry room offers generous cabinet storage and a utility sink. The side-entry garage adds built-in cabinets and plenty of room for a workshop or extra storage. The big updates are done for you, with a 2023 tile roof, 2020 AC, 2022 water heater, whole house PEX repipe and storm shutters for the entire home. Spend your days at the community pool, on the sand at Venice beaches, biking the Legacy Trail or enjoying dinner in historic downtown Venice and Wellen Park. This is the Florida life you have been dreaming of, and it is ready for you now.
