Virtually Staged. At the end of a quiet Venice Acres cul-de-sac, this 1.1-acre property gives you something increasingly hard to find: room to live close to the people you love without living on top of one another. Two homes in one! A 5 bedroom (plus studio), 5 bath estate with multiple kitchens offers endless possibilities. Three private dwellings surround a screened outdoor living space, the natural center of life here. Arrive through the circular drive, then settle into a property designed for gathering. The main 3-bedroom, 3-bath portion brings vaulted ceilings, a fireplace, new high-end fans, and an upgraded kitchen with stone countertops and bamboo flooring. Sliding doors lead toward the pool and spa, so mornings can start in the breakfast area, and evenings can drift outside without a plan. Just off the garage, a separately air-conditioned flex room creates the space families are always looking for: a home gym, office, playroom, teen hangout, gaming room, or a quiet place to focus. The second dwelling gives the property its rare flexibility. It includes an upstairs with two bedrooms, a full kitchen, and a full bath offering a furnished private retreat. Downstairs, a separate studio with kitchenette and full bath creates a third independent living area. Each space has its own entrance, dedicated AC, septic system, and water heater, ideal for multigenerational living, extended guests, long-term family, or simply a lifestyle with room to breathe. At the heart of it all, the screen-enclosed paver patio brings the homes together around the pool and six-person, 80-jet spa. There is space to lounge, grill, host, or let the day slow down. The fenced yard adds room to play, garden, or keep a horse, while the additional carport can serve as a horse shed. The confidence is in the details: Complete new roof, high-end insulation, fresh paint, new Square D electrical panels, a new well, and a new reverse-osmosis system. Gig-speed internet and four hardwired security cameras support the way life works now. This low-HOA community allows horses and sits within walking distance of Fox Lea Farm, where equestrian events bring energy to the neighborhood throughout the year. Venice Beach, downtown Venice, local dining, shops, parks, and the Saturday farmers market are all within easy reach. This is more than extra space. HOA allows hired help to dwell on the property. It is a place to live independently, come together naturally, and make room for what matters most.

This is over FIVE ACRES in one of Sarasota's most PRIVATE communities, where seeing deer in your backyard is normal, the only traffic you'll hear is birds, and you can finally enjoy the kind of quiet that's becoming incredibly hard to find. Even though it feels like you're miles away from everything, you're less than 15 minutes from groceries and restaurants around Lakewood Ranch, about 25 minutes from downtown Sarasota, and roughly 30 minutes from Siesta Key Beach. You really don't have to choose between CONVENIENCE and PRIVACY anymore. Inside, the home is just over 4,000 square feet with FOUR bedrooms, FOUR bathrooms, plus BONUS room and LOFT space, soaring ceilings, and an open floor plan that was designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The chef's kitchen flows into the great room, while the covered lanai and saltwater pool become an extension of the living space. This home was CUSTOM built in 2016 with hurricane resilience in mind. It features IMPACT windows and doors throughout, a whole-house GENERATOR, and it's about 42' elevated and NOT in a flood zone. When everyone else is worrying about storms, this is the kind of home designed to help you feel prepared. You're just minutes from Lakewood Ranch, but without the high HOA and CDD fees or the cookie-cutter neighborhoods where the view out your window is the side of your neighbor's house. Here there's room to throw the ball, have a garden, or play in the treehouse. Sitting on more than FIVE ACRES, you have room to dream. Add a barn, create a homestead, bring horses, build another structure, or simply leave it exactly as it is and enjoy the PRIVACY that comes with owning this much land. Nestled within The Ranches at Bern Creek neighborhood which has all properties 5-10 acres in size, you will always maintain your peace, even when new development starts filling in around the area. Finding a beautiful custom home with acreage and just a short drive to Lakewood Ranch, downtown, and the beaches—with this level of privacy, hurricane preparedness, low HOA fees, and a location that's still convenient to everything Sarasota has to offer—is incredibly rare.

This is one of the best opportunities for usable acreage in the Sarasota area — ~5 acres with pool, room for barn/workshop, and rural zoning for animals - and only a short drive to Sarasota and white sandy beaches! Set within a rural community where neighbors keep horses, cows, goats and chickens, this well-maintained property offers practical acreage living with the space and flexibility many buyers are craving today.

Inside, this bright and functional home offers 2,355 sq feet of comfortable living space, including 3 bedrooms in a split layout, plus a flex room suitable for an office, hobby space or nursery. There are 2 full baths and a half / cabana bath adjoining the second bedroom.
