Located in Willowbend, this expansive residence offers a rare blend of space, privacy, and long-term potential, set against tranquil water and preserve views with Oscar Scherer State Park as a stunning natural backdrop. Offering over 3,500 square feet of living space, the home provides exceptional flexibility for buyers looking to personalize a well-designed layout. High ceilings, architectural detail, and abundant natural light create an immediate sense of openness, while the flowing floor plan connects the main living areas with ease. The home has seen several meaningful improvements that enhance comfort and functionality, including luxury vinyl plank flooring installed in 2025 throughout all bedrooms, the flex room/office, and the second-floor living space, along with new carpeting on the stairs and new ceiling fans in the primary bedroom, living room, and office. A 2025 York AC unit services the second floor, providing efficient and independent climate control. Natural gas is another notable feature, with a gas range in the kitchen and a gas hookup on the rear lanai, ideal for an outdoor kitchen or direct grill connection. Outdoor living is a highlight, with a pool and expansive screened lanai overlooking serene water and preserve views, offering a permanent no-build backdrop and a peaceful connection to nature. A massive second-floor living area with a full bath and screened balcony adds significant versatility and can easily serve as a media room, guest suite, private retreat, or home office. Located across the water and backing Oscar Scherer State Park, and just minutes from downtown Venice, Sarasota, golf, waterfront dining, and Pine View School, this property offers a compelling opportunity for buyers seeking size, setting, and the ability to create a home tailored to their vision in a highly desirable location.
