Property Description
The historic Eagle Point Club in Venice is an exclusive waterfront community located within the privacy of mature foliage on the east, with Roberts Bay and the Intracoastal Waterway on all other sides. The only one of its kind, it was a creation circa 1910 by Bertha Palmer, famed figure in the early development of Sarasota County's Gulf, Bay and Waterfront lands. Eagle Point is a hidden gem, still mostly unknown and unseen by the crowds. Consisting of 24 acres of just 50 homes, 10 are original structures, listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The history is rich, but the focus today is on the pristine residence at 726 Eagle Point Dr. Situated on over 1/3 of an acre, the 1920-built home is move-in ready for the next lucky owners to fall in love with. Updates have been thoughtfully accomplished including the luxury kitchen and baths that are designed to seamlessly maintain the historic ambiance. High ceiling above, original heart of pine flooring below, shaded porches on 3 sides continue the ambiance. Updates in recent times include a perfectly-sized pool, heated and caged, that create outdoor living area of approx. 42X63, built in 2014. The beautifully designed free-standing 2+ car garage and storage building, built in 2011, is as handsome as it is functional. The amazing bonus amenity is the vintage clubhouse that includes guest rooms on the 2nd floor PLUS the free-standing 3-bedroom guest house next door, both of which may be reserved for visiting guests of homeowners. For those seeking a highly desired and unique Florida home, be sure to make an appointment to view this one-of-its-kind property.
