Property Description
Welcome to 12185 Stuart Drive – a beautifully upgraded model in the sought-after Grand Palm community of Venice, Florida. This stylish and efficient 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom plus an office with a Murphy bed Celebration Series home features a private pool and is packed with thoughtful upgrades inside and out.
Step inside and enjoy elegant crown molding, plantation shutters, and rich maple cabinetry that elevate every room. Recent improvements include a new A/C (2023), hot water heater (2022), and a complete exterior repaint (2024). The home is equipped with new hurricane-impact windows featuring Storm Smart storm catcher screens, a radiant barrier in the attic, and natural gas for cooking, pool heating, water heating, and drying clothes—all contributing to its certification as a Florida Green Home for energy and noise efficiency.
The oversized garage offers generous storage space, including pull-down stairs for easy attic access. Located in unincorporated Sarasota County, the property benefits from lower taxes and Paid CDD fees, just a nominal annual fee—a rare find.
Whether you're a young family or a retiree, Grand Palm delivers an unmatched lifestyle with amenities for all ages. Enjoy lap and fitness pools, one with a waterslide, scenic walking and biking trails, two dog parks, and a variety of sports courts for basketball, tennis, pickleball, bocce, and volleyball. Everyone will love the splash park and playground, and everyone can explore the private Lookout Point Island for fishing, kayaking, or peaceful nature walks.
Spread across 1,005 acres just southwest of Center Road and River Road, Grand Palm is a nature lover's paradise, with about 330 acres of preserved open space, including nine miles of wildlife corridors. At its heart lies the stunning Adventure Lake, spanning 32–39 acres with an eight-acre island perfect for outdoor adventures.
Recognized by Where to Retire magazine as one of America's Top 50 Master-Planned Communities in 2017, Grand Palm offers a rare blend of resort-style living, natural beauty, and community spirit.
