440 Casalino Dr

Step into a tropical oasis in the vibrant city of Venice, Florida. This exceptional home combines luxurious living with a captivating tropical flair, transporting you to your own private paradise within the active and beautiful Milano community. This home is just 3.5 years old and offers 3 bedrooms, a separate office (potential 4th bedroom), 2.5 bathrooms, and exquisite features throughout.

As you walk in, experience the warm embrace of this coastal-inspired haven. Impeccable craftsmanship, architectural details, and coastal elements come together to create a seamless blend of elegance and tropical charm. The coffered ceilings in the foyer and great room add a touch of sophistication and architectural interest.

All 2,000 square feet of this home evokes a sense of peace and relaxation, with an open and airy layout that invites the tropical breezes to flow through and is perfect for entertaining. The carefully selected materials and finishes reflect the coastal surroundings, bringing the essence of the tropics indoors in this Neal Communities Home.

The meticulously designed backyard features a custom outdoor kitchen complete with Italian sea glass in the concrete counters to effortlessly entertain and indulge in barbeque delights. As you prepare meals, the tranquil koi pond creates a soothing ambiance, transforming every gathering into a serene and memorable experience. The waterscape is beautifully lit, and solar motion sensor lighting illuminates the private seating area for enchanting evenings outdoors.

The triple slider from the great room to the lanai opens from both sides, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living spaces. A clear Vue lanai screen showcases the entire backyard, providing unobstructed views and extra privacy. Enjoy morning coffee or tea on the extended front porch, a unique feature that was added by the sellers and sets this home apart.

Significant improvements have been made to the home, including custom closet shelving in the master bedroom and extra ceiling storage above the garage doors and shelving on the side walls. The attention to detail and enhancements total $37,000, far surpassing the builder options.

Notable upgrades also include a waterproof sealant applied to the driveway to prevent damage during Florida's summer rains and any possible staining. Additionally, the serene sound of a rambling waterfall in the backyard adds to the soothing ambiance.

While you can easily enjoy tropical days at home, take advantage of the home's central location to six stunning beaches within a 15-minute drive. The Milano community's amenity center is a hub of activity, featuring an on-site activity director who organizes exciting events like poker nights, bingo, and derby parties. Indulge in the resort-style pool, hot tub, fire pit, bocce ball, and pickleball, and savor the vibrant community atmosphere.

Conveniently located near I-75 and downtown Venice, you'll have easy access to charming shops, restaurants, and the theater of performing arts. If you're an outdoor enthusiast, the nearby Legacy Trail offers miles of scenic trails for walking, jogging, and biking.
