Neighborhood

The peaceful waterfront community of Venice and Englewood sits on Florida’s west coast overlooking the Gulf of Mexico. Originally established to provide lemon groves, the town retains a natural Old Florida feel with few buildings reaching higher than three or four stories. Fort Myers and Sarasota lie within commuting distance, and Sarasota Bradenton International Airport lies just 30 miles away.

Dotted with charming 50s-style beach homes and vibrant apartment rentals, the area is quintessentially Florida. Back on the mainland, you'll find plenty of golf courses and several parks where residents and visitors can enjoy outdoor activities such as fishing, cycling, and kayaking. With its stunning, unspoiled beaches and a pleasant year-round climate, you’ll feel as though you’re on a permanent vacation when you live in an Englewood/Venice apartment.
