Villa Chateaugay – A Rare Gulf-Front Retreat Experience a truly exceptional opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind Gulf-front villa that lives like a private single-family home while offering the effortless, maintenance-free lifestyle of condominium living. Perfectly positioned within a welcoming and socially vibrant beachfront community, this beautifully remodeled residence is a rare gem. Villa 1 is the only standalone, single-story residence in the complex - offering the privacy and feel of a Gulf-front single-family home. With over 1,300 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, this fully renovated villa features a private entrance, open-concept floorplan, and an abundance of natural light throughout. Hurricane-impact windows and doors, plantation shutters, and serene peek-a-boo Gulf views framed by coastal dune foliage create an inviting and tranquil atmosphere. The heart of the home is a stunning, modern kitchen designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Outfitted with 42-inch solid wood cabinetry, full-extension dovetail drawers, soft-close hardware, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a tasteful contrasting island, it seamlessly flows into the living space. A blue glass tile backsplash and closet pantry add both style and functionality. The spacious primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with direct access to the air-conditioned sunroom and a private screened porch - perfect for enjoying coastal breezes. The en-suite bath is discreetly tucked away, providing comfort and convenience, while a generously sized walk-in closet houses a full-size stacked washer and dryer, an uncommon luxury in condominium living. Nearly every inch of this villa has been meticulously updated, including water and sewer lines, HVAC system, impact glass windows and doors, new appliances, flooring, trim, solid-core doors, hardware, and all plumbing and lighting fixtures. Additional enhancements such as fresh neutral paint, motorized sunshades in the sunroom, plantation shutters, and an exterior storage room complete the home. Chateaugay is a well-managed and beautifully maintained community known for its friendly atmosphere and engaging lifestyle. Residents enjoy sunset gatherings, relaxing around the heated community pool, and other community activities. This well-maintained community enjoys newer roofs and carports, freshly painted buildings, upgraded landscaping, and attractive paver parking lots. Perfect location - just a short walk to the Venice Yacht Club, Freedom Boat Club, and Crow’s Nest. Villa Chateaugay offers the rare combination of Gulf-front, single-family-style living at a fraction of the price, blended seamlessly with the ease and peace of mind of condominium ownership. Isn’t it time to experience life at the beach in a place this special?
