Main amenity area completed at Zuckerman Homes’ Venetian Pointe
SOUTH FORT MYERS — In addition to meeting neighbors and enjoying the restaurants, shops, parks and beaches located close to their custom estate villa homes, Venetian Pointe residents now have their own main amenity area.
The just completed Venetian Club is where residents can work out in a state-of-the-art fitness center, relax or swim in the resort-style pool, or lounge on the outdoor patio in the sun or in the shade.
“Designed to be one of the centerpieces of the community, the Venetian Club was positioned so it’s within walking distance of every home in Venetian Pointe,” said Andrew Zuckerman, president of Zuckerman Homes.
Venetian Pointe residents also have sidewalk paths that wind throughout and around the community for leisurely strolls or active jogs.
Situated on 50 acres, Venetian Pointe by Zuckerman Homes is a community of only 100 well-appointed custom estate villas. Four furnished models are open daily and five inventory homes are available for immediate purchase. Prices start in the upper $200s.
"The home designs at Venetian Pointe have never been available in any other community,” said Zuckerman. “That includes the courtyard entries, which create a very private, intimate and tranquil atmosphere that continues right into the foyer and throughout the residence.”
In addition to the amenities, open floor plans, furnished models and pricing, there are four other major reasons buyers have been deciding to purchase at Venetian Pointe.
The first is there are no Community Development District (CDD) fees. Second, the HOA fees are low. Third, due to the elevation of the community, flood insurance is not required. And fourth, the community has natural gas for cooktops, water and pool heaters, dryers, and outdoor grills.
“Many buyers have told me that they purchased in Venetian Pointe because, when they added up the monthly costs of living in a surrounding community, including the HOA and CDD fees, along with the cost of flood insurance, they discovered they could get much more for less at Venetian Pointe,” said Zuckerman.
At Venetian Pointe, buyers have a choice of five fully customizable one- and two-story floor plans. The homes range from 1,500 to almost 3,000 square feet, with volume ceilings providing an even more open and spacious feel.
Chef-inspired kitchens include natural gas, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, soft-closing wood cabinetry, plus pantries and breakfast counters (per plan).
Every residence also features a well-appointed master suite with coffered ceilings and his and her walk-in closets, as well as a spa-inspired master bath with his and her sinks, a vanity, and a stand-alone shower.
All homes also offer a backyard and a Florida room, as well as a two-car garage with a separate area for a workstation, studio or extra storage.
While each floor plan at Venetian Pointe is carefully designed to encompass what homebuyers are looking for today, Zuckerman offers the opportunity to customize each home to the buyer’s specifications.
“We believe that every home we build should be as unique as our homeowners,” Zuckerman said. “That’s why our design process allows buyers to create and customize their home with finishing touches, to make it a reflection of themselves.”
Adding to the appeal of the homes at Venetian Pointe is the beauty of the neighborhood itself. Zuckerman Homes is a strong believer in preserving natural elements and minimizing its impact on the environment. Within the 50 acres of Venetian Pointe, Zuckerman Homes has set aside over one-third of the property for preserves and lakes, allowing the architecture of the homes to interweave with the picturesque surroundings of the area.
To complete the maintenance-free lifestyle, professional lawn maintenance is provided throughout the community.
The Venetian Pointe sales center is open daily at 8150 Venetian Pointe Drive, at the corner of Gladiolus Drive and Summerlin Road. Online at VenetianPointe.com.
