Venice Farms
Florida coastal homes
Like much of Sarasota County, homes here are commonly found in planned subdivisions most visibly identified by neat rows of detached single-family homes featuring low pitched, tiled roofs, complete with meticulously manicured lawns and palm trees. Prices for many homes in the area around Jacaranda Boulevard and East Venice Avenue fall within the $300,000 to roughly $700,000 range, depending on the age size and location of the property. For example, a modest single-story, three-bedroom home with light-colored siding and a front yard featuring a pair of palm trees can go for $535,000. While another single-story, three-bedroom Spanish revival style recently went for $610,000.

Grab a bite at BrewBurgers
One of the main retail destinations in Venice Farms is the Jacaranda Commons, a shopping center located just off the corner of East Venice Avenue and Jacaranda Boulevard. A Publix grocery store anchors this retail center. For dining options, residents can choose from options a little farther north along Jacaranda Boulevard, like BrewBurgers. Known for its gourmet burgers, some of which are named after the owner’s family members and friends, choices like the “Ollie G.” include homemade garlic and herb cheese, spicy olive tapenade and chipotle ranch dressing.

Explore T. Mabry Carlton Jr. Memorial Reserve
While golf is obviously one of the leading pastimes here, recreation in Sarasota County isn’t limited to leisurely rounds on the courses. The county also has its fair share of natural outdoor destinations. Among them is the T. Mabry Carlton Jr. Memorial Reserve. Located just north of Venice Farms, the reserve offers outdoor activities and plenty of sightseeing. Visitors can hike or bike along the reserve's 100-plus miles of trails, or take the paths on horseback. For the more adventurous, opt to pack a tent and spend the night in the wilderness, or simply spend an afternoon out on the water paddling.
Attend one of state's best high schools for athletes
The highly rated Sarasota County School District serves families in Venice Farms. Students here can attend Taylor Ranch Elementary School, Venice Middle School and Venice High School, all three of which received a grade of A-minus or higher from educational review site, Niche. Among other notable accolades, Venice High School is ranked by Niche as the 10th best high school in the state for athletes. For those seeking alternative options, private institutions like Venice Christian School are also available. The institution describes itself as a non-denominational private Christian school for students from prekindergarten all the way to 12th grade.
Ride the Breeze transit system
The Breeze transit system covers all of the communities across Sarasota County, with the affiliated Breeze OnDemand minivans and SUVs going out to a handful of specific zones. Venice Farms is located right between I-75 and U.S. Highway 41, each of which provides direct connections to the major parts of Sarasota County. Being located right off I-75, residents of Venice Farms can also, on a greater scale, directly travel to their Gulf Coast neighbors like Tampa to the north and Fort Myers or Cape Coral to the south.

Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
