Sansovino is a water front condominium located in Venice Florida on the Gulf of Mexico.
Sansovino is a 10 story high condominium that was built in 1976 with 7 units on floors one through eight and 5 penthouse apartments on the top floor. The bottom floor is not occupied but houses the recently upgraded Club Room and mechanical rooms. Each and every one of the 61 apartments face west, each offers a clear view of the Gulf with its glorious nightly sunsets. In 1999 Sansovino had a complete facelift with the replacement of sliding glass windows on the lanai which faces the Gulf of Mexico. The complete replacement of the cast iron plumbing pipes was completed in November of 2003. Sansovino is a fully sprinklered for fire protection and has excellent reserve funds for future replacement of major repair items.
Gulf fishing is superb, either directly off the beach in front of Sansovino or deep sea fishing off charter or private boats. Boating enthusiasts can delight in the modern marina just a short distance from Sansovino. Golf, tennis and horseback riding are nearby. Our own Sansovino beach is a fine locale for swimming, sunning, shelling, or finding fossilized sharks teeth. We are located between the Venice public beach and the Venice Jetties. Churches, adult education and modern medical care facilities are also within easy reach.
VENICE
Many communities; one beautiful area.
If a chamber of commerce needed a model city for the annual brochure, it would surely select Venice, Fla.
Nestled along the Gulf of Mexico on the west coast of Florida about 75 miles south of Tampa, the Venice area is actually five communities of Venice, South Venice, Nokomis, Laurel and Osprey. The incorporated area of Venice has a population of about 17,000, while the greater Venice area totals about 84,000. The city of Venice was incorporated in 1927, and it has a rich history.
Venice is a great place to live and visit because of its friendly atmosphere, parks, miles of beaches and pleasant weather. Moderated by the breezes from the Gulf of Mexico, the summer heat and mild winter chill are more often than not just the right level. The average annual temperature is 75 degrees Fahrenheit, and the waters of the Gulf will rise to a high of 89 degrees in the month of August. The winter low in Gulf waters averages about 70 degrees Fahrenheit.
Most of the year's average rainfall of 51 inches comes in the early summer months.
The Venice area boasts more than 14 miles of beaches, from Osprey and Casey Key to Manasota Key. Venice has long been considered the "Sharks Tooth Capital of the World," so it goes without saying there are unlimited opportunities to find any size tooth along the shoreline.
Other recreational advantages of Venice include golf, tennis, swimming, boating, surfing (when the winds are up), picnicking and, of course, hunting for shells.
