A single-story, detached villa community built in 1972 and governed as a condominium association, Englewood Beach Villas is a low-rise, 55+ gated neighborhood on Manasota Key. Units are primarily two-bedroom, two-bath floorplans arranged as free-standing villas with carports, screened patios or Florida rooms, and modest private outdoor space. Interiors typically feature open living/dining configurations, eat-in kitchens, built-in details, crown molding, solid wood cabinets and stone or solid-surface counters plus walk-in closets and ceiling fans. Exterior elements include French and sliding doors, irrigation and sprinkler systems, outdoor showers, sidewalks and community lighting. Common amenities center on social and recreational life: a large heated pool, clubhouse with upgraded entry systems, shuffleboard, and an active on-site property manager. The association covers many utilities and services—water, sewer, internet/cable, lawn care, building insurance and exterior maintenance—with a reserve structure and insurance-managed storm remediation programs. Parking is surface-level carports; rentals are allowed seasonally with board oversight for longer terms. The complex sits across from Manasota Key Beach within easy walking distance of restaurants, shops and local attractions, offering a salt‑air, beach-centric lifestyle in a compact, managed setting.
