Bella Costa is a low-rise, waterfront condominium complex on Venice Island completed in 1974 and organized across four stories. The development primarily offers two-bedroom, two-bath floorplans with features that reflect a mix of original details and periodic updates: built-in cabinetry, crown molding, tray ceilings, solid-surface and stone counters, walk-in closets, ceiling fans, and open living/dining plans. Many units have covered lanais or balconies with views over the complex boat basin and Intracoastal Waterway; some units include impact or hurricane-compliant windows and sliding glass enclosures. Common building elements include elevator access, assigned covered parking/carports, and on-site storage. Grounds are landscaped with garden areas, sidewalks, a courtyard, outdoor grills, fire pit seating, and irrigated plantings. The clubhouse is the community hub with a heated pool, sauna, exercise room, library, billiards/games area and a party room with full kitchen; residents also use shared laundry or in-unit washer/dryer setups depending on the unit. Amenities extend to seasonal boat-basin dock availability and pedestrian connections to the Legacy Trail/ICW. The complex enforces standard condo rules and maintains exterior services, sprinkler and irrigation systems, lighting, and hurricane shutters; pet and rental policies vary by association. Located within easy walking distance of downtown Venice shops, theaters, farmers market and about one mile from the beach, Bella Costa supports a walkable, amenity-focused island lifestyle with boating and recreational options nearby.
