804 Boccaccio Avenue, Venice, CA 90291

Description

This 1923 Spanish Revival in Venice blends timeless character with the kind of flexibility buyers are constantly searching for but rarely find. With 2 bedrooms, 2 baths in the main house, a detached studio w/ a full bathroom, and fully permitted ADU potential, the property offers a layout that can evolve right alongside the next owner's lifestyle. Tucked into the quieter Venice Gateway pocket just moments from Abbot Kinney, the Venice Canals, and the beach, the home sits on a rare street-to-street lot with separate access off Woodlawn Avenue, creating added privacy and long-term versatility. A mature California oak frames the front of the property, while inside, the home opens into warm, light-filled living spaces anchored by a dramatic floor-to-ceiling fireplace, Saltillo tile entry, hardwood floors, and Pella casement windows and doors throughout. The kitchen was designed for real everyday living, featuring a long skylit island, professional range, generous cabinetry, and an easy indoor-outdoor flow for entertaining. One bedroom opens directly to the garden alongside an updated bath with a rain shower and natural finishes, while the more private primary suite features custom closet detailing, a soaking tub, bamboo views, brass accents, and layered design details that give the space warmth and personality. Out back, mature landscaping and a generous deck lead to a detached studio with its own bath, oversized skylight, and stained-glass Dutch door. Whether used as a guest retreat, office, creative workspace, or future income opportunity, it adds another dimension to an already special property. A soulful Venice home with architectural charm, privacy, and the kind of adaptability that's becoming increasingly rare on the Westside.
