Venice stands apart because it was planned. John Nolen laid out the city in the 1920s with Northern Italian Renaissance-style architecture, and that heritage still shapes its streets around Venice Avenue. Today, many owners are retirees or seasonal residents in condos and single-story homes, so kitchens here are often about comfort, accessibility and storage as much as style.

Our Venice Coverage, From the Island to East Venice Avenue

We have no Venice projects or reviews published here yet, so we will stick to what is true. Venice is part of our standing Sarasota County service area, roughly half an hour from our location, and we schedule visits on the island and across the bridges inland. Our Google listing shows 5.0 stars from 28 reviews from customers around the region.

Landmarks that orient our visits include downtown Venice Avenue, Venice Beach and the fishing pier on the Gulf side, the Venetian Waterway Park along the Intracoastal and the Legacy Trail heading north. Nearby communities with their own pages include Nokomis, South Venice and Plantation.

Some background helps when you plan. The town was incorporated in 1926 and took the name City of Venice in 1927, after landowner Fred Albee hired Nolen to draw its street plan. The 2020 census counted 25,463 residents, 62.8% of them aged 65 or older, and the Venetian Waterway Park trail runs about 9 miles beside the Intracoastal.

What Nolen-Era Homes and Island Condos Mean for Venice Cabinets

Housing in Venice spans a century. A few homes date to the 1920s boom, with thick walls, arches and tile; many more are 1950s to 1980s block ranches; and condos and golf-community villas fill out the rest. Older homes tend to have small, closed kitchens with irregular walls that stock cabinets fit poorly. Condo kitchens are compact and bound by association rules on contractors and hours.

Close to the Gulf, salt air corrodes hardware and humidity loosens joints in older cabinet boxes. For owners planning to stay in their homes, the bigger issue is reach: high uppers, deep corner cabinets and low drawers that are hard on knees and shoulders. Our aging-in-place kitchens page covers pull-down shelving, drawer bases instead of doors, and counter heights planned for the cook.

Recent storms sharpened the water risk. Hurricane Helene pushed several feet of storm surge through parts of the city in late September 2024, and less than two weeks later Milton made landfall just north of Venice near Siesta Key. On the island and along the Intracoastal, that means checking base cabinets and toe kicks for wicking, then choosing boxes, sealed edge banding and coated or stainless hardware that tolerate the next wet season.

Who Permits a Venice Kitchen, and How Do Condo Rules Fit In?

The process is the same three steps everywhere. A salesperson or technician visits, measures and talks through ideas. We develop the design in specialized software and present it in 3D. Then we deliver and install. In a condo, we fit delivery and installation around the association’s approval, elevator reservations and permitted work hours.

Venice has its own building department. Homes inside city limits are permitted through the City of Venice, while unincorporated neighbors such as South Venice go through Sarasota County. If your plan moves plumbing or wiring or removes a wall, a Florida-licensed contractor for that trade performs and permits it, and we coordinate our cabinet work around them. Check licenses at myfloridalicense.com.

Kitchen and cabinet questions from Venice

Can you make a Venice kitchen easier to use as we get older?

Yes. We design with drawer bases instead of deep doors, pull-out pantries, lowered or pull-down upper storage and clear counter space beside the cooktop and refrigerator. The 3D presentation lets you check reach and clearances before ordering. Structural or plumbing changes, such as moving a sink, are handled by Florida-licensed trades under a City of Venice permit.

Do you remodel kitchens in condos on the Venice island?

Yes. Island condos are compact and governed by associations, so we start by asking for your building’s alteration rules. We measure at the technical visit, provide the 3D design for the board, and schedule installation around elevator use and the hours the association allows.

Can seasonal Venice residents remodel while they are up north?

Often, yes. You can complete the technical visit and approve the 3D design while you are in Venice, then arrange access for delivery and installation through a property manager or key holder, within association rules. Our seasonal home remodeling page explains how absentee projects are coordinated.
