Englewood Real Estate

Just south of Venice is the sleepy beach community of Englewood. With a population of just over 15,000, Englewood is a great place to relax, play golf, lay on the beach, and just take it easy.

There are many great restaurants and there are numerous festivals and special events that take place throughout the year.

If you are looking for a small-town atmosphere but still want to be close to the excitement and amenities of bigger cities, you should definitely consider Englewood. It is less than two hours from Tampa, about two hours from Fort Myers, and a little less than 4 hours to Miami or Orlando.

It is also ideal for people who love nature. Englewood borders Myakka State Forest. The state forest is an excellent place for viewing wading birds and other wildlife. The park also offers camping, hiking on over 40 miles of trails, off-road bicycling, horseback riding, and small-game hunting.

Nearby communities include Venice and Boca Grande.
