Jacaranda Trace is a gated 55+ senior-living community in Venice, Florida, located along Cadbury Circle in the 34293 ZIP code. Set on more than 30 landscaped acres, the campus combines independently owned condominium and villa residences with Jacaranda Trace’s broader retirement-living program, dining, wellness services, recreation, transportation, and healthcare options.
One important distinction for buyers is that Jacaranda Trace includes more than one type of residency. Individually owned condominiums and villas within Woodmere at Jacaranda continue to be bought and sold through the traditional real estate market, while residences offered directly through Jacaranda Trace use a membership and Life Lease structure rather than conventional real estate ownership.
Jacaranda Trace Condos & Villas
Real estate opportunities within the Jacaranda Trace campus primarily include condominium apartments in the Whittier Manor buildings at 3730 Cadbury Circle along with detached and villa-style residences located around Cadbury Circle.
Condominium floor plans range from smaller one-bedroom residences to spacious two- and three-bedroom units. Current and recent MLS properties vary from approximately 600 square feet to more than 2,200 square feet, depending on floor plan and location within the building.
Many condos include screened balconies or lanais, walk-in closets, interior laundry, open living and dining areas, and assigned covered or under-building parking. Upper-floor units may provide elevated views across Venice, while lower-floor residences may offer patios and easier ground-level access.
Detached villa residences provide a different style of living, with larger floor plans, private entrances, garages, screened outdoor spaces, and more of a single-family-home atmosphere while remaining within the Jacaranda Trace campus.
Woodmere at Jacaranda
The individually owned condominium and villa residences are associated with Woodmere at Jacaranda, a 55+ condominium and villa community within the larger Jacaranda Trace setting.
These properties remain conventional deeded real estate and may be listed for sale through the Multiple Listing Service. Condominium fees generally cover various building and common-area expenses such as exterior maintenance, landscaping, water, sewer, trash, pest control, insurance, and other association services, depending on the specific residence.
Fees, insurance responsibilities, reserves, maintenance obligations, pet policies, leasing restrictions, and association rules can vary, so buyers should review the current Woodmere at Jacaranda condominium documents and financial information before purchasing.
Jacaranda Trace Club Membership
Buyers of certain individually owned condominiums and villas may have access to additional Jacaranda Trace services and amenities through an optional club or membership arrangement. Membership terms and availability should be verified for the individual residence because they are not necessarily included automatically with every deeded property.
Depending on the current membership program, services and amenities may include dining, recreation, wellness programs, housekeeping, transportation, concierge services, fitness facilities, and other lifestyle benefits.

Life Lease Residences at Jacaranda Trace
Not every residence at Jacaranda Trace is conventional real estate. Jacaranda Trace also offers apartments and villas through a Life Lease membership program.
Under the current Jacaranda Trace program, residents pay an upfront membership fee and ongoing monthly membership fee rather than purchasing the residence through a traditional deeded sale. Monthly membership benefits can include utilities, real estate taxes, insurance, dining allowances, housekeeping, maintenance, transportation, security, wellness services, concierge assistance, and other services.
Because Life Lease residences are not conventional real estate purchases, they should be evaluated separately from the individually owned condominiums and villas that appear in the MLS listings below.
