I think that in the EWoCS system early Venus (and Early Mars) are both considered to be Gaian worlds. I think both worlds would be significantly different from each other, and from the Early Earth; but they would probably both have some quantity of liquid water. There is no guarantee that Venus ever held lifeforms, but it would be very interesting if it did. There might even be some relict lifeforms there now, but I am skeptical about that.
