Reply to comment by mmomtchev in James Webb Space Telescope finds no atmosphere on Earth-like TRAPPIST-1 exoplanet by locus_towers

Plus, Venus is technically in the Sun's Goldilocks Zone. If it weren't for the runaway greenhouse effect, it might as well have been habitable. There are some models that do hint that Venus had water oceans like Earth for a few million years before its atmosphere took a turn.

If you're curious not just about Venus, but for most of the planets and how they evolved, then I'd recommend watching the Mini Series 'The Planets (2019)' hosted by Brian Cox. It's only 5 episodes and they're pretty informative.
