This is a boater's dream home. The Withlacoochee River is crystal clear and maintains a year round temperature of approx 72 degrees. This river is direct access to the Gulf of Mexico. You can enjoy fishing from your dock, watching the manatees gently float about, or simply soak in the serenity that only the water can offer. Kayakers are fun to watch as are paddle boaters cruising down the river. The property is very private but also very close to Crystal River Town and all the restaurants and shops. The home itself will thrill the most discriminating buyer. First, it is meticulously clean and well cared for. The floor plan is awesome for entertaining and the coastal beauty will bring you an abundance of peace and pride of ownership. The kitchen was designed for the chef in the family with dual pantries for all your gadgets, a huge island with bar stools and a drop desk at the end. Every top smart appliance you can think of has been installed plus a separate freezer for all the food you will need on hand for your company. The formal dining room shares a fireplace with the living room that is oh so cozy. Perhaps the most popular rooms in the house will be the family and Florida rooms. Each has an outstanding view of the river and swimming pool. Additionally, outside of the family room is a pavered entertaining area with firepit for those chilly evenings and toasting marshmellows. To cool off is an above ground pool with wooden deck and fencing to be in compliance with the insurance requirements. It is a lap pool and can be enjoyed year round. Since you will probably have lots of guests, the bedrooms are a split plan so you will still have your privacy. Off the primary bedroom is a flex space where your imagination can design so many wonderful areas, home gym, office or nursery.. What does your lifestyle need? Just a sitting room to enjoy the beautiful view of the river, that works too! As if this wasn't enough, there is a large detached carport to store all your toys. It is a great place to put your boat if it isn't in the water or on the lift, an RV for camping, that dream car or 4 wheelers and dirt bikes.. You have room for it all. This property is just under an acre (.92) so you have plenty of room for everything and everybody. Getting to this home has never been easier. With the new Sunshine turnpike, getting here from Tampa is a breeze. This home will check off all your boxes. The sellers are forced to sell due to an employment change out of State, so schedule your appt today. You will be so glad you did.
