One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Welcome to 278 Crystal River Dr., nestled in the highly desirable Park Forest 55+ gated community in Englewood! This beautifully maintained 3BR/2BA home features an open, inviting floor plan with vaulted ceilings, elegant crown molding, a den, and a spacious Florida room that offers serene pond views. Step outside to the back patio—perfect for relaxing or entertaining while enjoying the tranquil water view. The large kitchen includes ample cabinetry, a cozy breakfast nook/dinette, and an adjoining dining area, ideal for gatherings. Enjoy peace of mind with a portable Duromax generator (home is wired for it, but rarely needed thanks to the shared hospital grid), hurricane-resistant windows and shutters, and low-maintenance living with lawn care, roof cleaning, and exterior painting all covered by the HOA. The primary suite features a walk-in closet and private en-suite bath. Additional highlights include an attached 2-car garage with storage and a wash sink, plus golf cart-friendly streets for easy community access. Park Forest residents enjoy resort-style amenities: a heated pool and spa, tennis and pickleball courts, a clubhouse full of activities, and RV/boat storage. Just minutes from historic Dearborn Street, beautiful beaches, golf courses, and shopping, this home blends comfort, convenience, and community. Come see why so many love calling Park Forest home—schedule your private tour today!
