Tucked at the end of a freshwater canal just east of the Salt River, with access to Crystal River, this charming 2BR/2BA stilt home is a nature lover's dream. Whether you're casting a line, launching a kayak, or heading out by boat, the canal is your private gateway to some of Florida's most celebrated waterways. A well-constructed dock with composite decking makes water access a breeze, while the attractive stone seawall adds both function and curb appeal. The home itself offers 1,248 sq. ft. of heated living space on the second level, featuring 2 bedrooms and 2 baths in a bright, well-maintained interior. Warm tongue-and-groove wood cathedral ceilings give the main living area a cozy coastal character, complemented by durable laminate flooring throughout (tile in the baths and laundry). A large, screened patio and open porch let you enjoy the outdoors in comfort, while the partially enclosed lower level provides a convenient carport and extra storage. No VRBO restrictions here. HVAC replaced in 2023.
