The openness of this home is its best feature, including the large open kitchen with HUGE kitchen island & sliding glass doors that open to the outdoor pool side living area. The smart TV on the patio makes it ideal to swim, grill out, fish and watch TV all while still outdoors enjoying the very best of the Nature Coast without the afternoon sun!
Make yourself comfortable in any of the three spacious bedrooms. This waterfront home sleeps 8 people (Max 6 adults). The pool overlooks the wide deep water canal. Bring your boat and dock it on our floating dock. There is also a boat launch just 3 minutes away from the property.
All bedrooms have smart TV's. In the living room you will find a twin size trundle bed that sleeps two, perfect for children.
The screened in sunroom/Lanai/patio has a large flat screen smart TV that overlooks the pool, water and floating dock. It is the perfect location for hanging out after a long day on the water.
This home is located on a deep canal with Gulf access. VERY large boats access this canal easily. There is one bridge going out to the Gulf but it is 40 feet high, so NO height restrictions. The house is about 5 miles from the scalloping grounds & approximately 5-10 minutes drive from King’s Bay, 3 sisters springs, and hunter springs and 35 minutes from the Gulf of Mexico by boat
There is room in the driveway for two vehicles & a boat trailer. No parking in garage, grass or street areas at anytime.
