Overview

LIVE LIKE YOU OWN A PRIVATE ISLAND—WITHOUT EVER LEAVING THE MAINLAND

Some waterfront homes have a view.

Others have a dock.

This extraordinary Crystal River estate offers something almost impossible to find—it places you in the middle of the water, wrapped by 628 feet of shoreline on three sides, creating the feeling of your own private island while remaining conveniently connected to the mainland.

Once you experience it, you'll understand why properties like this rarely become available.

Before you schedule your showing, take the immersive 360° virtual tour and walk through every room, step onto the dock, and experience the waterfront lifestyle from anywhere in the world.

Nestled on 1.53 beautifully landscaped acres, this completely renovated mid-century home blends timeless Florida charm with modern luxury. Travertine marble flooring flows throughout the home, complemented by rich hardwood interior doors and a wood-burning fireplace that creates a warm, inviting atmosphere.

Every major improvement has already been completed, allowing you to simply move in and enjoy.

• Dual-zoned Trane HVAC systems (2022 & 2024)

• Roof replaced in 2012

• Brand-new GE kitchen appliances (2025)

• New washer and dryer (2025)

Outside, the property becomes your own private nature preserve. Dolphins frequently swim past the dock. Manatees drift through the crystal-clear water. Sandhill cranes stroll across the grounds while majestic oaks and palms provide beauty and privacy in every direction.

The private dock features a 10,000-pound boat lift with Kevlar-wrapped pilings completed in 2026, making it easy to leave for a day of fishing, scalloping, island hopping, or an unforgettable sunset cruise into the Gulf. Here, the Gulf isn't minutes away—it begins in your backyard.

For buyers seeking investment potential, this property has already proven itself. The current owner successfully operated it as a VRBO vacation rental for three years, generating approximately $350 per night, offering an excellent opportunity to continue as a luxury vacation rental, private retreat, or both.

Even more valuable are two opportunities that are becoming increasingly difficult to find:

A transferable flood insurance at approximately $2,000 annually

Seller financing available for qualified buyers

These advantages alone could save a future owner thousands of dollars while creating financing flexibility that is rarely offered in today's market.

Crystal River remains one of Florida's last authentic waterfront communities, celebrated for its crystal-clear springs, world-famous manatees, exceptional fishing, boating, kayaking, and relaxed Old Florida charm. Buyers from across the country are discovering what locals have known for years—this is one of Florida's hidden coastal treasures.

You can always renovate another house.

You can build another dock.

You can even buy another waterfront home.

But finding 628 feet of waterfront wrapped around 1.53 acres with direct Gulf access is an opportunity that may not come along again.

Schedule your private showing today and discover why this is far more than a home—it's a legacy waterfront property.
