People come from all over the world to visit Crystal River and swim with the manatees. It is one of the most endearing experiences to swim beside these gentle giants for which Crystal River is world-famous. Our fresh springs bubble up at 72-degrees year-round which protects these mammals from the cold winter months in the Gulf of Mexico. Now is your chance to live adjacent to a protected Manatee sanctuary that also provides sanctuary for you in your waterfront backyard! The canal is restricted during Manatee season and only homeowners that live on this spring-fed canal can enter with their boat. We are a walkable in-town neighborhood where you'll meet your neighbors out with the dog or just getting their exercise! Perhaps jumping in the golf cart and zipping around to street cafes, boutique shops, waterfront restaurants, fish markets and Tiki Bars is more your style. Pete's Pier is just down the street for all your marine supplies and amenities. Enjoy a multitude of festivals throughout the year hosted on downtown streets and city parks where music fills the air. The gorgeous tile floors are a solid investment, and the roof was installed in Mar 2021. Beautiful curb appeal thanks to the new paver driveway, Zoysia grass and landscape curbing with large river rock inside the beds keeps the maintenance minimal. The enclosed sunroom has a nautical-themed tongue 'n groove wood ceiling and a dedicated mini-split A/C unit for comfort all year long. Crown molding is featured in all the main living areas and a 13x10.5 walk-in closet is just waiting for you to fill. A covered boat slip with lift and composite decking complete with fish cleaning station is everything you need to keep your boat clean and ready to go! The floating dock is also made with composite decking and has a kayak launch built in. Come renew your dreams on the Crystal River.
