Aripeka, a 120-acre angler's paradise with a rich history and State Historic Site designation, has even welcomed a few famous visitors over the years, including Babe Ruth and Jack Dempsey.

Aripeka, a 120-acre angler's paradise with a rich history and State Historic Site designation, has even welcomed a few famous visitors over the years, including Babe Ruth and Jack Dempsey. Just down the road, Hernando Beach offers a one-of-a-kind, canal-driven waterfront lifestyle - with one small catch: there's no actual beach! So, what makes this area SO SPECIAL? How often can you look up at the night sky and actually SEE THE STARS, then be just 10 minutes from shopping, 15 minutes from seeing REAL-LIFE MERMAIDS, 20 minutes from beautiful white-sand beaches, and under 30 minutes from freshly crafted beer or spirits? Add in BEAUTIFUL SUNSETS, SECLUSION, and CONVENIENCE, and you have a truly special place to call home. And then there's this EXTRAORDINARY GEM... Built in 1979 and thoughtfully modernized in 2025, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers an open-concept floor plan filled with natural light, plus an office/den - IF you can find it! (Wink, wink.) That's right... there's a HIDDEN ROOM! Inside, you'll find luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout the main living areas and ceramic tile in the bathrooms, ceiling fans in the bedrooms and living and dining rooms, solid wood cabinetry, and granite countertops. And 2025 brought A LOT of NEW! Updates include the water heater, HVAC, septic pump with alarm, garage door, all plumbing above the slab, kitchen appliances, electrical breakers, all doors, nearly every window, and fresh interior and exterior paint. Whew! That's a LOT of NEW! The screened-in back patio runs the full length of the home and overlooks a fenced backyard with mature landscaping, offering privacy and a shady retreat from the Florida sunshine. And speaking of water... the home is located directly across the street from the canal and just down the road from the community boat ramp. The surrounding grass flats, tidal inlets, and marshes are prime spots to cast a line for trophy redfish, snook, and spotted seatrout. Beautiful, secluded, updated, and still so close to everything - this is the rare Nature Coast gem you've been waiting for!
