As you turn onto Quist Drive and arrive at 5440, the oversized driveway and tropical landscaping immediately set the stage for this Gulf-access waterfront property in Richey Cove. Approaching the covered front entryway, wood shutters and a charming seating area create the perfect spot to dine alfresco or savor your morning brew. A glass door with internal blinds opens to an interior filled with natural light that cascades across the freshly updated paint and wood-plank tile flooring. The living and dining room combination enhances the open floor plan, highlighted by contemporary lighting that brings a modern, elevated feel to the space. Just off the dining area, the updated kitchen blends style and efficiency with recessed lighting, shaker soft-close cabinetry with a lazy Susan, a striking hexagon tile backsplash, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances including a range hood, and thoughtfully chosen modern fixtures. Adjacent to the kitchen, the second bedroom offers generous space and features sliding glass doors that frame views of the canal and provide direct access to the outdoor paradise beyond. Down the hall, the full bathroom showcases an updated vanity, stylish fixtures, and refined tile finishes paired with a built-in shampoo niche. The third bedroom is impressively sized and includes updated flooring and sleek glass-panel closet doors. The primary bedroom provides a serene retreat, complete with updated tile flooring and a walk-in closet with glass-panel doors. The primary bathroom is nothing short of stunning, featuring recessed lighting, a dual-sink vanity, modern fixtures, an open-style walk-in shower, and an additional walk-in closet for exceptional storage. This completes the thoughtfully updated interior. Step outside to a true Florida oasis. The expansive backyard features lush landscaping, fencing for privacy, and a wooden deck outfitted with an outdoor grilling station and sink—ideal for gatherings, cookouts, or relaxing evenings by the water. Enjoy breathtaking sunsets over the canal, enhancing the already picturesque outdoor space. A large shed offers ample room for tools, kayaks, and fishing gear. And then there’s the best part: panoramic views of the canal leading directly to Miller’s Bayou, offering the quintessential Gulf-access lifestyle. Notable Updates: Roof (2018), Ac (2024), Water Heater (2024) — insulated to significantly reduce heat loss, cutting standby energy waste by 25–45%, lowering energy bills by 7–16%, keeping water hotter for longer to improve supply, and decreasing the heater’s workload to extend its lifespan. Seawall Replaced (2017). Recently updated: Drywall, Painting, Kitchen Cabinets, Bathrooms, and Flooring. This home is perfectly positioned within walking distance—or a quick golf cart ride—to Port Richey Waterfront Park, waterfront restaurants, and shopping. Just around the corner are Robert K. Rees Memorial Park and the Pithlachascotee (Cotee) River, making this coastal location truly unbeatable. The sunsets are waiting for you!
