This elegantly renewed 2-bedroom waterfront retreat pairs thoughtful modern updates with the timeless charm of river life, creating a sanctuary for paddlers, boaters, and dreamers alike. Inside, the home has been lovingly refreshed with a newer kitchen, new subfloors, and hardwood floors throughout. An updated bathroom, fresh interior paint, and a new roof with a lifetime warranty elevate both comfort and peace of mind. Sold furnished, it’s ready for immediate enjoyment—whether as a turnkey rental, vacation escape, or full-time residence. Outdoors, the magic deepens. The screened porch becomes your private observatory as manatees glide past, fish leap in flashes of silver, and otters trace playful patterns along the shoreline. The sea walled waterfront, private dock, and dedicated kayak launch deliver effortless access to the stunning Weeki Wachee River, with the Gulf just 4 miles beyond. Adding to the property’s charm is a vintage camper nestled beneath string lights, complete with a picnic table that evokes the breezy, nostalgic glow of Old Florida. The camper can be purchased with the property, offering creative possibilities for guests, storage, or personal retreat. A fire pit and park-style charcoal grill extend the living space outdoors, inviting evenings under the stars and slow, river-tuned gatherings. For more than a decade, this home has thrived as a 5-star short-term rental with a proven 6% cap rate and room for increased returns. Seller will transfer existing bookings and booking sites to an Investor Buyer. Did we mention that this property has not flooded?! Immerse yourself in nature and enjoy a slower pace while being conveniently only minutes to town and its modern offerings. Tampa is less than an hour away and Orlando's theme parks are only 90 minutes away! Tons of local and chain restaurants can be found close by. Here, life unfolds in the gentle rhythm of the tides, where mornings begin on the water, nights end beneath the lanterns of a vintage escape, and the Weeki Wachee River becomes both neighbor and guide. Welcome to a rare slice of Florida’s enduring beauty.
