About this home

Nestled along the pristine, spring-fed waters of the Weeki Wachee River, this 1 bedroom and 1 bath home offers a rare opportunity to own a slice of paradise. Imagine waking up to the crystal-clear, 74-degree waters where manatees gracefully glide past your private oasis. Boasting 54 feet of river frontage, this 1-bedroom, 1 bath home was damaged during Hurricane Helene and is ready for transformation! Whether you choose to fix it, reimagine the interior, raise it, or build a new home. This prime waterfront property offers endless potential. Perfect for various lifestyles, whether as a primary residence, vacation getaway, or lucrative short-term rental investment. With a history of high rental earnings on platforms like Airbnb and no HOA or rental restrictions, you have the freedom to maximize its potential. The R3 zoning permits RV parking and usage, adding to its versatility. Recent river regulations prohibit anchoring along its banks, ensuring exclusive river access for residents. The property includes a concrete seawall with stairs leading down to the water's edge, ideal for scuba diving, swimming, and snorkeling. Just upstream lies Hospital Hole, a renowned 140-foot sinkhole attracting manatees, dolphins, and diverse marine life, drawing enthusiasts for its therapeutic sulfide layer. Located in Weeki Wachee Gardens, a tranquil riverfront community just 60 minutes north of Tampa International Airport, this enclave offers a nostalgic escape from urban life. Accessible via the Suncoast Parkway and secluded from major highways, it promises serenity amidst the natural beauty of old Florida. Weeki Wachee Gardens epitomizes outdoor living with activities such as boating, fishing, scalloping, and snorkeling right at your doorstep. Residents cherish encounters with manatees and enjoy the river's constant allure, thanks to its steady flow from Weeki Wachee Springs, a local landmark since the 1940s. This natural wonder winds through a state park before meeting the Gulf of Mexico, offering endless adventures for outdoor enthusiasts. Discover the magic of Weeki Wachee Gardens, where riverfront living merges with the charm of yesteryears, inviting you to embrace Florida's timeless beauty and vibrant outdoor lifestyle.
