About this home

Welcome to a beautiful waterfront retreat in the heart of Lake Geneva Estates in Melrose, Florida, where everyday living feels like a private getaway. This exceptional 3-bedroom, 2-bath canal-front home offers the perfect rural living: sweeping water views underneath the most beautiful oak trees. From the moment you arrive, the paved driveway leads you to an inviting entrance that sets the tone for what’s inside. Step through the door into a spacious open-concept living area where high ceilings and a panoramic layout seamlessly connect the living room, kitchen, and dining space. The kitchen is designed for both function and gathering, featuring abundant counter space and sleek stainless steel appliances. Anchoring the living room is a warm brick wood-burning fireplace, creating a cozy focal point that flows naturally into the Florida room, where walls of windows showcase stunning canal and island views. The primary suite is a peaceful retreat with a generous walk-in closet and a private en-suite bath. An interior utility room adds everyday convenience and functionality. Outdoor living is where this property truly shines. An oversized garage provides ample storage, while the screened lanai invites you to relax and take in serene views of the canal just beyond your backyard. A patio overlooks lush green grass that invites all the wildlife to entertain you, your own natural sanctuary waiting to be explored. Nature surrounds you here, with frequent sightings of whistling wood ducks, sandhill cranes, deer, and more, creating a peaceful and vibrant wildlife backdrop. Tucked away in a quiet, desirable neighborhood, this property offers the rare combination of privacy, waterfront living, and convenience, just minutes from local restaurants, shopping, and everyday essentials. And best of all, NO HOA. Offered at $397,500, this is more than a home, it’s a lifestyle, a retreat, and an extraordinary opportunity to own a slice of Florida paradise. *Additional 8.2 acre island lot available at $97,000
