The story
Welcome to Crystal Cottage, situated on two spacious lots, this beautifully remodeled, fully furnished home blends charm, comfort, and investment potential in the heart of Crystal River — the “Home of the Manatee.” Featuring 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and an additional oversized office or flex space, this versatile property truly checks every box. Step outside and enjoy direct access to the Crosstown Trail walk/bike path, which leads to Crystal River’s most beloved attractions — including the river itself, paddle craft rentals, manatee tours, snorkel and dive shops, and three stunning parks: Hunter Springs, Kings Bay, and the world-famous Three Sisters Springs. Downtown dining, boutique shopping, live music, and local entertainment are all just a short walk away. While centrally located, the home still offers a private tropical escape. The expansive back deck overlooks lush landscaping, creating the perfect setting for relaxing mornings or entertaining guests. Looking for beach time? Fort Island Beach is just a quick 12-minute drive. Golf lovers will appreciate being only 5 minutes from Plantation’s newly-reopened golf course. Boaters will love the ample space to park a boat onsite — with no restrictions. Currently operating as an income-producing investment, Crystal Cottage offers endless possibilities: continue its success as a profitable Bed & Breakfast, use it as a vacation retreat, or make it your full-time home.
