Waterfront living with a vacation mindset—offered fully furnished and turnkey at $975,000! This Hernando Beach retreat combines a private pool, waterfront recreation, and an established vacation-rental history. Enjoy it as a personal getaway, full-time residence, or continued rental opportunity—with furnishings, games, kayaks, bicycles, and kitchen essentials included! The owners and their guests did not experience any flooding in the home during the hurricanes of 2023 or 2024. Set at the end of a cul-de-sac, this four-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath home features an interior elevator and dumbwaiter. The main living level offers an open layout, tray ceilings, beautiful water views, and 12-foot pocket sliders opening to a covered, screened balcony. The expansive three-sided balcony invites morning coffee and evening relaxation. The spacious kitchen features a granite island, induction cooktop, walk-in pantry, and coffee bar. The primary suite includes balcony access, dual walk-in closets, and an updated bath, with three additional bedrooms completing the main level. Downstairs, additional finished recreation space offers expansive gaming and gathering areas, plus split two-car and one-car garages. The lower-level finished area is not included in the reported living square footage. Outside, enjoy a screened, solar-heated saltwater pool with waterfalls, generous paver entertaining areas, outdoor dining space, a fenced yard, and a floating dock with kayak launch. Go from poolside to paddling in moments, exploring scenic mangroves along the way for a distinctly Florida experience. Approximately 20-30 minutes by kayak to Gulf waters, depending on pace and conditions. Gulf access for suitable boats is available through the community boat lift. Fish from the dock, explore by bicycle, or gather around the fire feature after sunset. A 2019 metal roof and an extensive collection of included amenities complete this ready-to-enjoy waterfront package. Bring your suitcase and start enjoying it!
