About This Home

As of September 2025

Tucked away on nearly 1.25 acres along the Upper Steinhatchee River, this one-of-a-kind property offers peace, privacy, and everything a true outdoorsman could want. With over 260 feet of river frontage and bordering thousands of acres of state land, it's the kind of place where you can truly unplug and reconnect with nature. The home itself is a cozy and functional 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom setup that feels like the ideal home in the country. One of its best features is the large screened-in porch, which can be accessed through French doors off the living room or the front entrance. Whether you're hosting a fish fry, enjoying family time, or simply relaxing with a book and a breeze, this space offers plenty of room to entertain while taking in some of the most peaceful and beautiful river views you'll find in the area. Inside, there's a warm and inviting atmosphere, but the real magic happens outside. The yard has not one, but two fire pit areas. Perfect for gathering with friends or winding down after a day on the water. Under the house, there's a large storage area to keep your fishing gear, kayaks, and anything else you need close at hand but out of the way. What really sets this property apart, though, is the wildlife. From birds playing right outside the bedroom window to watching otters and manatees cruise by as you sip your morning coffee, the experience here is unmatched. The surrounding community also offers miles of winding dirt roads, perfect for four-wheeling, side-by-side rides, or quiet afternoon bike rides through the woods. It's a haven for those who love to explore the outdoors in every way. Whether you're looking for a quiet weekend retreat or a full-time home that feels like a step back into simpler times, this property delivers. It's private, peaceful, and full of potential for the right buyer who wants a little slice of Old Florida charm along the river.
