All that's left to do is unpack and enjoy the Florida lifestyle. Step through the front door and you're greeted by soaring vaulted ceilings and a bright, open floor plan that feels equally at home hosting family and friends or settling into a quiet evening by the cozy wood-burning fireplace. Luxury vinyl plank flooring flows throughout the main living areas, complemented by tile in the wet areas and plush LifeProof stain-resistant carpet(2022) in the bedrooms.

At the heart of the home is the beautifully appointed kitchen, updated with stainless steel appliances(2023) and positioned to keep you connected whether you're preparing meals or entertaining guests. Pride of ownership shines throughout with thoughtful improvements completed year after year, including a new HVAC system(2021), vinyl privacy fence(2022), custom window treatments(2022), updated bathroom exhaust fans with timers(2024), new garage openers (2024), professional tree maintenance(2025), refreshed lighting and ceiling fans(2026). This home also includes an automatic attic fan for those hot summer days, finished attic storage, and a sprinkler system. Step outside to your own private backyard oasis, where mornings begin with coffee under the covered lanai and evenings are spent entertaining on the extended paver patio(2026). The fully fenced backyard offers endless possibilities with plenty of room for pets, gardening, outdoor games, or even a future pool, all while enjoying the privacy of the beautifully maintained 0.57-acre homesite. As an added bonus, the ZERO-TURN MOWER can be purchased with the home with acceptable terms, making maintenance effortless. Life in River Country Estates extends well beyond your front door. This vibrant community is designed for connection, featuring pickleball and basketball courts, playgrounds, picnic and grilling areas, and neighborhood events. Enjoy the convenience of being just minutes from Weeki Wachee Springs, kayaking, boating, scenic hiking trails, shopping, dining, and the best of Florida's Nature Coast. With major updates completed between 2021 and 2026, generous indoor and outdoor living spaces, and a setting that perfectly balances privacy with everyday convenience, this exceptional home is ready to welcome its next owners!
