Property Description

Discover an extraordinary opportunity in The Waters of Weeki Wachee, one of Hernando County's most prestigious gated riverfront communities, where luxury, privacy, and natural beauty meet. This offering includes an immaculate 3,637 sq. ft. two-story pool home on an expansive 0.82-acre corner lot, plus the adjoining 0.66-acre vacant lot, creating a rare nearly 1.5-acre private estate. Residents enjoy 24/7 staffed security, tree-lined streets, tennis and basketball courts, and a peaceful community park and fountain directly beside the property. Watch the manatees swim up the Weeki Wachee River from the newly renovated community viewing deck, or swim or kayak from the community river-access point. Community kayak racks offer convenient storage close to the water. Recent upgrades include a new roof (2024), updated HVAC system, and new water heater. The home welcomes you with a 14x10 foyer, crown molding, 5.25'' baseboards, and refined finishes throughout. A formal living room with French doors, transom windows, and faux-painted ceiling opens to an oversized dining room with bay window and chair rail accents. The spacious family room features a wood-burning fireplace, rustic wet bar, and floor outlets, while the gourmet kitchen offers granite countertops, butcher block breakfast bar, custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances including a 6-burner stove with grill, indirect lighting, and a brass farm sink. An 11x13 breakfast nook with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooks the koi pond with dual waterfalls. The 48x22 screened enclosure includes a Diamond Brite electric-heated pool, paver decking, and heated spa, complemented by a 48x13 glass-enclosed lanai with dual split A/C units for year-round indoor-outdoor living. Upstairs, the primary suite features a large walk-in closet, built-ins, and a spa-like bathroom with jetted tub, mosaic tile shower, dual vanities, and bidet-style toilet. Additional bedrooms offer generous space, while the downstairs bedroom—with sliders to the lanai—works perfectly as a guest suite or home office. The property's outdoor setting is equally impressive with mature landscaping, shaded oaks, koi pond, motion lighting, and a wooded swing overlooking the neighboring fountain. The included vacant lot enhances privacy, expands outdoor living options, and provides long-term potential for future construction (per HOA guidelines) with peaceful lake/pond frontage within the same gated community. Additional features include a large laundry room, dual-zoned HVAC, hot water recovery system, irrigation well, public water/sewer, generator hookup, and a well-organized 2-car garage with workshop flooring and storage systems. This combined property offers timeless elegance, river access, privacy, and exceptional functionality—an opportunity rarely available in this sought-after community.
