Overview

Description

Tucked between the Atlantic Ocean and the Indian River, this Melbourne Shores property offers a rare opportunity to live surrounded by nature. The backyard feels like a private wildlife sanctuary, with native plants, butterfly gardens, and fruit trees including mango, coconut, Barbados cherry, banana, and moringa. Enjoy birdwatching and peaceful garden views from the oversized screened porch. Recent improvements include a newer roof (11/23), AC (10/23), 80-gallon solar water heater (1/25), replaced propane tank (2025), and newer electrical panel (9/25). A whole-home water filtration and softener system, gas cooking, and energy-efficient upgrades support comfortable coastal living. Just a short walk to deeded beach and river access, where you can watch ocean sunrises, kayak the Indian River at sunset, and enjoy nearby riverfront parks with a boat launch, fishing pier, and picnic areas. A unique blend of coastal lifestyle, nature, and sustainability
