Overview

Description

A very special waterfront home in arguably one of the best locations in the desirable canal community, Crystal Lakes, just a short golf cart or bike ride to the nearby Beach access. Nestled at the end of a dead end street, this charming home has ownership of approximately 155' of waterfront on two sections of the pristine, nature rich waterway that connects directly to the Indian River. Both areas offer a bit more shelter from strong currents, etc than if directly on the open River & much more privacy and open water views than your typical canal home. Private boat house w/lift and a kayak launch make it easy peasy to get out and enjoy some time on the water! The home has been lovingly cared for and features many quality improvements, including a high end metal roof, all impact glass windows, several newer appliances, a new aerobic septic system and much more ! Definitely a rare bird, so call today to schedule a private tour !
