Charming, quaint, quiet, and relaxing Homosassa Springs home (not on water) in the heart of swim with the Manatees, Scalloping, and Mermaid country. 2 bedrooms with walk in closets, 1 bath, full kitchen, dining room, living room, and laundry. Gated backyard with double entry gate. Covered parking for one with additional uncovered parking space. Please message me with suggestions for improvements with this posting.
Pleasant and peaceful to sit out on the front patio and listen to the birds sing, watch butterflies flutter, wander out on the grounds to possibly see a rabbit, fox, or gopher tortoise. A short drive to Citrus county rivers and springs – Homosassa, Chassahowitzka, and Crystal. Enjoy Three Sisters, Rainbow Park, Crystal River State Park and Homosassa Springs.
