Remarks:

Experience the beauty of true North Florida river living in Fort White, just off the crystal-clear waters of the Santa Fe River. Situated on almost a full acre, this gated and fully fenced 3 bedroom, 2 bath home offers the perfect blend of privacy, comfort, and waterfront lifestyle. Inside, the open-concept design creates a bright and welcoming atmosphere, ideal for gathering with family and friends. The kitchen is the heart of the home, featuring granite countertops, generous cabinet space, and an easy flow into the living and dining areas. A complete remodel in 2007 brought thoughtful updates and modern touches while maintaining a warm, inviting feel throughout. Step out onto the covered balcony overlooking the river and take in peaceful water views and unforgettable sunsets. Whether you're sipping your morning coffee, watching wildlife drift by, or winding down after a day on the water, this outdoor space is truly special. With your own floating dock and private boat ramp, enjoying the Santa Fe is effortless — from boating and kayaking to fishing right in your backyard. Practical features make everyday living just as enjoyable. The property includes a 3-car garage, outside elevator for added convenience, sprinkler system, whole-house generator, and trash pickup service. An optional HOA provides access to a nearby park, giving you even more room to enjoy the outdoors. This is more than just a home — it’s a riverfront retreat where you can relax, entertain, and make lasting memories.
