This 1959 very unique 2-bedroom One-bath stilt home is located on the north end of Crystal River just walking distance to Citrus Avenue and other restaurants & shops in Downtown Crystal River. The lot is .37 acres and is registered as 6 lots in total with a spring fed title creek along the back side. There is plenty of room under the home and alongside the home for boat or RV parking. The home was raised and remodeled in 1995 and the current owner has lived there for 23 years. The home has a large sunroom, kitchen, bathroom, living room with wood fireplace, back storage room and tons of storage underneath the home. The property is being sold As-Is and needs some work. The metal roof is older and has some leaks that need attention or replacement. The potential is amazing and could be used as vacation home, fish/hunt club type lodging, or a primary residence for the right group. We are quite sure that short term rentals are not allowed in Crystal River City Limits.
