Under contract-accepting backup offers. Welcome to this gorgeous custom-built 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom, oversized 2 car garage waterfront oasis in Hernando Beach North. Perched on a quiet cul-de-sac and situated on a deep-water canal, Sanchez Canal, reported to be 18 feet deep, this elevated home offers direct Gulf access with no bridges, ideal for serious boaters and anglers. Pie-shaped 1/5 acre lot with 150 feet of seawall frontage, the outdoor living spaces are exceptional. 10 unique areas including two private docks, a pool, gazebo, waterfront patio, upper & lower covered decks, beach-style dining area, treehouse, dog run with turf, and xeriscaped front yard for easy maintenance. A 4-car driveway adds convenience. The home showcases impressive craftsmanship with hand-built wood staircases, wood floors, vaulted ceilings, wood shiplap, window casings, crown molding, and beadboard accents. The main living space is elevated out of the floodplain and features a large great room with dining area and Anderson Low-E dual pane energy-efficient windows that capture stunning water views. The kitchen includes solid wood cabinetry, tile countertops, a stained wood island, and stainless appliances: refrigerator, range, microwave, trash compactor, dishwasher, and disposal. A built-in desk in the entry nook offers the perfect space for remote work. French doors from the great room and primary suite lead to a 50-foot-long covered balcony that spans the rear of the home and provides beautiful views of both sunrises and sunsets. Nearly every room in the home offers water views. The upper level also includes a laundry area with a stacked LG washer and dryer and three well-appointed bedrooms with window coverings. Downstairs, the finished bonus room features Spanish tile and a mini-split AC system, a large back room that could be used as a bedroom, workshop, or storage. Oversized 2-car garage features an epoxy floor and ample storage. Major updates include: new roof in 2021, new AC in 2020, new interior electrical panel in 2022, and exterior panel components replaced in 2023. The home also features a tankless water heater, whole-house surge protector, regularly maintained termite bond, and monitored security system through Guardian. Most doors and all windows are sensor-equipped, with a few exceptions on the lower level. Ring doorbell, floodlight camera, and additional security cameras convey with the home. Two large sheds and one smaller poolside shed also convey. Backyard retaining walls were recently added. One of the highlights of this home's location in the Hernando Beach neighborhood is that it is situated closer to the mainland, providing more shelter than homes located directly on the Gulf, while still offering the same direct Gulf access. It is the best of both worlds. Originally built in 1989, it underwent a major addition in 2005, giving the home a county-assessed effective age of 2005. Following the 2024 storms, the sellers replaced lower-level drywall with corrugated metal for durability and peace of mind. The upper level includes 1,770 square feet of insurable living space. No HOA or CDD, and vacation rentals are allowed. Enjoy kayaking on the spring-fed Weeki Wachee River, swimming and paddleboarding at Rogers Park, and wildlife watching at Linda Pedersen Park and Jenkins Creek Preserve. Hernando Beach public boat ramp is just minutes away, providing easy access to the Gulf. Incredible inshore and offshore fishing, and some of Florida’s best scalloping grounds. bit.ly/4060Casa Schedule a Private Showing
