About this home
Seize an extraordinary opportunity to own 54 feet of prime riverfront on the world-famous Weeki Wachee River, one of Florida’s most beautiful and iconic spring-fed waterways. Located along the river’s legendary 7.5-mile crystal-clear stretch, this property offers a rare blend of natural beauty, recreational freedom, and rich Old Florida history.
Fed by the renowned Weeki Wachee Springs, the river maintains a constant 74-degree temperature year-round, creating an ideal setting for kayaking, paddleboarding, swimming, boating, and wildlife viewing. The springs—famous since the 1940s for their historic live mermaid shows—contribute over 112 million gallons of fresh water daily, ensuring pristine clarity and steady flow. As the river winds through state parklands, it eventually meets the Mud River and flows directly into the Gulf of Mexico at Bayport, offering seamless access to both freshwater and saltwater adventures with no fixed bridges.
This versatile property is zoned R-3, offers no HOA restrictions, and allows for short-term rentals, making it ideal for a future custom riverfront home, investment property, or a unique RV retreat. Enjoy watching manatees and dolphins glide by your backyard while taking advantage of excellent fishing opportunities for both freshwater and Gulf species.
An existing small home on the property was impacted by recent flooding and may be renovated or removed, providing flexibility for a future owner to design and build to their vision. An adjacent parcel is also available, presenting a rare opportunity to expand your riverfront to an impressive 104 feet.
Located in Weeki Wachee Gardens, a quiet, spring-fed riverfront community in Hernando County, this hidden gem is just 60 minutes north of Tampa International Airport via the Suncoast Parkway. Tucked away from US-19 and SR-50, the neighborhood captures the essence of Old Florida living—peaceful, secluded, and timeless—while still offering convenient access to modern amenities.
Whether you’re seeking a private riverfront retreat, a recreational getaway, or a future dream home site, this Weeki Wachee River property delivers a truly one-of-a-kind Florida lifestyle.
