Navigation note: Navigation routes show the shortest mapped path to open water. A vessel taller than the binding bridge clearance may still reach open water via a longer alternate route that we don't currently map — verify navigability with a local captain or surveyor before relying on it.

Description

Welcome to a truly one-of-a-kind waterfront retreat in the heart of Lake Geneva Estates in beautiful Melrose, Florida—where everyday living feels like a private getaway. This exceptional 3-bedroom, 2-bath canal-front home offers something rarely found: sweeping water views paired with your very own 8.24-acre island included in the sale. From the moment you arrive, the paved driveway leads you to an inviting entrance that sets the tone for what’s inside. Step through the door into a spacious open-concept living area where high ceilings and a panoramic layout seamlessly connect the living room, kitchen, and dining space. The kitchen is designed for both function and gathering, featuring abundant counter space and sleek stainless steel appliances. Anchoring the living room is a warm brick wood-burning fireplace, creating a cozy focal point that flows naturally into the Florida room—where walls of windows showcase stunning canal and island views. The primary suite is a peaceful retreat with a generous walk-in closet and a private en-suite bath. An interior utility room adds everyday convenience and functionality. Outdoor living is where this property truly shines. An oversized garage provides ample storage, while the screened lanai invites you to relax and take in serene views of the island just beyond your backyard. A patio overlooks lush green grass leading directly to your private island entrance—your own natural sanctuary waiting to be explored. The island itself is an oasis, complete with two RV hookups and a charming mini clubhouse with covered gathering space—perfect for entertaining, camping-style weekends, or hosting unforgettable get-togethers. Nature surrounds you here, with frequent sightings of whistling wood ducks, sandhill cranes, deer, and more, creating a peaceful and vibrant wildlife backdrop. Tucked away in a quiet, desirable neighborhood, this property offers the rare combination of privacy, acreage, waterfront living, and convenience—just minutes from local restaurants, shopping, and everyday essentials. And best of all—NO HOA. Offered at $497,500, this is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle, a retreat, and an extraordinary opportunity to own a slice of Florida paradise.
