Description

Sweeping Gulf views, direct boating access and a private concrete boat ramp define this renovated waterfront home at 3194 Indian Gulf Lane in Aripeka, within the greater Hernando Beach market area. This 2-bedroom, 2-bath coastal residence offers approximately 1,906 square feet of living area and approximately 60 feet of poured-concrete seawall. The residence has undergone substantial renovation and updating, creating a bright, inviting interior with a flowing layout designed to take full advantage of the waterfront setting. The updated kitchen features granite countertops, stainless-steel appliances, a large center island with seating, generous cabinetry, and an open connection to the dining and living areas. Expansive windows and glass doors bring abundant natural light and coastal views into the principal living spaces. The main level also includes the second bedroom, full bath, interior laundry, and an impressive Florida room overlooking the water. Updated flooring, ceiling fans, contemporary finishes, built-in cabinetry and shelving complete the interior. A dramatic spiral staircase leads to the private upper-level primary suite with walk-in closet and adjoining bath. The exterior renovation represents a significant investment. The home was extensively refinished with a Dryvit stucco exterior system, a substantial and costly improvement that gives the residence a refined architectural appearance and contributes materially to its updated finish quality. Additional improvements include a newer metal roof, newer central air-conditioning system, and extensive deck improvements. The expansive rear deck provides an outstanding setting for dining, entertaining, relaxing, and enjoying spectacular sunsets and ever-changing coastal scenery. From the seawall and private boat ramp, enjoy direct access to the surrounding waterways for boating, kayaking, fishing, and exploration of the Gulf. Open water, tidal wetlands, natural shoreline, and undeveloped coastal views create a setting that is increasingly difficult to find. The location also places an exceptional collection of Nature Coast recreation within convenient reach. Nearby destinations include Bayport Park with Gulf access, fishing pier and boat ramps; Linda Pedersen Park and Jenkins Creek Park along Shoal Line Boulevard; Rogers Park on the Weeki Wachee River; and Alfred McKethan/Pine Island Park with its Gulf beach and swimming area. To the south, SunWest Park in Hudson offers a public swimming beach and additional water recreation. Weeki Wachee Springs is also nearby. Popular Hernando Beach dining options include Brian's Place, The Lazy Lizard and Silver Dolphin Restaurant & Country Store. U.S. Highway 19 provides convenient access to shopping and everyday services, including the familiar Cracker Barrel on Commercial Way. For buyers searching the Hernando Beach and 34607 waterfront market, 3194 Indian Gulf Lane offers a rare combination of extensive renovation, direct boating access, exceptional Gulf views and a remarkably natural coastal setting.
