This stunning Gulf-access riverfront home in the Orange River Estates offers an unparalleled opportunity to live on a 1.5-acre lot in a quiet neighborhood with no HOA fees. With breathtaking panoramic views of the Orange River, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath open-concept home is filled with natural light, thanks to cathedral ceilings, a cozy fireplace, and expansive windows throughout. Currently in a very successful short-term rental program with Airbnb, this property is ready to generate income from day one or become your private sanctuary. Also permitted to host as a Wedding Venue! A new metal roof was installed in 2021, and the interior has been recently remodeled and freshly painted. The property is primed for future expansion with an enlarged and relocated septic system that can support a pool and up to four additional bathrooms. Adjacent to the main house is a charming guest house complete with its own bathroom, perfect for accommodating extra guests or serving as a home office. Outdoor living is enhanced with a large deck and dock area, ideal for entertaining while enjoying the stunning Southwest Florida sunsets. Additional buildings include a 2,300-square-foot pole barn for storage or utility use and a 500-square-foot steel Quonset hut that can function as a workshop, chicken coop, or any versatile workspace. The home is equipped with a whole-house reverse osmosis water system and energy-efficient blown-in insulation. Located just a turn away from Manatee Park in beautiful Buckingham, this riverfront oasis provides an unreal setting with serene nature views. Whether you’re seeking a lucrative investment property or a peaceful waterfront retreat, this exceptional home delivers on every level.
