About this property

Peaceful Waterfront Home, Daily Sunset, Dock, 3 Min to Boat ramp & Gulf Access

Our house has large picture windows overlooking the pristine waters and marshes all the way to the gulf. There are terraces to sit out and enjoy the sun and the sunset which happens right out front. There’s a private dock that takes you to the waters edge, where you can canoe or fish from and to our own island with a picnic table. There are a couple of public boat ramps, the closest being 1/2 mile away, and there is plenty of space to park a boat trailer on our property. The water depth at our dock varies w the season, but there's an extension that provides plenty of depth and a place to tie off (dock length is 16'). During the summer we have at least 1' of water at low tide and the bottom is mud. You can easily get to our home from the boat ramp and to the gulf.

The house has 3 nice sized rooms with 4-poster beds and ceiling fans and a 4th bedroom with a futon double-bed (and a desk if you need to work). The Library, is a common room between the rooms where you can sit and read or enjoy the view and some solitude. While in the living room and dining room you can enjoy TV or talking with your friends while preparing a meal in the open kitchen. There is a Florida room that runs parallel to the living / dining room. With 3,650 square feet of space, this house is spacious enough for large groups, family reunions and entertaining with friends.

If you enjoy cooking, the kitchen is well prepared for you.

There is lots of land and privacy for you to stroll around the property.

If you are looking to unwind and enjoy nature, this place will afford you the peace and quiet.

Homosassa has many water activities on offer, such as, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, air boating, scalloping, swimming with the manatees and going for a swim in the gulf’s warm waters. There are also many homestyle restaurants with an emphasis on fresh seafood. There are also a number of attractions to keep you, your family and friends busy.

We look forward to welcoming you.

This was our fourth time staying and we still love how the stress melts away when we are here. We enjoyed the kayaks and brought our own paddleboard this time. We love the layout of the home. Tons of space! The beds are comfy, the views are the best and the wildlife is magical.

A private little getaway

Was pleasantly surprised how unique this property was. The view of the water was spectacular. The property was fun to explore. We had a fire at the fire pit. We turned the fire on inside. It is a great place to have a family gathering or friends. It is big.

Very private location that is also less than 15 minutes to a grocery store and 5 minutes to a few restaurants. The property has seen some wear over time but is filled with unique furnishings and comfortable beds. We loved being there. I hope we can go back!

About the host

Hosted by Charlie

Host profile image
I was born in Brasil and have lived around the world, including Portugal, where I am currently. I've been in the restaurant business for a long time (luckily I really enjoy it). And Homosassa was where our traveling family used to meet for our annual gatherings.

Why they chose this property

This house and property is secluded and in the midst of nature, which seems to bring out the best in our family. We can adventure out into the marshes and gulf for fishing, paddling around or swimming or go for a stroll around the property / neighborhood. There is plenty of space to be together and still have time apart.

What makes this property unique

Being at this house allows me to enjoy the surrounding nature. Sitting up on the 2nd floor watching the sunset or sun bathing during the day. Fishing off the dock with my kids and family. Shopping for fresh seafood to bring home or eat in the local restaurants. It all leads to a slower pace of life and enjoyment of the moment. There are 2 public boat ramps, the closest being 1/2 mile away, and plenty of space to park your boat trailer.
