Property Description
Embrace the Gulf Coast lifestyle with this exceptional building lot offering stunning views of the Gulf of Mexico! With 75 feet of frontage on a spring-fed freshwater canal, this property provides indirect access to the Gulf. Boating enthusiasts will appreciate the unique journey, involving a lift to a saltwater canal and passing under a fixed bridge before reaching the Gulf waters. Situated in the desirable South Hernando Beach, this property is part of a homeowners association (HOA) community equipped with a convenient community boat ramp. The HOA ensures a well-maintained and cohesive neighborhood, promoting a sense of community among residents. Please note that due to HOA restrictions, short-term rentals are not permitted in this community, fostering a peaceful and long-term residential atmosphere. Hernando Beach, a serene and secluded coastal hamlet, is renowned for its focus on recreational fishing and boating. The community is bordered by the Gulf of Mexico and the Weeki Wachee Nature Preserve, accessible via a coastal 2-lane highway with limited access points from the North and South. Hernando Beach offers a variety of housing options, including single-family homes along saltwater direct Gulf Access canals or freshwater indirect Gulf access canals. Despite the absence of an actual beach, the area exudes a cool coastal vibe with waterfront tiki bars, marinas, fine dining restaurants, seafood markets, and charming shops. While Hernando Beach provides a tranquil retreat, it's surprisingly close to essential amenities. Within a 10-minute drive, residents can access US 19 and find Publix, shopping centers, chain restaurants, Walmart, Sam's Club, and four major hospitals. Furthermore, the location is just an hour from Tampa International Airport and 90 minutes from the magical world of Disney. Seize the opportunity to create your Gulf Coast Fishing Home on this perfect building lot. Contact us now to embark on the journey of making this picturesque property your own!
