Welcome to your slice of the Florida waterfront lifestyle. This 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home sits directly on the Anclote River with deeded Gulf of Mexico access, a rare opportunity to own true boating water at an approachable price point, on a nice block of well-kept homes. Step into your own private oasis with a screened, in-ground pool overlooking the river, a private dock with new wood decking ready for your boat, a seawall in good condition, and a spacious backyard made for sunset views and morning coffee on the water, while new windows across the back of the home flood the living space with natural light and frame those river views beautifully.

Tucked in the Flotilla Dr riverfront enclave of Holiday, the home is minutes from Anclote River Park, with its boat ramp, kayak launch, and Gulf-access swimming, and just a short drive from the world-famous Tarpon Springs Sponge Docks, known for its historic Greek waterfront district, dolphin cruises, and waterfront dining, with boaters able to head straight out the Anclote River to Anclote Key Preserve State Park or nearby Fred Howard Park and Sunset Beach. Families will also appreciate the school zoning for Sunray Elementary, Paul R. Smith Middle School, and Anclote High School.
