This is a motivated seller offering their single-family residence at 9461 CR 657 in Bushnell, FL, to you. A delightful riverfront retreat facing a 50-acre bird sanctuary across the river; perfect for those seeking quietude and Mother Nature as she is meant to be seen. Built in 1985 and fully renovated by the present owners, the home includes 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and a spacious living area of 1,935 sq ft. featuring an open floor plan with a living room/dining room combo and a family room, all floored with ceramic tile plus wood-burning fireplace. Fully-equipped kitchen has granite counters and a kitchen island. The large primary bedroom boasts a full view of the river and includes built-in closets, an ensuite full bathroom, plus large multi-purpose connecting room suitable for a she-shed or nursery. The property sits on a 0.28-acre lot, featuring chain link fencing to safeguard kids and pets.

Unique (for Florida) 500+ sq. ft. full basement (exterior access) makes ideal man-cave with workbench, sink and full-sized second freezer/fridge. Two parking spaces (one, a covered carport). Nestled in the family-friendly River Retreats community and equidistant from Tampa, Orlando, and Ocala, besides direct water-access, it's 15 minutes to grocery and drug stores, 30 minutes to the Villages, 17 minutes to golf and tennis at the Brooksville Country Club, and less than a half hour from three major hospitals. Local schools include Bushnell Elementary, South Sumter Middle, and South Sumter High. Important: though directly on the river, the house has never been flooded.
