CRYSTAL RIVER, FL 34429 8569 W ADMIRAL BYRD LANE

Welcome to this beautifully reimagined 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home located in the heart of Crystal River. Set on a generously sized lot with mature trees, this home offers the perfect blend of modern upgrades and comfortable living. A brand-new roof was installed in 2023, and the septic system was completely replaced, including the tank and drain field. The Florida room was rebuilt from the ground up with a concrete foundation, new framing, and ceiling. The main structure underwent significant improvements including the removal of old flooring and subfloor, repairs to the pier and beam foundation, installation of new wood framing, and new concrete and hydraulic risers. A brand-new subfloor and luxury vinyl plank flooring now extend throughout the home. All exterior walls have new plywood sheathing and freshly painted wood siding. The entire plumbing system was replaced with all new water and drain lines. The electrical system was completely rewired with new switches and outlets installed. A new meter base and breaker panel were installed, and exterior lights were added at every entrance for added safety and charm. Both bathrooms boats stylish finishes and fixtures. Two brand-new air conditioning units were added for efficient, zoned climate control. The property also features a powered shed with updated electrical service for the well, and a brand-new well pump. Significant landscaping was completed, including the removal and trimming of multiple trees, giving the outdoor space a fresh and inviting feel. This home is truly move-in ready and feels like new, both inside and out. With access to the Gulf of America, freshwater springs, and the Crystal River itself, it’s a haven for boating, fishing, scalloping, and diving. Crystal River is known as the “Home of the Manatee.” The crystal-clear springs attract hundreds of manatees each winter, and residents can kayak, paddleboard, or even swim alongside these gentle giants in protected waters. The area is surrounded by preserves, forests, and wildlife refuges—perfect for those who love hiking, birdwatching, and nature photography. While Crystal River offers a quieter pace, it’s still within driving distance to Tampa, Ocala, and Gainesville, making weekend getaways, healthcare access, and shopping easy.
