Property Description
SUWANNEE RIVER RETREAT--YOUR PRIVATE RIVERSIDE GETAWAY! Welcome to your dream retreat on the high bluffs of the Suwannee River in the serene Hatchbend area! This delightful 4-bedroom, 3-bath home is nestled on a generous 1-acre lot, offering peace, privacy, and panoramic river views. Inside, the home showcases charming rustic décor and a flexible layout. The main level features two cozy bedrooms and a shared bath, along with a fireplace—perfect for gathering on cool evenings. A private suite with its own entrance includes a spacious bedroom, a walk-in closet, and a large picture window overlooking the river, so you can wake up every morning to breathtaking views. On the lower level, you’ll find an additional bedroom and full bath, offering privacy and comfort for guests or extended family. There's also a large enclosed bonus room that can easily be transformed into extra living space, a game room, or the ultimate party room. Outdoor living shines with this property. Enjoy lazy afternoons on the porch swing, cook up a feast in the fully equipped outdoor kitchen and living area, then wind down around the firepit under the stars. A 42-foot aluminum ramp leads to a large floating dock with two jet ski docks, making river access easy and fun. Storage is abundant, with a 30’ x 40’ enclosed garage featuring three roll-up doors—ideal for housing all your toys and tools. There’s also additional covered parking for an RV or boat. The home is wired for a generator and includes an RV hookup. Located just a few miles from the quaint town of Branford, with a population under 800, this peaceful retreat offers small-town charm with big outdoor adventure. Fun starts here! You can begin your day on the water exploring nearby Little River Springs, Ruth Springs and Troy Springs just to the north. Head a little further south to where the Suwanee River meets the Sante Fe River and you will find Ellie Ray’s Campground, a local favorite with live entertaintment, a pool and a party that never ends! Continue up to the mouth of the Ichetucknee, park your boat and jump in the crystal clear water for a swim or head on up to Ginny Springs. Or head back down the Suwannee towards the Gulf Coast and stop off at Hart Springs to enjoy the boardwalk through the Cypress hammock or some cave diving. And be sure to stop by Suwannee Belle Restaurant for some of the best local cuisine. Whether you're looking for a full-time home, a vacation getaway, or a riverfront investment, this Suwannee River gem is a rare find. Tremendous potential for Air BNB! This home is TURN KEY and being sold FULLY FURNISHED--ready for your summer adventures! Schedule your private showing today!
