Big Home Crystal River on Main River-Amazing Views-Heated Pool-fire pit-kayaks
Manatee Manor is a beautiful newly renovated 4 bed, 4.5 bath ranch with two primary suites. Has a beautiful outdoor area with screened in HEATED pool and large backyard. This house sits right on the main river (Crystal River) and has two boat docks, a great view down river toward Three Sisters and Hunter Springs. We have just done a large outdoor paving path with large wood fire pit. A great place during the day or at night to sit and see the sights.
When you first walk into this house you will notice the large open area, beautiful travertine flooring with plenty of room for all.
To the right you will find a new big spacious kitchen with new granite countertops, new appliances, a large prep space and seating. This area has a large dining room table with seating for 10 people and a wet/coffee bar area. The kitchen if fully stocked and you will find everything you need when prepping and cooking meals.
There is plenty of room in the main living room for all to relax on the sectionals and reclining couches. There is a large flat screen tv with big windows with views of the pool and the river.
You can exit the living room to the screened in heated pool area. In the winter months the heater can be run for a small daily charge. This area is large with plenty of seating, lounge chairs and even a large table to eat outside and enjoy the views and the weather. This area will become one of the main hang out spots during your stay. You are close to the covered gilling area, with a view of the boat docks and the outdoor firepit. You can watch the kids play in the pool or keep an eye on them while they fish off the two boat docks from the pool area.
Walking out of screened in pool area you will find the covered gilling area with lights, this is very nice when the weather isn't cooperating with you.
We have a very nice and large paver area with plenty of seating and a wood fire pit where you can sit and enjoy the view, watch the boats go by or just relax. Plenty of seating and tables so you enjoy each other's company and a meal. Again, you can watch the kids fish off the dock or swim in the pool right behind you while enjoying the outdoor patio area.
Going back inside.......this house has some amazing and well thought out bedrooms. The first primary bedroom is very large and offers two queen size beds, a flat screen tv, a sitting area and its own private kitchenette. The private bath has a soaking tub, walk-in shower, walk-in closet and double vanities. This bedroom has an attached kitchenette with a stove, a full size fridge, microwave and coffee (keurig) maker.

Manatee manor sits on Watersedge Drive, one of the best streets in Crystal River. It is quite and you will see people walking dogs or riding bikes. It has many beautiful homes and is peaceful and safe. It is worth the time to walk or take a leisurely stroll as there is much to see. There are active osprey nesting in the area and many other native birds to see.
