About this home

Welcome to Blue Cove, where Quiet Mornings Meet Crystal-Clear Water. Tucked away in Dunnellon, Florida, Blue Cove is a peaceful riverside community where the pace slows, and the everyday melts away. Here, life is measured in sunrise paddles, lazy afternoons on the water, and evenings under a canopy of stars. Best of all, Blue Cove offers residents access to the legendary Rainbow River, one of Florida's most treasured natural springs. And now, your Private Retreat Awaits! This fully remodeled 3/2/2 home, updated in 2022, blends modern luxury with cozy, lived-in charm. Step inside to find durable luxury vinyl plank flooring flowing through most of the home, soft carpet in the bedrooms for restful nights, and elegant tile in both bathrooms. The heart of the home is a beautifully updated kitchen featuring brand-new appliances, gleaming granite countertops, and an oversized bar, ideal for morning coffee for two, wine and cheese at sunset, or gathering friends around for the evening. The cozy living and dining areas invite you to unwind, while plantation shutters throughout let you set the mood, whether you want golden light spilling in or a quiet, candlelit hush. The split floor plan offers generous, spacious rooms and wonderful privacy, making the primary suite a true sanctuary. This home is also Indoor-Outdoor Living at Its Best. Step out to the large lanai and picture your days unfolding: a morning cup of coffee, a good book, an evening glass of wine as the Florida breeze drifts through. Beyond it, a pavered patio is ready for string lights, a fire pit, and long conversations under the stars. The backyard is adorned by lush trees, perfect for creating shade and bringing down the temperatures during Florida’s summer days, and the fully enclosed with chain-link fencing, gives your furry loved ones plenty of room to play. And best of all, the River Lifestyle inspires life on the go… at a different pace.. relaxed and at your own speed. As a special bonus, sitting inside your extended oversized 2-car garage, the seller is leaving behind two kayaks, kayak racks, and a starter kit, so you can head to the river from day one. Simply load up and go. Enjoy the confidence of major updates already done for you: Hot water heater: replaced in 2022; Roof: replaced in 2023; HVAC: replaced in 2025. No HOA, but Blue Cove does have a $100 annual fee for access to the private Rainbow River boat ramp and fishing pier, an incredible value for the lifestyle it unlocks. If you are not familiar with the Rainbow River, it’s a spring-fed river, with refreshing 72 deg temperatures year-round. You can watch the sunlight dance across the sandy bottom and the swaying emerald grasses below. It is a paddler’s paradise and a natural gift like no other.
