About This Home

If you’ve been dreaming of peaceful waterfront living in a sleepy, nature-filled Rivertown, look no further. Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, 79 Carefree features a charming two-bedroom, one-bath main home, plus a private one-bedroom, half-bath bungalow—perfect for hosting guests or generating rental income. Unwind on the screened back deck overlooking the canal, complete with a bar area—perfect for laid-back evenings and soaking in the gentle river breezes. With ample parking and just a short stroll to local parks, conveniences, and the beloved Renegades on the River, this property blends comfort, charm, and versatility in a setting that’s hard to beat. Located in the heart of Florida’s famed bass fishing capital, this area draws anglers from around the country eager to explore the St. Johns River and surrounding lakes. Launch your boat right from your backyard canal and be on world-class fishing waters in minutes—whether you're chasing trophy bass or just enjoying the scenic beauty of the river system. This is a prime opportunity for savvy investors and lifestyle buyers alike. The upcoming Bass Pro Resort is set to put this quiet town on the map, bringing new energy and attention to the region. Just 50 minutes from white sandy beaches and about an hour to Gainesville, home of the University of Florida, 79 Carefree offers the perfect mix of seclusion, recreation, and future potential. Previously a successful Airbnb, this unique property is ideal as a vacation home, income-producing rental, or your own full-time waterfront retreat—all at a fraction of the price you'd expect for this kind of lifestyle.
