(Read more) From there, the home flows into the shaded sunroom, where paver flooring creates a seamless connection to the outdoor living areas and invites you to slow down and enjoy the surrounding river views. Outside, lush landscaping and St. Augustine sod enhances both the front and back yards, while pavers continue from the carport to the rear of the home, wrapping around the saltwater pool and leading to the firepit area. The fenced backyard offers everything needed to enjoy Florida living, including an in-ground pool with a newer liner and pump, gas pool heater, outdoor shower, tied-in gas grill, and multiple spaces for relaxing or gathering with friends and family. A powered storage shed with a lean-to and its own metal roof, also installed in March 2026, adds even more useful space. The beauty of this home is matched by the work completed behind the scenes. Renovations and improvements include remodeled bathrooms, updated plumbing, ductwork, and electrical panel in 2023; a metal roof installed in March 2026; and a newer septic system and drainfield installed in 2022. A whole-home Generac generator installed in 2020, an on-demand gas water heater, stackable gas washer and dryer, water softener, irrigation system, and UV-C lamps in the HVAC system add comfort, efficiency, and peace of mind. With its captivating river views, two private en-suites, flexible living areas, extensive renovations, and backyard designed for year-round enjoyment, 209 River Drive is more than a beautifully updated home; it is a place created for making memories. Offered under $500,000, this is your opportunity to enjoy the river views without the riverfront price!
