The sixties were an exciting time in Crystal River! A new waterfront community was being created in the heart of town and adjacent to the beautiful clear water of Three Sisters Springs. They called it Pretty Springs, and it instantly became “the place to live!” Now, 60 years later, Pretty Springs represents another once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Specifically, 1201 and 1209 SE Paradise Ave represent the future and the future is now! The opportunity to reset the clock to 2025 standards of building on the waterfront! The sentimental memories of growing up on Paradise Avenue, just down the canal from the blue water run leading into the springs, will be forever recorded in family scrapbooks but the vision for the future will be seen through a new set of lenses. Not all lot sizes were created equal back then, either! Each lot is 50% larger at 12,500 sq ft than a typical 7,000 sq ft lot found on the numbered avenues. Combine the two and have a grand total of .6 acres – virtually unheard of for a residential canal location. No need to call the handyman on this one, but everyone wants a slice of paradise so, don’t delay, start building your lifetime legacy today!
