This historic waterfront home known as the Baxter Morrison House was built shortly after the iconic Victorian style courthouse was erected in the 1890's & later became the historic 1912 Courthouse. Baxter Morrison was the founder of the Waterwork & Ice Plant, owner of 1st Buick Dealership in the County & developer of the Inverness Moss Company after the Depression.

You will be close enough to the water to enjoy and far enough away to be safe (HIGH AND DRY).Some of the best fishing in the world can be found in our rivers, lakes and bays. you can catch a bass, crappie, trout, red fish, snook, grouper, mackerel, black sea bass and scallops.... all on the same trip. Great locally owned cuisine and shops that are sprinkled throughout the area. Citrus County will be a joy to visit and certainly worth a second look! Also, the centralized location makes for a short trip to Ocala (HORSE CAPITAL OF THE WORLD), Gainesville, Tampa, St Pete, Orlando and the rest of the beauty that Central Florida has to offer.
