Rare opportunity for private WATERFRONT living on the river! With 90 ft of riverfront set along a quiet stretch with limited docks and boat traffic, this property offers direct water access with a floating dock included—enjoy boating, kayaking, fishing or simply relaxing by the water from your own backyard. The 3-bedroom home offers spacious rooms, solid bones and plenty of potential to make it your own, along with upgrades including granite kitchen counters, efficient hydronic radiant floor heating in portions of the home and a tankless water heater. The first floor features four generously sized rooms with full bath, including a living room with wood-burning stove. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms and a second full bath; the front-to-back primary bedroom includes a walk-in closet. Outside, enjoy an inground pool with gazebo, garden area and blueberry and raspberry bushes, Concord and Chardonnay grapevines, and an Asian pear tree. A large covered deck with hot tub and natural gas grill expands the outdoor living space. An impressive detached garage offers workshop space, walk-up storage and a pool room. The semi-finished lower level in the home adds a wet bar and exercise area. A unique property with tremendous potential where waterfront access, recreation and privacy take center stage!
