Beautiful inside and out, this property blends craftsmanship, comfort, and natural beauty into one remarkable offering. A detached 23' x 23' garage has power, a roll-up door, built-in shelving, and an attached single carport. The level yard is thoughtfully landscaped, highlighted by crepe myrtle trees in the front and an RV pad with 50-amp hookup along the side. In the backyard, two above-ground planter boxes are ready for your green thumb, while a stone pathway leads to a custom fire pit. The true focal point is your private deck overlooking the wide, flowing river, with steps providing direct access to the water. From the driveway lined with accent lights, a stone walkway guides you to the full-length front porch of the home and inside to an impressive Great Room featuring a vaulted tongue-and-groove ceiling, a floor-to-ceiling stacked stone fireplace, hardwood floors, and expansive windows that flood the space with light. The breakfast area has a door that opens to a full-length back porch overlooking the yard and river. The open kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, lots of granite counter space, stainless steel appliances, and a pantry. Privately situated behind the kitchen are the guest bedroom with a walk-in closet, a full guest bathroom, and a laundry room with a utility sink. Upstairs in the loft, the Master Suite provides a spacious retreat with a vaulted tongue-and-groove ceiling, large walk-in closet, and glass doors opening to a private balcony with tranquil river views.
