Property Description
Experience exceptional RIVERFRONT living in this beautifully crafted custom home, ideally situated on the popular Cartecay River. Offered fully furnished, the property also includes a detached two-car garage. The inviting great room features a dramatic wall of windows, a gas-log fireplace, and doors opening to an open porch overlooking the river. The well-appointed kitchen showcases an oversized island, exotic granite countertops, a built-in desk, and an adjoining dining area with charming window seats. Just beyond, a screened porch with a hot tub creates year-round relaxation. Custom trimwork throughout adds warmth, character, and craftsmanship. A spacious laundry room that also serves as a mudroom, along with a convenient half bath, completes the main living area. The enormous main-level primary suite is a private retreat, featuring its own sitting area, fantastic river views, a generously sized bath, and a walk-in closet. Upstairs, two private en-suite bedrooms each feature custom window seating, while an enclosed loft provides an ideal home office or flexible bonus space. The terrace level offers a finished family room and full bath, plus substantial unfinished space that could easily accommodate two additional bedrooms and another bath. Additional highlights include fiber internet, gated security, and a whole-home water filtration system. The fantastic river lot provides easy stepped access to the water, allowing you to fully enjoy the property's exceptional setting. The Lucky 8 community further enhances the riverfront lifestyle with a scenic walking path along the riverbank, five miles of hiking trails, and catch-and-release fishing for trophy-sized trout. Located just 15 minutes from town, the home is also convenient to area vineyards, orchards, and additional hiking trails—offering the ideal retreat without sacrificing accessibility. An adjacent 1.28-acre lot is available for an additional cost. No short-term rentals in this community.
