I don't just sit by the river-I look out over it. Perched above the Mississippi with approximately 100 feet of beachfront, I give you the riverfront lifestyle you've been dreaming about, with beautiful elevated views and being located outside the mapped flood zone. Step inside and you'll understand why I feel more like a getaway than simply a house. Warm wood ceilings bring that cozy cabin feeling, while large sliders frame the river and invite you outside to enjoy the view. My spacious kitchen, complete with updated countertops, appliances, lighting and a large peninsula, gives everyone a place to gather. And I've grown! A newer 18x15 addition with a huge closet adds even more living space, while additional updates have created another bedroom and walk-in closet. Newer carpet, updated lighting and electrical, custom blinds, fresh paint and dual mini-splits are just the beginning. Both bathrooms have also received extensive updates, including showers, flooring, vanities and toilets, with a garden jet tub offering the perfect place to unwind. Outside is where I really show off. Wander through established gardens and raised beds, pick fruit from the cherry and apple trees or Concord grapes, relax beneath the pergola and hot tub, gather around the fire pit, or simply sit back and watch the Mississippi roll by. You'll also find a greenhouse, chicken house and protected run, multiple outbuildings, and even a furnished 8x12 guest cabin. Behind the scenes, I've received some serious upgrades too-including newer siding and insulation, upgraded 200-amp electrical service, a water softener and an impressive 26kW whole-house generator. I'm part river retreat, part homestead and part everyday escape. I've been thoughtfully improved, lovingly landscaped and designed to make the most of the land and that unforgettable view. If you've been waiting for a property that feels like you're getting away from it all without actually leaving home, I think you just found me.
