CEDAR RIVER DISTINCTIVE CRAFTSMAN HOME is the perfect retreat tucked away at the end of a private drive, snuggled into 7 wooded acres on 446’ of Cedar River Frontage! Experience exceptional privacy within the walls of this custom-built Craftsman home. Designed by an antique dealer, the home showcases unique character throughout—antique doors, rare wood finishes, intricate carvings, post and beam construction, and leaded glass accents. A fieldstone fireplace anchors both the living room and primary bedroom, creating a warm, inviting atmosphere. Recent upgrades include a converted front porch now serving as a utility/mudroom with an elevated pet bath, new kitchen floor tile, and a 2021 roof replacement. Central air, new appliances, an exterior dog pen, and a new riverside dock enhance comfort and functionality. Approximately 70 trees were cleared to open up river access and expand the gravel parking area. The upstairs loft serves as a second bedroom with stunning views of the river and lower main living space. The primary suite features a screened-in sleeping porch and an interior window overlooking the atrium. Several exquisitely crafted stained glass light fixtures, sconces, ceiling fans and chandeliers will all convey with the home. A large, classic red barn is electrified and offers flexible space for storage or entertaining, while the dedicated woodshop and two loft areas are ideal for hobbyists and craftsmen. The barn houses a large bar/tv area, pool table, and has plenty of room to accommodate larger gatherings and events. Whether you enjoy kayaking, canoeing, fishing, wildlife watching, or simply listening to the majestic Cedar River flow, the setting is unforgettable in every season! Come explore this one-of-a-kind property.
