Perched above the Iroquois River, this private setting offers incredible views and a front-row seat to nature. Keep your eyes open for bald eagles and other wildlife, then take your own private stairs down to the river for fishing whenever the mood strikes. The top seawall has been in place since the sellers took ownership. In 2024, The second seawall was installed to provide extra structural security and support to the first seawall and create another garden area. This is a boatable section of the river, making it ideal for kayaks, canoes, and enjoying the water from your own backyard. The home was fully renovated in 2018, with roof and siding updated in 2020, water heater in 2020, and a second seawall added in 2024. 2026 new well pump. Updated lighting, fans, and a PVC privacy fence add even more to the package. A peaceful riverfront setting. A beautifully updated ranch. A backyard made for enjoying the outdoors. And a garage made for hanging out. If you've been waiting for a home where the setting is just as memorable as the house itself, this may be the one worth seeing.
