Description
Set along the river in coveted Ravenswood Manor, this truly one-of-a-kind home offers a rare blend of serene nature and city living. Situated on an expansive lot in the sought after Waters Elementary School District, this beautiful home sits on the river at the end of a quiet neighborhood street. Welcome to an incredible oversized lot with an impressive 143 feet of river frontage and a private dock, where the setting feels as though you've been transported out of the city. Inside, the home features a spacious, open floor plan with a contemporary feel, complemented by hardwood floors and views of the peaceful landscape from almost every room. Large, picturesque windows frame the river view and fill the home with natural light, creating a seamless connection to the outdoors. The generously sized kitchen offers light oak cabinetry, a peninsula with an eat-in bar top, and a double oven. Enjoy a deck off the kitchen area, which makes it convenient for entertaining or enjoying family cookouts. The living and dining room on the main level flow into the kitchen area, but create separate seating areas with a gas fireplace that will keep you cozy during colder months. Upstairs, you will find three bedrooms on one level, including the large primary suite with walk-in closets and a gas fireplace. Both bathrooms on this level feature ultra-comfort radiant heated floors, and the laundry room is also conveniently located here. An inviting staircase will take you to the top level of the home, which features a versatile space that can be used as a 4th bedroom, office, rec room, or combination. Up here, you overlook beautiful views of the river. Also enjoy a full bath and a large deck off this space. The lower level provides a versatile, open basement with radiant flooring, recessed lighting, a full bath, and plenty of windows and storage, making it ideal for a family room, home office, gym, or guest space. This floor plan was meticulously thought out with the open space, having a bathroom on every level, and views from each room. The home is set up for Ring camera and lights on the exterior. Step outside and enjoy life along the river-start your mornings with coffee by the water, launch a kayak or paddleboard from your private dock, entertain friends outdoors, or simply unwind and take in the stunning scenery. Every season transforms the landscape-from lush summer greenery to vibrant fall colors and serene winter views-creating a magical, ever-changing backdrop. With wide-open views and a peaceful setting, the home offers a rare riverfront sanctuary in the heart of the city. While the neighborhood is highly accessible, with walking distance to Ravenswood Manor Park, Horner Park, restaurants, and shops, this impeccably cared-for home remains a tranquil retreat surrounded by nature, only moments from everything the city has to offer.
