First Time on the Market! This charming mountain cottage offers an exceptional setting with over 500 feet of beautiful river frontage and stunning views of both the river and surrounding mountains. Situated on two adjoining lots totaling more than 3 acres, the home rests on a picturesque knoll, providing privacy with a wooded buffer on one side and open land bordering the rear and opposite side. Set well back from the road, the property enjoys a peaceful atmosphere with minimal traffic noise. Relax on the covered front porch or spacious back deck, both perfectly positioned to take in the tranquil river views. The original portion of the home features an open kitchen and dining area anchored by a striking stacked-stone fireplace. Recent updates include new tile flooring and countertops in the kitchen, along with updated tile flooring and a newer shower in the shared full bath serving two bedrooms. A spacious den addition, completed approximately 15+ years ago, creates an inviting gathering space with cathedral tongue-and-groove ceilings, wood flooring, abundant natural light, and breathtaking river views. The den also provides easy access to the back deck, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living. The property offers gentle, easy access to the river, making it ideal for fishing, kayaking, or simply enjoying the sounds of flowing water. A portion of the house resides in the 500 year flood zone. Conveniently located just a few miles from downtown Lansing and only 15 minutes from downtown West Jefferson, this rare riverfront retreat combines privacy, natural beauty, and convenience in one remarkable package.
