Stunning Custom Riverfront Retreat Built by Pete Vallas - Nestled on nearly 1.5 acres with panoramic river views, this custom-built 2004 home is a rare find. Tucked away from the road for ultimate privacy, the exterior showcases classic brick and cedar shaker siding, a double garage with workshop, and lush landscaping supported by a full sprinkler system. Enjoy riverfront living with a bulkhead, covered boat slip with lift, sun deck with steps into the water, and a covered riverside seating area perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Inside, you're welcomed by refined craftsmanship and timeless design. The main living areas are accented with wood ceilings and recessed lighting. The spacious living room features a fireplace, custom built-ins, and an entire wall of windows framing the river view. Open-concept dining and living areas flow seamlessly into the chef’s kitchen, which boasts floor-to-ceiling custom cabinetry, granite countertops, a built-in curio cabinet, and high-end stainless appliances, including a FiveStar commercial-grade range, oven, warming drawer, and Bosch dishwasher. Just off the kitchen is a charming mudroom complete with a sink, cabinets, walk-in pantry, and a cozy window seat with storage. The primary suite offers private patio access and a spa-like bath with dual vanities, a shower with dual shower heads, and a walk-through his-and-hers closet area. Arched doorways, recessed lighting, and top-tier finishes carry throughout the home. Step out to the large covered patio with slate flooring, or unwind in the private courtyard overlooking the river. With every detail thoughtfully designed for luxury and comfort, this is riverfront living at its finest. An extra bonus to this waterfront home is that there is NO FLOOD INSURANCE REQUIRED. I know it all sounds too good to be true, so don't take my word for it, come see for yourself.

PENINSULA
Single-Family Residential Districts
These districts are composed of both developed and largely undeveloped areas. The developed areas contain mainly one-family dwellings and small open areas, usually subdivided, where residential development seems likely to occur; few two-family and multiple-family dwellings are found in these developed areas. It is anticipated that most of the large undeveloped areas will ultimately be developed for residential use. The district regulations are designed to protect the residential character of the developed areas by prohibiting commercial activities and encouraging a suitable neighborhood environment for family life.
