A Riverfront Retreat Awaits You Imagine waking up every morning to the serene sounds of the river flowing right outside your door. Welcome to this comfortable 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom single-story home, where peaceful living meets modern luxury. Located on the East Branch of the Eel River this charming property offers direct river access from your backyard, creating a private retreat you'll never want to leave. Step inside and be greeted by a completely updated kitchen that's ready for both everyday meals and special gatherings. With gleaming granite countertops, a double oven gas range, new refrigerator, and microwave, every corner of this kitchen is designed for both function and beauty. All new appliances make cooking and entertaining a breeze, and you'll love the open, airy feel of the space as it flows seamlessly into the dining and living areas. The kitchen also features plenty of cabinetry for storage, making it a perfect blend of practicality and style. The home's thoughtful upgrades continue throughout. A new furnace was installed just two years ago, and the property's spray insulation and replaced ducting (in 2008) ensure it stays cool in the summer and cozy in the winter. Whether you're relaxing indoors or entertaining friends and family, comfort is guaranteed. The laminate floors throughout the main living spaces add warmth and elegance, while the large windows allow natural light to flood the rooms, enhancing the sense of openness. Outside, the beauty of nature awaits you with a newly installed retaining wall. Your backyard just steps away from the river is an absolute dream. Enjoy the tranquility of the river as you tend to the newly planted garden beds, which are set up on timers for easy maintenance. Whether you're growing fresh vegetables or flowers, this space is ready to nurture your green thumb. The mature fruit trees add an extra touch of charm. With plenty of room for outdoor dining and relaxation, the backyard truly feels like an extension of your living space. The property also features an attached garage, but the real bonus is the large, permitted detached garage with a metal roof and concrete slab. This additional space is perfect for storing vehicles, hobbies, or even using as an office. The possibilities are endless! With some additional permitting, the shop could also be easily converted into an accessory dwelling unit (ADU), offering even more potential for guests or rental income. As if the home itself isn't enough, the location only adds to the appeal. With easy access to Hwy 101, you're just a short drive from the Benbow Inn and Golf Course, offering both convenience and recreation. Plus, you're nestled in a quiet, safe neighborhood on a dead end street that provides the peaceful lifestyle you've been seeking. The nearby river offers opportunities for fishing, kayaking, or simply relaxing by the water. This home isn't just a place to live; it's a place to truly live well. With its riverfront setting, modern comforts, and prime location, this is more than just a house it's your new sanctuary.
