Follow the road out to the Russian River and you'll find this peaceful little pocket just off Highway 116 quiet, semi wooded, and a world away from the everyday. Tucked at the end of Sylvan Way, this well-loved 3-bedroom, 2-full-bath home is single level, with just a few steps to the front door. The river is part of the lifestyle here. Recent heavy pruning and landscaping have opened up beautiful views, and steps from the property lead right down toward the water grab the kayaks, walk down, and put them in. The home sits elevated above the flood zone and has never taken on water. Inside, vaulted ceilings and abundant natural light create an easy, open feel. There's a formal dining room plus a kitchen with its own bar-style dining area, making the home comfortable for both everyday living and gathering with friends. A detached garage includes a spacious extra room that works beautifully as an game room, guest space, or storage. And then there's the location: about 5 minutes to Duncan's Mills for coffee, dinner and a little village wandering, roughly 10 minutes to the Sonoma Coast and beaches, and close to all the river has to offer. This is Russian River living peaceful, private, and connected to the outdoors, with the coast just down the road. It's good to be home.
Spectacular Riverfront sanctuary;south-facing, the all-day sun warms the huge deck,multiple back yard spaces and the new flag-stone terrace.New redwood and steel retaining walls create multi-level enjoyment while keeping the home high-and-dry(certified above the 100-year flood level).A unique home, built in 2006, with private access to the pristine Russian River.Located at the end of a quiet, safe cul-de-sac,the house has large open plan living room-kitchen area with a window seat and sliding doors out to the deck overlooking the river.A cook's-kitchen with granite countertops and GE stainless steel appliances, with a separate dining room. Recessed lighting throughout,3 bedrooms in the main house with a bonus bedroom adjacent. The list of amenities is so long it is an attachment.Imagine your Sunday,walk down to the River,watch the ducks, and take the kayaks out on the glassy water. Come home to barbecue with friends on the deck, followed by an evening soak in the hot tub over the River
