Designed to embrace its surroundings, the home's principal living spaces take full advantage of the spectacular waterfront setting, where expansive windows frame river views and fill the interiors with natural light.The custom kitchen flows effortlessly into a sun-filled breakfast area overlooking the river before opening to the soaring great room, where walls of glass capture breathtaking river views and flood the space with natural light, while a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace anchors the room with warmth and character. Just beyond, the sunroom offers a quiet place to unwind, surrounded by natural light and tranquil views. Together, these beautifully connected spaces create a home that feels as inviting for everyday living as it is for memorable gatherings.

It is a place that invites you to slow down, unwind, and appreciate the natural beauty that surrounds you.
