About This Home
As of April 2025Stunning views of the Galien River Marsh from your own backyard with access to one mile of Riviera Community Association beach just three blocks away. Enjoy remarkable wildlife, paddle sports and a dock for your very own boat. This half-acre property sits adjacent to the Galien River Marsh, a protected Great Lakes coastal marsh, one of the richest habitats on earth. The Marsh is dominated by countless wetland plant species providing a critical habitat for birds, turtles, frogs, fish and other creatures that live there or have stopped to visit along their migration routes. Perfect parcel to build on or you may consider a transformation of the existing Mid-Century brick and limestone home with high beamed ceilings, retro eat-in kitchen with bar, living room, three bedrooms and one full bath on the main level. The walkout lower level has a huge recreation room, laundry, bathroom, sauna, workshop area and tons of storage. Please do not walk property without an appointment.
Perfect setting for the nature lover, providing an authentic connection with the outdoors. Terrific opportunity to own property in the Riviera Community with one of the best beaches in Harbor Country.
