About This Home

Discover the charm and potential of this quaint home nestled on over 8 acres right along the beautiful Elk River. Perfect as a fishing retreat, short-term rental, remodel project, or the site for building your dream home. The main floor offers 1 bedroom and 1 full bath featuring a vintage clawfoot tub and mosaic tile flooring, plus an additional small room great for an office, library, or extra sleeping space. Upstairs you’ll find 3 bedrooms and a half bath that do not meet ANSI height requirements for HLA but provide plenty of extra room. Character abounds with beadboard, hardwood floors, and craftsman-style molding throughout. This home has only been owned by two other families, a rare find in today’s market. A large detached deck overlooks the Elk River and was built with the intention of becoming a bunkhouse—ready for your finishing touch.
