Designed to take full advantage of roughly a 3 mile view of the Columbia River, this custom-built 2011 home is a standout. Enter through a custom-made gate designed and created by a local artist. Situated on a generous 0.6-acre lot, the property features beautifully designed rockscaping, full fencing, and (because it is on city services) space to add a pool or shop. Further, extensive blacktop parking has been added, including RV parking with full hookups and a dump station. Thoughtfully designed to maximize the view, the main living spaces are located on the upper level. Here, an open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area with a cozy corner fireplace and a large batwing island are perfect for gathering and entertaining. Expansive windows flood the space with natural light while framing breathtaking river and wildlife views. Step out to a covered 12x55 deck that is perfectly positioned for shade and outside enjoyment on even the hottest Tri-Cities summer day. The primary suite is also on the upper level, offering private deck access and those same stunning river views through beautiful windows. The ensuite bathroom includes a dual-sink vanity, soaking tub, walk-in closet with built-ins, private toilet room, and conveniently located laundry. As well as a powder bath for guests. Downstairs, a second living area provides additional flexibility, along with two bedrooms, and full bathroom. The lower level opens to a spacious covered patio, complete with a 220 plug ready for a future hot tub if desired. The finished garage is a 2 car tandem, providing room to park 4 cars. It even has a back garage door to allow for pull through or would make an awesome space for a home gym with fresh air. The garage also has w/d hookups for convenience of downstairs bedrooms. Because the home is situated in front of the neighboring homes, it gives the feeling of peace and privacy. You will never get bored of watching water sports, cruises, and wildlife go by. PLUS, enjoy front-row excitement during boat races from your vantage point at the third turn. Or take advantage of the back gate access to river walking and biking trails. Additional highlights include solid wood doors, granite and quartz surfaces throughout, included appliances and yard art, solar panels help keep utility costs low and unforgettable sunsets that make this home truly special.
