Impeccably manicured landscaping with underground sprinklers in the front yard enhances the property's appeal.

For those who love outdoor activities, the backyard provides a unique opportunity to fish right from the river, while nearby public lands offer easy access to hunting, including elk and other wildlife. The home is equipped with a Clayton wood-burning forced-air furnace with a diesel backup for warmth and efficiency, as well as supplemental electric wall heaters for added comfort.
