Waterfront Home and/or Vacation Rental Property Enjoy direct access to the Mississippi River with a brand-new dock off your back yard. Tie your boat up to your private dock in a protected harbor created by a multimillion dollar US Fish and wildlife/ WI DNR island-building project within the past decade. This not only enhanced the flow of water, but has also created the structure and habitat required for amazing hunting and fishing year-round. The property is located on a dead-end road that terminates with a free, modern boat landing. The boat landing is only a few hundred yards from your dock. A 1 1/2 mile channel through the fish and wildlife area provides direct access to the main channel the Mississippi River. The combination of shade and the fresh breeze off the water cools down the hottest summer days. This is a 2 bedroom, 1 1/2 bathroom home with recent updates, including a brand-new kitchen, granite countertops and new appliances. It has all new woodwork, and a large bathroom with new, tiled shower with a partial glass block wall. All cabinetry and fixtures in the bathroom are new as well, including granite countertop. There is a beautiful four season sunroom. Built in 1986, the house was originally heated with electricity, and most of the electric heat registers remain providing the opportunity to “zone” the heat during the colder months. Central forced-air HVAC and air-conditioning was added approximately 10 years ago. The house is amazingly energy-efficient. In the winter the south-facing glass results in very little additional heating required. Enjoy a wood fire in the modern wood stove with glass door. While there is no bathtub, there is a newer salt water hot tub on the front patio. Enjoy stunning views of the river while soaking in the hot tub. There is a 5’ crawlspace under the entire structure except for the sunroom. A new metal roof was added three years ago. The long-time neighbors to the north reside in California and use their river home for vacations, approximately one month per year. The friendly neighbors to the south are a retired couple who are avid travelers. It's very quiet and friendly neighborhood. There is one and a half car garage that is insulated with some nice built-in cabinetry and shelving. The larger storage shed has a garage door and is perfect for or any other type of storage. There is a second smaller storage building as well. A “wall" of approximately 20’ Arborvitae trees provides a visual barrier for the front yard from Spring Lake Road. There are a number of other mature trees on the property including oak and pine trees. This is a truly unique property in a truly unique area. Nowhere else with direct access to the main channel and backwaters of the Mississippi River between La Crosse Wisconsin and the Twin Cities will you find this kind of peace and quiet - on either side of the river. This is the only spot on the River that is also a significant distance from both the railroad tracks and the highways on both sides of the river. Enjoy unsurpassed views, direct water access, and quiet unavailable anywhere else in the tri-state area.
