River Home For Sale

Set on 0.75 acres, this elevated property captures sweeping water views of the Wisconsin River. The setting is the standout, and the home delivers just as impressively, with a quiet neighborhood on the south side of Merrill and a layout designed to take full advantage of the waterfront from nearly every room. Inside, the foyer provides a functional entry with convenient closet storage before opening into the main living space. The living room is anchored by a gas fireplace and an oversized window that perfectly frames the river and offers direct access to the deck, which steps down to a brick patio - perfectly positioned for a fire along the river. The open-concept layout flows into a spacious kitchen designed for hosting, featuring extensive perimeter counter space with a built-in desk area, an island with oven and range, abundant cabinetry, and a raised bar-height counter overlooking the dining area. The dining space includes a bay window and built-in hutch for added storage and character. The primary suite is positioned to enjoy the view, complete with deck access, a walk-in closet, and a full bath with a jacuzzi tub and separate shower. A second main floor bedroom offers direct access to the main bath. The mudroom setup is ideal for everyday entry and includes a spacious main level laundry area. The walkout lower level feels like a true extension of the home, featuring a second gas fireplace, a bar setup just before the fully covered screened-in porch, creating an ideal space for entertaining while enjoying the river in any weather. Bedrooms four and five have the third bathroom nearby and offer large windows that bring in natural light, making the space feel bright and inviting. A spacious storage room and cedar closet add practical touches. Additional updates include backyard fencing, the roof, cement board siding, furnace, water heater, and central air.
