Welcome to this thoughtfully remodeled pre-civil war home that sits right on the St. Croix River. While this adorable home is the perfect private getaway for you and your family, it's proximity to downtown Taylors Falls makes it easy to get around and explore the many things this river town has to offer. Enjoy hiking along the river with your family and friends. **A new outdoor sauna is coming Winter 2025 for you to warm up in after a day of skiing!** The space This home was designed to bring peace and relaxation to your vacation, while also offering nearby adventure. It is on a quiet street right on the St. Croix River, yet only a few minutes’ walk to downtown Taylors Falls, offering cafés, mini golf, and shopping. Continue your walk to the boat tours and hiking trails of Interstate State Park with breathtaking views of the river and bluffs. A short drive gets you to a variety of wineries, wedding venues, golfing, shopping, restaurants, hiking, kayaking, canoeing, and Wild Mountain with numerous year-round activities.  While in the home, relax in this peaceful escape right on the river. Enjoy bird watching on the front porch while sipping your morning coffee. Take a nap on the porch daybed while listening to the river flow by, or have a drink with your friends on the porch swings. Play games or listen to records while you visit with loved ones in front of the fire, or cook up a gourmet meal with the well-stocked kitchen for bakers and chefs alike. End the day with an amazing night’s sleep in one of four bedrooms, each offering comfy memory foam beds. An extra space to sleep on the sofa bed is also available for extra guests, as well as a twin daybed on the porch during the warmer months. Reliable and fast Wi-Fi is available for those who need it for entertainment or work, as well as a smart TV with all of the major streaming services. A large yard has plenty of space for bonfires, a game of bags, or even volleyball! Guest access Keypad entry. Space for at least four vehicles in the driveway. Guests have full access to the home, except the utility room in the basement. The space across the street right along the river is mine as well, so feel free to enjoy your morning coffee or evening beverage sitting on the bench facing the beautiful river. Please do NOT attempt to access the river here, it is very steep and not safe. NEW: garage access for you and your group this winter. Keep your vehicle inside the elements and store your skis and snowboards in the garage! Other things to note The outdoor space has been recently updated to include a large firepit area on the side of the house with a privacy wall that will allow for a private and cozy atmosphere. Plenty of dry wood for your bonfire is available in the far shed. The overall landscaping has also been updated and has a clean look. The yard is plenty big with room for bocce ball, cornhole, volleyball, and frisbee golf! All games are kept in the shed for your use. Family-friendly with baby and kid gear (safety gates, pack ‘n play, high chair, and toys). The fireplace does get hot so please watch your children. There is a protective screen provided to place around it. Please no parties at all. This street and my neighbors have become very special to me, and this house is the perfect place to get away and relax with family and friends. If a party is on your mind, a different property might be a better fit. The kitchen table has two leaves which can expand the table to include 10 guests. Extra chairs are in the garage for your use, if needed.
