About 236681 Pheasant Falls Road

Experience your own private waterfront retreat where luxury, recreation, and nature come together in perfect harmony. Nestled on 3 beautifully wooded acres with an incredible 922 feet of frontage on the Rib River, this exceptional property offers a rare opportunity to own a year-round getaway, private residence, or potential vacation rental in a truly breathtaking setting. This charming 2-bedroom, 2-bath home is designed to showcase the beauty of its surroundings. Floor-to-ceiling windows and multiple French doors frame spectacular river views and fill the home with natural light. Whether you're enjoying your morning coffee or hosting family and friends, the expansive wraparound deck and gazebo provide the perfect place to relax and take in the peaceful waterfront scenery. Step outside and immerse yourself in nature. Launch your kayak directly from your own backyard and enjoy a leisurely paddle down the Rib River. Fish from the shoreline, picnic along the water's edge, or wander the property's moss-covered paths lined with fragrant wildflowers throughout the summer months. Wildlife enthusiasts will appreciate the abundance of nature that surrounds the property. Deer, wild turkeys, river otters, geese, ducks, finches, hummingbirds, and countless other species can often be spotted from the deck, while evenings bring the magical glow of fireflies dancing across the landscape. The property also features a spacious 2½-car garage with a workbench and potting area, along with an additional 10' x 10' storage shed for kayaks, fishing gear, and recreational equipment. Above the garage, you'll find an insulated bunkhouse complete with electricity and heat, providing the perfect space for guests, a hobby room, a private retreat, or additional sleeping quarters. Gather around the campfire for s'mores under the stars or explore the property's peaceful trails year-round. Every season brings new opportunities for adventure. Enjoy kayaking, fishing, hiking, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, and nearby snowmobile trails. The hiking and ski trails in Athens and Edgar are just a short drive away, while winter recreation awaits at Granite Peak Ski Area. Autumn transforms the property into a spectacular display of color, making every view picture-perfect. With 922 feet of Rib River frontage, 3 acres of private land, an insulated bunkhouse, stunning views, and endless recreational opportunities, this is more than a home—it's a waterfront sanctuary where memories are made and nature is enjoyed in every season.
