Description

Tucked along the Wisconsin River just outside the Town of Eagle River, this irresistibly cute and cozy 3BR/3BA home-with two en suites-feels like the kind of place you walk into and instantly exhale. It's warm, welcoming, and effortlessly homey- the kind of space where mornings start slow with coffee by the water and evenings end with the sound of the river drifting through the windows. Outside, it only gets better-tubers floating the rapids, an eagle's nest right on the property, and that peaceful Northwoods setting that never gets old. The home is truly move-in ready, yet still offers room to grow with a full unfinished basement already plumbed for a 4th bath. Add in the blacktop driveway and 12x20 shed with concrete slab for all the practical extras, and you've got the perfect balance of charm and function. Just minutes to town and with access to the Eagle River Chain over the dam, this isn't just a property-it's the kind of place where life slows down, memories stack up, and "just one more weekend" becomes a way of life.
We estimate this home will sell faster than 98% nearby.
