The main floor flows from a foyer into a living space with vaulted coffered ceilings and brick accents. Kitchen counters are stainless steel, with herringbone wood floors and a Thermador gas range. Upstairs has three bedrooms, one with river views, sharing a fully updated bathroom. The walkout basement adds a rec room and second bathroom. Outside, there's an inground pool, a big deck for entertaining, and a fire pit right by the water's edge. A 4-car garage is heated and insulated. Water levels stay steady between the Merrickville and Clowes locks, so boating's straightforward. Updates include a metal roof in 2025, windows in 2019, and a new LG washer/dryer. Taxes run $5,435. Listed at $1,149,900, which is above the $874,450 median nearby, but the river access and renovations carry real weight.
