Hidden beyond a private driveway off scenic River Road lies one of Northern California's most unique country retreats. Set on 13.16 acres with neighboring farmland, expansive views of the Sutter Buttes, and a natural riparian landscape that provides remarkable privacy, this is a property where the setting is every bit as impressive as the home itself. Offering approximately 3,511 square feet, this custom home features 4 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms, including two spacious primary suites, generous living spaces, a game room, dual HVAC systems, and multiple wood-burning fireplaces. The dramatic great room showcases soaring beamed ceilings, an impressive floor-to-ceiling river rock fireplace, and walls of glass overlooking the backyard and in-ground pool. The covered porte-cochre creates a memorable entrance and hints at the home's distinctive architecture. While the floor plan has evolved over the years, the home still offers incredible character, generous proportions, and endless potential for someone ready to restore its original charm. Outside, enjoy an in-ground pool, detached storage buildings, and a former tennis court with exciting possibilities for a future shop, sport court, RV storage, or additional recreational space. A portion of the acreage remains in its natural state, creating a secluded wooded backdrop that attracts wildlife and enhances the peaceful setting, while the remaining land offers space to enjoy country living. Whether you're searching for a private residence, a weekend escape, a family retreat, or the ultimate hunting and fishing lodge, this property offers an opportunity that's becoming increasingly rare. The home is ready for its next chapter, but its greatest luxury can never be remodeled, its location.
