Property Description

Offered at lot value, a rare opportunity to acquire a gated legacy estate in the prestigious Rivercrest Addition, encompassing approximately 3.6 acres per survey. Exceptionally private and heavily wooded, the property features a private lake, private well, whole-home generator, and horse stables with pasture, all set among expansive grounds. The existing, mostly single-story home offers beautiful views over the private lake and charming finishes, with the option to live in the current residence or build new on this expansive lot. An extraordinary setting to create a private compound with a primary residence, guest house, staff quarters, garages, additional outbuildings, tennis court, pool, or other custom amenities limited only by vision. For the buyer seeking greater scale, the adjoining 26 W. Rivercrest (MLS# 24159995) may also be purchased, creating a combined estate of more than 7.3 acres. A truly rare Rivercrest offering of acreage, serenity, and potential.
