Property Description

River Days :: Fireside Nights :: Guerneville Magic - This crisp, clean Guerneville retreat invites you to settle right into the River life. Spend the morning paddleboarding, sip local wines in the afternoon, then live your best river life grilling on the deck with the redwoods as your backdrop. Inside, the open-concept living and dining spaces flow naturally into the fresh, updated kitchen and straight out to the deck - an easy indoor - outdoor connection made for long lunches, sunset dinners, and lingering evenings among the trees. An incredible summer retreat or a year-round home, this is a house that shifts beautifully with the seasons. When the leaves turn and the air gets crisp, the dramatic floor-to-ceiling rock fireplace becomes the heart of the house. Beneath wood-beamed cathedral ceilings, with herringbone floors underfoot and a fire going, staying home feels like the best plan of all. The main level offers open-concept living, a half bath, and an expansive deck that extends the living space into the trees. Just a few steps down is the primary retreat, with a private deck perfect for morning coffee among the redwoods and a full bath finished in statement tile. Downstairs, a separate entrance leads to an additional bedroom, extra space ready to become an office, bunk room, or art studio, a full updated bath with walk-in shower, and its own fireplace - a private and flexible second living area for guests, family, or simply more room to spread out. The architectural character is all here, but so are the updates. Mini-split heat and A/C, quartz kitchen countertops, an updated backsplash and bathrooms, chic herringbone floors, and fresh exterior paint bring modern comfort to the mid-century character. A fully detached garage means there's plenty of room for kayaks, paddleboards, and all the gear that comes with River life. Downtown Guerneville and the Russian River are just minutes away, but once you're home, you may find very little reason to leave. Vintage California character, beautifully refreshed and a River retreat that feels good in every season.
