Description

Architect-Designed Salmon River Retreat with Protected Riverfront Views. Tucked along the Salmon River in a setting that feels worlds away from everyday life, this architect-designed sanctuary offers the rare opportunity to wake each morning to spectacular sunrises, shimmering water views, soaring eagles, and the peaceful sounds of nature. The Salmon River flows into the Connecticut River and is renowned for its scenic beauty, recreational opportunities, and abundant wildlife. Across the river lies state-owned Machimoodus State Park, with additional nearby protected lands helping preserve the natural landscape and ensuring the views remain unspoiled for generations to come. Protected riverfront views with state-owned parkland across the water are a rare and valuable feature, offering enduring privacy and a natural backdrop that cannot be replicated. Completely rebuilt by an architect in 2012 and freshly painted in 2025, this hidden gem offers a rare blend of rustic elegance, modern comfort, and breathtaking natural beauty. Soaring skylit ceilings, exposed beams, hand-hewn wood railings, and custom wood finishes create warmth and character throughout the home. The main level includes a spacious bedroom with a double closet, custom log bed with storage, and sliding doors opening to a scenic upper deck overlooking the river and sunrise views. The welcoming entry room provides additional sleeping accommodations with a daybed, trundle, and futon., The upper living area is filled with natural light from expansive windows showcasing panoramic river views, dazzling moonrises, and ever-changing seasonal beauty, with direct access to the upper deck for outdoor enjoyment. The finished walkout lower level features exposed beams, a wall of windows overlooking the water, and a cozy lodge-inspired atmosphere. Sliding doors lead to an expansive riverside deck ideal for entertaining, dining, or simply relaxing while taking in the sights and sounds of the river. The well-appointed kitchen offers granite countertops and abundant storage. Outside, a level riverfront setting includes a private dock perfect for kayaking, fishing, wildlife viewing, and enjoying the tranquility of the surrounding landscape. Bald eagles, blue herons, ducks, and other wildlife are frequent visitors. A one-person and two-person kayak are included, making it easy to begin exploring the river immediately. Whether enjoying coffee on the upper deck at sunrise, launching a kayak from your private dock, or entertaining friends on the expansive riverside deck, every day feels like a getaway. Thoughtfully maintained and move-in ready, this is more than a home-it's a lifestyle, a retreat, and a place where unforgettable memories are made. Public records show 1003 main level and 895 basement which is the heated living room, kitchen, dining room, and bathroom and was built on original cabin foundation.
