$1,587,000
Spanning 25 acres along the Salmon River, this private estate blends privacy, natural beauty, and potential. Its character and craftsmanship have earned national attention, including a feature on HGTV. The home offers nearly 5,000 sq. ft. of bright, comfortable living space with views of the Salmon River. Currently operated as a successful Airbnb in a municipality presently with no short term rental licensing requirement, it attracts guests looking for quiet, nature, and a place to unwind. The layout also works well for multi-generational living or for a Bed and Breakfast, with spacious areas on both levels and room for everyone to spread out. The property also includes a large detached outbuilding, built with scale that make it suitable for a variety of personal, creative or entrepreneurial uses. Buyers often picture it as a studio, workshop, gym, or even a future event space - a flexible building that can evolve with their needs over time. With 25 acres to work with, there's also room to imagine future additions-whether small cabins, geodomes, or other retreat-style elements that fit the landscape. These ideas would depend on the buyer's own exploration, but the land offers a setting where possibilities naturally come to mind. The property's history is part of its charm. A beautifully preserved water-powered sawmill sits along the river, adding a sense of heritage and authenticity that helped earn the estate its HGTV feature. It's a rare piece of the past that gives the property a unique identity and the potential for generation of hydropower. More than 1,000 feet of shoreline complete the setting, including a peaceful mill pool overlooking the falls-an inviting spot for swimming on warm summer days. Solar power provides an added layer of comfort and resilience, keeping the home running smoothly during service interruptions and reducing reliance on the grid. Private tours can be arranged through the listing agent. (id:49269)
