Poised along the riverbank in Covington's coveted Historic Licking Riverside District, this exceptional three-story townhouse offers some of the most breathtaking views in the tristate! From the moment you enter the foyer, a soaring ceiling sets the tone for a home that is equal parts dramatic and refined. Thoughtfully updated throughout with fresh paint, the home boasts a newer roof with warranty, solar panels with warranty, newer water heaters, a new skylight, solar-tinted windows, and extensive interior remodels including bathrooms, fireplace, office, closets, and bedrooms. Custom Closets by Design, blackout blinds, whole-home filtration... it has all been done! The flexible office space stands out with exposed brick and a classic tin ceiling, while the updated kitchen features modern stainless steel appliances and a charming breakfast nook that walks out to one of three expansive decks, each level offering direct outdoor access and unforgettable views. Additional deck underside- roofing updates ensure year-round and all-weather enjoyment. The converted fireplace burns both wood and gas and is accented by a custom mantle, creating a cozy yet stylish focal point. Upstairs, spacious third-floor bedrooms include a stunning primary suite with river and city views, a bay window, modern tiled ensuite bath, and dual shower heads. With three tiers of decking, incredible natural light, and a truly irreplaceable location, this home is a rare opportunity to own a front-row seat to one of the most iconic views in the region.
