River views and river access are often ranked as one of the most valuable features in real estate and can boost a properties long term value by 50% or more… and this timeless craftsman style home in the Preserve has both. The river border land behind the house is part of a 48-acre forever protected conservation easement to keep your view and access unobstructed. Through that easement you have direct access to stone steps down to “Grant’s Cove” on the Henry's Fork river for swimming, fishing, paddle boarding and tubing. For full size boats, canoes and kayaks, use the gated private neighborhood boat ramp just three lots down. Besides being a great investment, views of water promote what scientists call the "blue mind" effect, a calm meditative state that lowers cortisol and reduces stress. Which quiets the prefrontal cortex, easing anxiety and shifting the brain from overstimulation to a relaxed, reflective state that restores mental energy and fosters emotional balance. Just steps outside of this home, the Preserve’s amenities encourage physical health, with front door access to miles of paved walking paths that wind through 130 acres of master planned common area. Or venture out on the Preserve River Trail for a 3 mile round trip hike on along the banks of the Henrys Fork River, less than a minute walk from the home. Wildlife lovers will enjoy regular sightings of moose, bald eagles, sandhill cranes, and trumpeter swans right from the backyard. To the east, kids can enjoy a playing field and a circulated neighborhood pond. Extra features include: wood burning fireplace, heated garage with an 240V outlet, endless hot water heater, in-ground trampoline, 128 sqft storage shed attached to garage, 2,400 sqft of storage space in crawlspace, a 120ft deep well, four 12x24ft garden plots… oh and did we mention the river views? ;)
