About this home

Nestled along one of the Yakima River's most extraordinary stretches of waterfront, this impeccably maintained 3 bed, 1 bath home offers a riverfront setting that is impossible to replicate. Boasting extensive, true low-bank river frontage, you'll enjoy breathtaking views of Peoh Point, access to the river & endless opportunities for fly fishing, kayaking, floating or relaxing along the water's edge. A long private drive leads to this secluded retreat, where protected Tribal land across the river & PSE-owned property bordering one side create an exceptional level of privacy w/ virtually no neighboring homes in sight. Thoughtfully updated throughout, the home features high-end appliances, a cozy propane fireplace, heated floors, new mini-split heating & cooling & a spacious primary bedroom with French doors opening to a brand-new Trex deck overlooking the river. A second Trex deck, high-quality gazebo, hot tub, & storage shed complete the property. Previously operated as a successful short-term rental, this home is equally suited as a full-time residence, vacation getaway or investment opportunity. Set on just over 3 acres across 2 separate parcels, the property offers exceptional flexibility. The home has its own septic system, while the second parcel features an approved 4-bedroom septic design, its own well, & power on site. Build a second home or ADU (subject to approvals) continue renting2 RV spaces or enjoy the added privacy. Home & land parcels also listed independently
