Description:

Amazing views from every room! This custom home built in 2007 sits ON the Mad River with bay and even ocean views. On a clear day you can see from Kings Peak all the way to Strawberry Rock! Absolutely ideal location just a short distance from Mad River Beach, Mad River Boat Ramp, and Hammond Trail, yet 10 minutes to Cal Poly and downtown Arcata. Enjoy your one of a kind vantage point from the deck off the living room- perfect for bird watching, observing wildlife, with nothing but the sounds of nature surrounding you. A second deck off the primary bedroom overlooks not only the river but the gorgeous garden area as well. You'll find a spacious second bedroom, office, laundry room and plenty of storage to boot. Located in the history rich "Tyee City" area of Arcata, this sanctuary is truly unique- offering an unparalleled mix of beach, river, nature, AND convenience. This one is definitely a MUST SEE!
