44.83 ACRES • DEEP RIVER FRONTAGE • PRIVATE TRAILS • MODERN UPGRADES • ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES
Opportunities like this are few and far between. Nestled on 44.83 acres with approximately ¼ mile of frontage along the Deep River, 124 Riverside Road offers the perfect blend of privacy, recreation, and modern convenience. While the home is surrounded by mature hardwoods and the river is not currently visible from the house, the property offers significant potential for future enhancement, allowing the next owner to create their own vision of this riverfront setting.
The custom-built brick home features 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, a dedicated office/den, multiple living areas, and an oversized walk-in pantry. The kitchen includes granite countertops, updated appliances, abundant cabinetry, and generous workspace. Designed with accessibility in mind, the home offers wide hallways, wider doorways, and a no-step primary shower. The home is also equipped with a propane-powered standby generator.
Over the years, the owners have invested in the home and infrastructure. Recent improvements include a whole-home solar energy system, two Tesla Powerwall battery backup systems, and a SPAN Smart Electrical Panel (2025). Additional updates include a professionally recoated and painted metal roof, two new water heaters (2024), gigabit fiber internet, a new well pump (2022), and seamless gutters.
Beyond the home, the property includes approximately three miles of private bridle and walking trails suitable for horseback riding, hiking, ATV use, hunting, or enjoying the acreage and wildlife. The barn provides flexibility for horses, equipment, workshop space, or storage, with water service already extended to it.
