What remains is the most exciting part--bringing it to completion with your own design perspective and personal style. Constructed with an uncompromising commitment to quality, the residence incorporates substantial steel framing, an Alaskan cedar roof, hand-crafted stonework, and Tischler custom mahogany windows--materials chosen for both their beauty and longevity. The main house is enclosed and framed, offering a strong architectural foundation for what will become a truly world-class home. Interior spaces are designed on a grand scale, including a 600 SF motorized three-season room that opens effortlessly to panoramic river views. The walkout lower level--spanning over 8,000 SF with fireplace--has been thoughtfully planned for a full lifestyle experience, with the potential for additional ensuite bedrooms, a full kitchen, golf simulator, wine room, and expansive entertaining areas. Along the water, a 180-foot dock with boat lift and jet ski ramp is already in place, setting the stage for effortless days on the river. Outdoor living is equally compelling, with a 4,000 SF terrace, a steel-reinforced primary suite balcony designed for a hot tub, and approvals in place for a cabana and resort-style pool.
