Escape to your own peaceful riverfront oasis on the St. Joseph River! Nestled on approximately 3 acres with 130+ feet of private frontage, this one-of-a-kind property offers a serene, wooded setting that feels like your own private park. This attractive storybook English cottage, originally built by an artist in the 1940s, is rich in character and history, featuring stunning stained-glass windows, soaring ceilings in the main living space, and a beautiful stone wood-burning fireplace. Once two separate structures, they were thoughtfully combined into a distinctive and inviting residence full of charm.
