Perched above the river on a wooded bluff, 141 Riverside Drive NE, a defining feature of this home is how it makes you feel the moment you step inside-offering a seamless blend of original character, versatile living spaces, and the quiet serenity that only waterfront living can provide. A spacious overlook platform at the top of the bluff creates an unforgettable spot for relaxing, entertaining, or taking in panoramic river views through every season. From here, the staircase winds down the bluff, providing access to the water's edge. Gather around the outdoor stove on cool evenings, listen to the sounds of nature, and savor the exceptional privacy of this tree-lined retreat. Inside, original hardwood floors, built-ins and kitchen cabinetry preserve the home's warmth and character. The main level features two bedrooms and a 3/4 bathroom, while the finished upper half-story offers a private third bedroom tucked away from the main living spaces. The flexible lower level expands the home's functionality with an additional bedroom, living area, kitchen, and laundry. Featuring fresh carpeting, this layout is perfectly suited for multigenerational living, extended-stay guests, a dedicated work-from-home suite, or potential long-term rental income. Conveniently located near St. Cloud State University, downtown amenities, parks, and trails, this property combines easy access to everyday destinations with a distinctive, immersive connection to nature. More than a home overlooking the Mississippi, this is a place to slow down, spread out, and enjoy riverfront living in a setting that feels truly special.
