1768 River Bend Trail, Eagle River, WI 54521

Turn down the private, tree-lined drive on River Bend Trail and the Northwoods does the rest of the selling for you. This 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath home sits on 3.64 wooded acres in Eagle River, built for people who actually use a house — family gatherings, football Sundays, sun-up coffee on the porch, the whole rotation. Inside, cathedral ceilings and a wall of windows pull the woods right into the living room. The eat-in kitchen and dining area are made for a crowd. Two bedrooms and a full bath sit on the main floor along with laundry, so single-level living is on the table if you want it. Upstairs, a loft-style primary suite overlooks the living room below, with its own bath and a walk-in closet — private without being cut off from the rest of the house. Then there's the three-season porch — newly floored, with a pellet stove that means it's not just a July-and-August space. Coffee at sunrise, wine after dark, bugs and chill kept outside. The finished lower level adds a family room and exercise space, but the real showstopper is the 1,000 sq ft room — propane heat, wet bar, fridge, pool table and bathroom. Game day, kids' hangout, adult retreat — it plays all three roles depending on who asks. Outside is where this property stops competing and starts winning. A outdoor kitchen area and bar, two patio areas, and a back deck plus a wrap-around front deck turn the yard into its own destination. Part of the backyard is fenced — good news for pets and kids who'd rather not be supervised every second. Storage won't be a question mark here: a detached, heated 2.5-car garage with a lean-to plus a 1-car attached garage. New furnace and A/C in the last two years. Appliances are newer and stay with the home; furnishings are negotiable. This is a forever-home kind of property — growing families, downsizers who still want room to entertain, or anyone ready to make "up north" a permanent address instead of a weekend plan.
