Listing details for W12771 735th Ave, River Falls, WI 54022 : A Rare Riverfront Legacy Property 6+ Acres on the Saint Croix | Historic Stone Estate Welcome to a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a truly extraordinary property — a historic estate set on over 6 acres of secluded natural beauty with nearly 500 feet of private, sandy shoreline along the wild and scenic Saint Croix River. The original structure, built in the 1840s atop solid limestone bedrock, is a rare surviving example of early frontier craftsmanship. Its 20-inch thick stone walls along with historic doors and enduring character speak to a time long past — while every inch has been thoughtfully modernized for the comfort and convenience of today. In 2002, the home underwent a meticulous renovation that preserved its soul while integrating high-efficiency systems, spray foam insulation, Andersen windows, updated plumbing and electrical throughout and a back-up whole house generator. Inside the main residence, timeless materials set a serene tone — with refinished historic woodwork and a magnificent hand crafted wood-burning fireplace as the centerpiece. The tranquil wrap around sun-drenched porch embraces the home from the south and west. The open-concept floor plan lends itself to a simple, peaceful lifestyle while also accommodating entertaining space for large or intimate gatherings. Upstairs, you’ll find two inviting bedrooms including a generous primary bedroom and a nicely appointed ¾ bath. Beyond the main house lies a charming studio, echoing the same rich materials and thoughtful design — including a full bath, side bar and laundry. This versatile space is perfect for use as a home office, cozy relaxing niche, or writer/artist studio. In-floor electric heat and a mini-split system keep this space comfortable throughout the seasons. Outdoor living here is nothing short of breath taking. The 56' x 40' stamped concrete multi-level patio with built in buffet offers an elegant space to entertain large groups or simply dine and relax beneath the open sky. The peaceful sound of the lighted waterfall built into the patio sets the perfect backdrop to your activities. To the south, an expansive yard flows gently to a sandy shoreline, offering endless opportunities for swimming, kayaking, bonfires, and pure riverfront serenity. Watch the eagles soar in this glorious portion of the Saint Croix that showcases open areas of water year-round. This is so much more than a home — it’s a sanctuary. A place where the past and present meet in perfect harmony. Where nature, history, and privacy create a retreat unlike anything else on the market. Being sold fully furnished and appointed, this turn key estate invites you to move right in and begin making memories from day one.
