5653 Gleason McAbee Falls Rd, Priest River, ID, 83856
About This Home
A rare opportunity to own one of the most special riverfront properties in North Idaho. Set on over 5 level acres with more than 700 feet of gentle Priest River frontage, this remarkable property offers a setting that is nearly impossible to replicate. The views are breathtaking in every direction--from the flowing river below to the dramatic backdrop of Black Butte Ridge. Privacy is unmatched. Across the river lies Idaho State land, while the U.S. Forest Service peninsula to the north helps preserve the natural beauty and seclusion of this incredible setting. Whether you're enjoying a morning coffee by the water, gathering around the firepit with family and friends, or playing a round on the owner's custom par-3 9-hole golf course, this property is designed to be enjoyed for generations. The comfortable 2-bedroom, 2-bath home offers 1,232 square feet of living space and is perfectly positioned to capture river views from nearly every window. Built for year-round enjoyment, the home features a stunning Brain Rock masonry propane fireplace, an attached two-car garage, and a screened porch overlooking the river that serves as the perfect seasonal sleeping porch or gathering space. Properties like this stay in families for a reason. Once you experience the beauty, privacy, and peace this setting provides, you'll understand why. A true legacy property on the Priest River.
