Tucked near the entrance to desirable Potter Valley, this updated 1-bedroom, 2-bath cottage offers a rare blend of charm, usability, and riverfront setting on 1.2 acres along the East Fork of the Russian River. Behind the automatic gated entrance you’ll find this private & serene property. The home has been thoughtfully and extensively expanded and remodeled with a new roof, an updated kitchen featuring quartz countertops and gas range, as well as a beautifully finished bathroom with nicely appointed tile detailing. The land makes this property really shine- enjoy a sunny, grassy meadow, a fenced garden area ready for planting with raised beds, and direct access to the river, creating a peaceful, usable outdoor space that’s hard to find. A detached garage/workshop adds flexibility for projects, storage, or hobby use. With well water and a manageable footprint, this property is ideal as a full-time residence, weekend retreat, or investment opportunity in a sought-after rural setting just minutes from town.
