2851 garden highway
Great new price on a rare offering along the Sacramento River! Set on a serene stretch of riverfront, the River Chalet at 2851 Garden Highway presents a distinctive opportunity to own a multi-level architectural retreat just minutes from downtown Sacramento and the airport. Artfully designed across four levels, this 3-bedroom, 3-bath residence is defined by a sculptural spiral staircase that anchors the home from the ground up. From the moment you enter, the home reveals a consistent commitment to quality with refined materials, elevated finishes, and thoughtful craftsmanship carried throughout every space. The main living area is dramatic yet grounded, with soaring cathedral ceilings, expansive walls of glass framing uninterrupted water views, and rich Tigerwood flooring bringing warmth and depth to the space. The kitchen is beautifully appointed with cherry cabinetry, stone surfaces, and a breakfast nook positioned perfectly for quiet mornings overlooking the river. A private lower-level apartment offers flexibility for extended stays or elevated guest accommodations. The primary suite is a true sanctuary, featuring a spa-caliber bath with Blue Azul stone, heated floors, glass vessel sinks, and a Neptune soaking tub oriented toward the water. Outdoors, a wraparound deck flows seamlessly around a centuries-old oak, creating a rare treehouse-like experience suspended above the landscape. At the shoreline, a private dock with covered boat lift invites an unhurried rhythm of riverfront living. Enjoy your morning coffee by the water, sunset boat rides, and evenings that feel gently removed from the pace of the city. An adjacent parcel is also available, presenting a rare opportunity to expand within one of the region's most coveted waterfront settings. Private showings available by appointment.
