Welcome to 9854 Rivergate Dr. NW, where tranquility meets elegance. As you pull into the horseshoe drive, you're greeted by a fully stocked pond and a cozy gazebo - the perfect spot for morning coffee, a chat with an old friend, or a glass of wine after a long day.

The two-bay garage is ideal for ATVs, kayaks, a golf cart, and a car, with room to spare for general storage. Tucked along the river and under Spanish moss-covered trees, the guest house offers easy access to parking and the main house. With a ¾ bathroom and kitchenette, it's cleverly designed to accommodate in-laws, rowdy teens, or that one uncle who needs his own space. This property provides a truly unique waterfront lifestyle with only one neighbor, no crowds of beachgoers, and plenty of waterfront space for sunbathing or late nights around a fire.
