Life Above the Eagles, With the River Valley as Your Backdrop

Before the alarm, gentle light comes over the bluffs and spills across the river valley, and from your perch at the top of La Crescent you get a front-row seat. Coffee in hand, you watch the valley wake up, and if you’re lucky an eagle drifts past below you, riding the morning air. Mornings here are quiet. The home sits on a cul-de-sac, so there’s no traffic, just birds chirping and a squirrel rustling through the leaves.

Inside, there’s room to breathe. More than 4,200 square feet spreads across three levels, with wide hallways that never feel crowded. The living room is anchored by a gas fireplace, and its windows frame the treetops. Down the hall, the kitchen and dining area are made for lingering. The center island invites someone to pull up a stool and talk while dinner comes together or pop out the side door to take in a deep breath of fresh air. Next door, the sun room catches the afternoon light, a natural spot for a good book, a few plants, an invigorating home office or just watching the seasons change.

Midday, the house makes room for whatever the day needs. With five bedrooms plus a 484-square-foot bonus room upstairs (with its own half bath), a home gym, game room, playroom, craft room ... fits easily. Everyone has space to spread out and get things done, and the layout keeps plenty of privacy. The primary suite on the main level is a quiet retreat with its own bath and a walk-in closet, with a bonus sink so no one has to elbow each other at the vanity. 

By evening, the house reconnects. Every level has its own gathering space, so there’s always somewhere to gather. Upstairs, the bonus room is ready for guests, games, a studio, or a project that’s been waiting for the right space. Downstairs, the walkout lower level opens into a 23' x 18' recreation room with the home’s second gas fireplace, along with two more bedrooms and a full bath. Over 700 square feet of unfinished space below (with access to the mudroom) gives you room for storage, a workshop, or whatever comes next.

Then the sun starts to set over the valley, painting the sky in colors that can’t be replicated. When the fall chill sets in, you step out the lower-level doors to the backyard, where there’s room for a fire pit and a long evening around the flames under the stars.

The kitchen and bathrooms are ready for a new owner’s vision, and with a footprint this size, the possibilities really are endless. This home is a blank slate in one of the most breathtaking spots in La Crescent.

The next chapter of this hilltop story is waiting to be written. Come see the view for yourself.
