131 49th Avenue E, West Fargo, ND 58078 (MLS# 7041207)

Overview

Description

An extraordinary executive residence set on one private acre of treed riverfront, where visionary architecture meets uncompromising engineering. Designed with both beauty and resilience in mind, this one-of-a-kind home features solid steel structural beams, reinforced concrete walls, and tornado-rated construction, creating a structure as strong as it is stunning. Inside, modern finishes complement a brilliant architectural layout with dramatic angles, trapezoid footprint, and a distinctive tower element that creates striking visual character throughout. Expansive windows perfectly frame the surrounding river and woodland views, bringing natural beauty into every space. Luxury details abound: heated floors, black granite, custom cabinetry, jetted tub, as well as UV protected glass, all with electronically controlled custom window shades. The thoughtfully designed living spaces include a gallery room and intimate conversation room ideal for entertaining or quiet retreat. The home is equipped with in-ground lighting, smart sensor thermostats, state of the art heating and cooling, including floor heat in the finished garage and 4' of sand-heat sink concrete which is a form of geothermal heat storage. A rare combination of architectural artistry, structural innovation, and peaceful natural surroundings—this is riverfront living reimagined!
