Description

Welcome to 15 Scenic Point Drive — a truly special bluff-top retreat perched above the Mississippi River in De Soto, Wisconsin. This beautifully maintained and extensively updated 2-bedroom, 2.5-bath cabin offers a rare combination of privacy, panoramic views, modern comfort, and rich character.

Nestled at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this home is surrounded by nature, wildlife, and wide-open skies. Daily visits from deer, wild turkeys, and migrating birds make this property a haven for nature lovers. Situated directly on the Mississippi Flyway, you will enjoy front-row seats to spring and fall bird migrations — and barge watching along the river is a local favorite.

Upgrades and Improvements

This property has been thoughtfully improved over the years with over a dozen major updates, many completed by licensed contractors:

• New roof, gutters, and exterior paint (2024)

• Composite decking, modern railings, and sidewalks (2021–2022)

• Custom Amish kitchen cabinetry and remodeled kitchen (2024)

• New refrigerator with ice maker and updated plumbing

• Updated bathrooms and lower-level remodel, including flooring, drywall, and lighting

• Electrical improvements, new lighting fixtures inside and out

• New front door and multiple window replacements (2025)

• New wall-mounted heat pump and air conditioning system

• Fiber optic internet installed to the property with current modem/router

All work was professionally done, with repairs from two well-handled insurance claims resulting in major functional and aesthetic upgrades. The home was tested for radon and asbestos — both returned negative.
