Every so often, a home comes along that feels different. It’s more than square footage or finishes—it’s about the feeling it gives you the moment you step inside. As a REALTOR and home stager, I see a lot of homes. But some stand out in a way that makes you stop and think, “This one is special.”
That’s exactly how I felt the first time I visited 1118 N 750 W, a rare riverfront log home tucked away on a quiet half-acre lot right in the heart of Provo. Yes, you read that right—a peaceful, private escape with 141 feet of Provo River frontage, just minutes from BYU, UVU, Utah Valley Hospital, shopping, dining, and endless outdoor recreation. It’s the best of both worlds: secluded, yet central.
Imagine walking out to your backyard and casting a line, floating on a tube in the summer, or simply skipping rocks at sunset—all without ever leaving home. This is the kind of connection to nature that’s becoming harder and harder to find.
From the moment you pull up, the home’s rustic log exterior and welcoming front porch set the tone. Inside, the warmth of cedar-beamed ceilings, a stone gas fireplace, and natural wood finishes immediately make you feel at home. A jetted tub offers the perfect way to unwind, and a spiral staircase leads to a spacious loft, ideal for an office, second family room, guest space, or conversion into two additional bedrooms and a second bathroom.
But the beauty of this property goes beyond charm. It's packed with practical features that make life easier—and more enjoyable. The oversized 810 sq ft garage (with a 9-foot-high door) is perfect for vehicles, tools, or outdoor toys. There’s also a large shed, ample RV parking, two laundry hookups, and Google Fiber for fast, reliable internet. The home has been thoughtfully updated with a new deck, newer furnace and A/C, updated interior doors, and a full sprinkler system controlled by bluetooth to keep the property looking its best with minimal effort.
Whether you're looking for a year-round residence, a peaceful second home, or even a future investment property, this one checks all the boxes. It offers not just a place to live—but a lifestyle that’s increasingly hard to find.
This is more than just a listing. It’s a rare opportunity to own a piece of nature, right in town.
Interested in seeing it in person? I’d love to give you a private tour. Homes like this don’t come along often—and when they do, they don’t last long.
