RiverView Retreat – Where Classic Charm Meets Coastal Comfort

River View Retreat on the Bay

Welcome to River View Retreat — your serene escape on the beautiful Taunton River. Just steps (less than 20 feet!) from the water’s edge, this peaceful haven offers stunning bay views, a brand new deck, and a comfortably furnished home perfect for unwinding and reconnecting with nature. Watch the seabirds, feel the ocean breeze, and enjoy the sights and sounds of local wildlife from sunrise to sunset.

This retreat is ideal for boating, kayaking, swimming, fishing, and exploring. The expansive 20,000 sq ft fenced-in lot includes a private saltwater shell beach, perfect for relaxing in the sun or shade, grilling with friends, or lounging on the new brick patio overlooking the bay.

Take a scenic walk just one mile down the road to Pearce’s Beach — a local favorite featuring a giant new red slide that kids will love!

Somerset Creamery: Known for the best ice cream in town
Aucklair’s Market: A top-notch local butcher with an impressive selection
