Crescent Hills 2nd Add

Perched on a wooded bluff above La Crescent, this 6,200+ sq. ft. contemporary estate is one of those rare homes where the setting does half the talking. Floor-to-ceiling walls of glass pull the Mississippi River, the La Crosse skyline, and miles of Driftless valley into nearly every room — a view that shifts from sunrise gold to a glittering carpet of city lights after dark. Tucked into the tree canopy at the end of a private drive, it delivers true seclusion, yet sits just minutes from town. Step inside to a two-story great room where 30' vaulted ceilings frame a dramatic stacked-stone gas fireplace with color-changing accent lighting, all beneath a wall of windows that opens straight to the horizon. The adjacent formal dining room makes its own statement with a cascading crystal chandelier and a designer botanical feature wall, set just off a leaded-glass entry. At the heart of the home, the custom kitchen is built for both everyday life and entertaining: rich cabinetry, natural-stone countertops, a gas-cooktop island, subway-tile backsplash, dual sinks, built-in beverage cooler, walk-in pantry, and a suspended custom light feature — all wrapped in glass and framed by warm hunter-green tones. It opens seamlessly to a glass-ceilinged three-seasons room finished in cedar-toned wood over a parquet floor: a light-drenched retreat by day, a stargazing lounge by night, and a private spa year-round with its own hot tub and infrared sauna. Work from home in style in the main-floor library, where floor-to-ceiling built-ins, a cozy gas fireplace, and deep navy walls create a true retreat. Nearby, a wet bar and lounge take full advantage of the panoramic bluff views. A versatile main-floor fourth bedroom currently serves as a fully outfitted workout room — one-level living at its most flexible. The primary suite is a sanctuary all its own: soaring vaulted ceilings, a wall of glass framing the valley, a gas fireplace with reclaimed-wood surround, and a spa-inspired bath featuring a freestanding soaking tub, a glass walk-in shower with multi-jet system, backlit vanity mirror, and generous walk-in closet. The additional bedrooms carry the same light-filled, view-oriented feel, several framing the valley through their own walls of windows. Downstairs, the finished lower level delivers entertainment and game rooms, a second stacked-stone gas fireplace, and a wet bar built for hosting. Step outside to two covered porches — including a treetop deck with a gas fire table — where morning coffee and evening cocktails come with a front-row seat to the valley below and the lights of the city beyond. Recent improvements include fresh interior paint, designer wallpaper, and a new EV charger in the 3-car garage, layered on newer HVAC, flooring, lighting, and landscaping. Gas fireplaces anchor the great room, library, primary suite, and lower level, adding warmth throughout the seasons. This is Driftless-region living at its finest — modern architecture, striking design, and total privacy, wrapped in the bluffs, trees, and river valleys that define the area, yet only minutes to La Crosse shopping, dining, healthcare, and the Mississippi itself. Homes that pair this level of craftsmanship with unobstructed river and city-light views come along rarely in this market. Schedule your private showing and experience it in person — the photos only hint at what this bluff-top estate truly delivers.
