About this home

Experience luxury mountain living in this FULLY FURNISHED executive estate, privately situated on over 3 beautifully landscaped acres with stunning MOUNTAIN VIEWS, an enclosed saltwater pool, hot tub, gazebo, and attached double garage. This exceptional 3-bedroom, 4.5-bath home also features a bonus room and offers the perfect blend of elegance, comfort, and resort-style outdoor living. The driveway leads to a double attached garage and plenty of room for extra parking, and welcoming curb appeal highlighted by maple trees, colorful flowers, and extensive landscaping. Step onto the covered front porch and enter through beautiful beveled glass doors into a grand foyer featuring an impressive staircase. To the left, the spacious living room showcases a dramatic floor-to-ceiling two-sided rock fireplace shared with the formal dining room. Just beyond is the first of THREE luxurious Master Suites, complete with a spa-like bathroom featuring a jetted soaking tub, tiled walk-in shower, double vessel sinks, and custom closet with beautiful cabinetry. The well-appointed kitchen offers abundant cabinet and counter space, a pantry, and nearly new Frigidaire Gallery stainless steel appliances. From the adjacent breakfast area, a door opens to the upper-level porch overlooking the pool area below. Through a doorway from the kitchen are a convenient half bath and a room currently used as a home office. Upstairs, you'll find the first of TWO laundry areas and TWO additional oversized Master Suites. Each suite includes a private sitting room - one with a tanning bed!, expansive custom closet, and luxurious en-suite bath designed for comfort and privacy. The lower level is ideal for entertaining, featuring a large recreation room with a pool table included and access to the swimming pool, a wet bar area with sink and mini refrigerator, a bonus room, and full bath with a second laundry area and direct outdoor access. Outside, enjoy your own private retreat. The enclosed inground saltwater pool and hot tub are complemented by a stone fireplace, gas fire pit with nearby TV, and an octagonal gazebo currently serving as an exercise room. A former waterfall feature has been converted into a flower bed but can easily be restored. Additional highlights include a new roof in 2024, approximately 3-year-old HVAC system, Starlink wiring, and a new 250-gallon propane tank scheduled for installation. Enjoy peaceful rural privacy just minutes from the hospital, shopping, dining, and all the conveniences of downtown living.
