About this home

Over 3900 sq ft under roof with 2325 heated sq ft, 324 sq ft main level 3 season room and 1275 sq ft unfinished space on lower level. If you are looking for a well built home with tons of character, this is it - your mountain retreat with room to live, create, work and grow. This rare custom-built brick ranch sits privately on 0.81 acres and offers an exceptional combination of space, flexibility and opportunity. Lovingly maintained by the same owner for more than 40 years, this timeless home provides the solid construction and generous spaces that are increasingly difficult to find. Imagine having room to build, garden, play and breathe, surrounded by mature trees, established gardens, stone retaining walls and abundant wildlife. Outdoor living comes naturally with a 26'x12' covered front porch, two concrete patios and a 324 sq ft enclosed three-season room overlooking the peaceful landscape. Inside, natural light fills the home through multiple skylights and sun tubes. The main level features two ensuite bedrooms, a third guest bedroom and full bath, along with spacious living, dining and gathering areas. The kitchen is warm and inviting, featuring a fireplace, coffee bar, skylight and generous workspace. A bright living room and expansive three-season room provide comfortable spaces for everyday living or entertaining. The lower level includes a family room with a second fireplace and a bonus room that could serve as a home office, hobby room, exercise space or guest overflow, a huge mud room with washer/dryer hookups and sink, workshop space and double tandem garage. The property's flexible layout also provides possibilities for multigenerational living, extended guest accommodations or other lifestyle needs. Adding to the sense of privacy, lot 7 across the street is available and can be sold as a bundle with this home plus the seller owns Lot #8 across the drive. They intend to leave it vacant, however, should the seller decide to sell in the future, the buyer will have a first right of refusal. More than a home, this is an opportunity to create the mountain lifestyle, workspace and flexible living arrangement you've been looking for—all just minutes from everyday conveniences.
