Offering exceptional space, privacy, and breathtaking long-range mountain views, this property is an outstanding opportunity for a year-round residence, mountain retreat, or gathering place for family and friends. From the moment you enter, abundant oversized windows bring the outdoors in, filling the home with natural light and showcasing the surrounding mountain scenery throughout the seasons. The spacious open-concept kitchen flows seamlessly into the main living area, creating an inviting setting for entertaining while keeping the spectacular views front and center. With more than 4,000 square feet of finished living space, 4 bedrooms, and 4 full baths, the home offers plenty of room for both everyday living and overnight guests. Newer wood flooring, updated appliances, and numerous thoughtful improvements complement the home's exceptional condition, making this a truly turn-key property.
