About this home

Step into your dream home: a beautifully crafted log retreat with breathtaking, panoramic views of distant mountain ranges, just 10-15 minutes from schools, shopping, hospitals, and all the essentials. Arriving via the paved drive, you are welcomed by a wide, inviting front porch where rocking chairs beckon you to sit and savor the quiet forested view. Step through the wooded entry foyer with its stone floor and discover a grand great room where sweeping mountain and sky views greet you. The impressive stone fireplace, crowned with a hand-hewn mantle, rises dramatically to the second level. Rich maple floors flow throughout the first floor, leading you to a spacious kitchen adorned with custom black walnut cabinetry, a convenient pull-out pantry, double stainless-steel sinks, gleaming granite countertops, and a stylish tiled backsplash. The main-level primary suite opens directly onto the spacious screened porch. Inside, you will find soaring wood-beamed ceilings, a skylight that fills the room with natural light, a double vanity with mirrored medicine cabinets, a luxurious soaking tub, and a brand-new marbled shower. The tiled bath suite connects to a generous walk-in closet with a convenient laundry room nearby. Upstairs, two guest rooms each offer the privacy of their own en-suite baths. The inviting loft with maple floors and with its expansive windows, frames mountain vistas and creates a perfect nook for reading or quiet reflection. On the lower level, a spacious family room with a cozy fireplace awaits, alongside an office, a bonus room, and a bath, all with easy access to the double garage. Step out onto the lower deck from either the family room or bonus room to enjoy the fresh mountain air. Some furnishings may be negotiated separately. This beautiful mountain paradise has been well maintained. The primary shower was installed last year, and the main level heat pump is less than 2 years old. The water heater was recently replaced, and the property has close access to Hwy 70, Hwy 18 and I-40.
