Spectacular High Country Mountain Retreat with Unmatched Privacy & Character

Escape to the beauty and tranquility of this completely renovated, approximately 2,900-square-foot mountain retreat. Built in 1976 and thoughtfully renovated and completely updated while preserving its timeless character, this exceptional 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers privacy, generous living spaces, and breathtaking panoramic mountain views. Set on a level, privately enveloped lot surrounded by mature trees and abundant wildlife, it provides the perfect setting for peaceful year-round living or a memorable mountain getaway.

Inside, warm hardwood floors, rich wood accents, tile in the kitchen and bathrooms, expansive new windows, and abundant natural light create an inviting atmosphere throughout. The impressive open-concept floor plan seamlessly connects the kitchen, dining, and living areas, making the home ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.

The inviting huge family room is a true showpiece, featuring vaulted ceilings, with exposed wood beams, and large windows and doors that showcase the surrounding mountain landscape. This beautiful family room also offers wood flooring, custom built-in cabinetry, and a beautiful stone built, wood burning fireplace, creating a warm and distinctive gathering space.

The spacious primary suite provides a peaceful private retreat with hardwood flooring, abundant natural light, and generous proportions. Two additional bedrooms offer comfortable accommodations for family and guests, while the oversized laundry room includes a built-in office area, providing a convenient space for working from home.
