Set on a uniquely positioned homesite with breathtaking long-range mountain views, this beautifully updated and expanded 4-bedroom, 4-bath home in Mountain Air offers a rare combination of privacy and connection to the surrounding landscape. With no homes directly above, below, or on one side, the property enjoys a level of seclusion generally reserved for the mountain’s custom home neighborhoods. The home’s square footage exceeds most other Neighborhood Homes, creating generous living space rarely found in this setting. It has been thoughtfully enhanced with the addition of a welcoming covered front porch, a dining room, and a pool room/library, along with a side deck perfectly positioned to capture the cool mountain breezes of summer. The fully remodeled kitchen serves as the heart of the home, featuring custom alder cabinetry, remarkable marble countertops whose flowing greens and warm browns echo the branches and forest beyond, and GE Profile appliances approximately 1.5 years old. A water feature crafted from the same marble as the countertops enhances the natural flow of the space, cultivating a tranquil and welcoming atmosphere. Heritage maple engineered hardwood flooring runs throughout the main living areas, complemented by custom blinds and nature-inspired Tiffany lighting.
Distinctive artisan details include a custom mountain laurel stair railing, a handcrafted maple mantelpiece selected specifically for the space and carefully cured and crafted over the course of a year, new alder interior and exterior doors, and custom built-ins in both the bedroom and den. Upstairs, recent updates include new carpet, a new mini-split system, and a completely remodeled bathroom.
The property has also benefited from recent tree trimming to further open and highlight the expansive long-range views, enhancing both the setting and natural light. Additional practical features include under-house golf cart storage, a fenced dog-potty yard, and built-in overhead exterior storage that blends seamlessly with the home’s structure, adding convenience to everyday mountain living. With its coveted top-of-the-mountain location, thoughtful renovations, generous living space, and unforgettable mountain views, this home offers a truly inviting mountain lifestyle in one of the community’s most desirable settings. ***Seller offers $10k toward club membership with an acceptable Offer***
