Offering year-round access, direct National Forest adjacency, and unmatched fly fishing opportunities right outside your door, this is a rare blend of wilderness and refined living. Crafted in a Mountain Modern style, the home spans 4,686 square feet across three levels, designed to embrace natural light, open space, and breathtaking views. The main floor features an open-concept living area with vaulted ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, and oversized windows that frame the surrounding peaks and seasonal foliage. The kitchen combines custom wood cabinetry with high-end appliances and a generous island that anchors the space for gathering and entertaining. Just off the dining area, a fully enclosed, four-season porch with a gas fireplace and propane heater invites year-round enjoyment.
