In addition to the oversized two-car garage, the home also features a large covered carport area that provides excellent additional parking, covered storage, outdoor entertaining space, or the potential to creatively enclose or customize to fit your needs. The home features over 2,100 square feet with soaring ceilings, custom metal stair railing expansive south-facing windows, and an open-concept layout designed to capture natural light and maximize the mountain views. A wall of south-facing glass creates excellent passive solar gain during the winter months while filling the home with warmth and natural light year-round. The main level includes an open kitchen and living area with French doors leading outdoors, covered patio space ideal for summer evenings, and a spacious laundry/mud room or office area conveniently located off the garage. The flexible loft-style upper living spaces create multiple options for bedrooms, office space, studio use, bunk areas, or additional recreation space. Currently configured as a three-bedroom, two-bath home, buyers should note the bedroom spaces are non-conforming due to the absence of built-in closets; however, the rooms function well as sleeping quarters, guest accommodations, office space, or flex rooms depending on a buyer’s needs. This property offers exceptional opportunity for buyers looking to continue upgrading, enhancing and personalizing a home with strong architectural character and an incredible setting.

An additional adjoining 40-acre parcel with a second residence and improvements is also available, creating a rare opportunity to own a combined 80-acre mountain property.
