The first floor offers an open-plan great room, kitchen and dining room, all with hardwood floors and lots of windows bringing the outside in. A woodburning stove in the Great Room and a propane stove in the Dining Room add to the warmth and charm. A guest bedroom, full bath and laundry area finish off this main level. Upstairs is a master suite with private bath and separate area that could be an office or sitting room. The lower level offers a third bedroom or flex-room, and another full bath. Another finished room could have many uses and is currently used for storage. Finally, a large workshop provides plenty of space for mountain-toy storage. Outdoors enjoy the waterfall next to the covered deck, bask in the large hot-tub on an open deck, or enjoy the cool mountain air on two other decks that surround the house. There's also a shed for either more storage or other outdoor projects. This .74 acre property is comprised of six parcels, at least two could be sold and/or used for an additional homesite.
