Happy Trails is the ideal choice for a primary residence, a seasonal getaway, or a high-performing short-term rental investment. The main level serves as the heart of the home, featuring an expansive open-concept living area that emphasizes comfort and connection. A rich leather sofa and inviting armchairs are perfectly positioned around a stately gas fireplace. Large windows frame the surrounding wilderness, bringing the beauty of the outdoors inside. Culinary enthusiasts will find themselves at home in the gourmet kitchen, which has been thoughtfully updated with premium stainless steel appliances and sleek granite countertops. The oversized island provides ample prep space and features additional bar seating for casual breakfasts or evening cocktails.
