Property Description

Tucked away on 8 private acres, this magical mountain retreat blends authentic farmhouse charm, thoughtful craftsmanship, and serene natural beauty. Private trails, a koi pond water feature, and long-range mountain views create a peaceful, artsy escape. The cedar-sided farmhouse features a wraparound porch and metal roof. Inside are vaulted beamed ceilings, hardwood floors, skylights, and walls of windows. The show stopping kitchen offers a massive island, quartz counters, Bertazzoni range, farmhouse sink, new appliances, pantry, and coffee station. A main-level primary suite with porch access and spa bath anchors the home. Upstairs bedrooms and bonus room add flexibility. A 3-car garage includes a workshop and studio apartment above. Decks, hot tub/lap pool, greenhouse, RV parking, and wood shop complete this private mountain sanctuary.
