The split-bedroom layout offers privacy, with the primary suite situated on one side of the home. The spacious owner's retreat features two walk-in closets and an ensuite bath complete with double vanities, a Jacuzzi tub, and separate shower. On the opposite side of the home, two guest bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath. A conveniently located laundry room and half bath are just off the kitchen.The sunroom, accented by attractive brick flooring, creates the perfect space for a reading room, home office, or indoor garden retreat. Downstairs, the full basement provides abundant storage, a garage area, a full bath with shower, and excellent potential for future expansion. Additional features include a roof installed within the last 7–10 years, a propane furnace supplemented by a wood furnace, 6 inch commercial gutters installed, and a whole-house generator for added peace of mind during power outages. With no restrictions, quality construction, mountain views, and easy access to area amenities and recreation, this property is an excellent choice for a full-time residence, mountain getaway, or retirement home.
