Charming hillside chalet tucked away on Chena Ridge with a view of the river and mountains beyond. Single owner home on an absolutely beautiful lot surrounded by trees and hardly a neighbor in sight. Most of the original rustic details are still visible, from the cedar shake roof to the beams and tongue and groove vaulted ceiling inside. On the ground floor, modifications were made a few years ago with the addition of a kitchenette and bathroom to have a stand alone MIL apartment and because the utilities are on that level, including the washer and dryer, there’s really no need to ever go upstairs! But go upstairs you must to fully appreciate the view, the southern facing deck, the vaulted ceiling, woodstove and remodeled kitchen. There are two small bedrooms and a full bathroom on the same second story. From there a set of stairs leads up to the upper primary bedroom with en suite. Flexbility is the name of the game here, the house has electric heat originally and the owner burned a fair share of wood to supplement, or burned a fair share of wood for the heat and supplemented with electricity depending on how you want to approach it, and with the addition of the Toyo heater downstairs you can decide how much oil, electricity and wood you would like to burn and in what proportion. The detached garage is also similarly heated with a wood stove and a Toyo and has done plenty of time as a wood shop when not filled with cars. Above the garage is a massive amount of dry storage and, quite frankly, there is a massive amount of dry storage below the garage, too.
