Seclusion defines this charming three-story chalet, nestled on a tranquil .82-acre parcel with a forest view on a quiet cul-de-sac. Adding to its charm is a dry creek bed, which once featured a flowing water element with a small pond. The purchase price includes a vacant Blue Lake Springs parcel, providing the future owner access to private amenities such as lakes, a pool, and a homeowner's restaurant. A massive party deck and patio were installed in 2011. Recent improvements include a new roof, interior paint, carpet, and laminate, all completed in June 2024. The main level features two bedrooms, a full bath, an open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area, and a cozy TV room or study. The architecture is striking, with vaulted open beam ceilings and cathedral windows. An open loft serves as the primary suite, complete with a bath and a small desk area, perfect for enjoying the view while working on emails. The lower level boasts a fantastic recreation room with 12' ceilings, open beams, vintage Incense Pecky-Cedar wood wall treatment, and a wine cellar. Adjacent to this space is a large shaded concrete patio. An interesting detail is that both the central heating system and the water heater are powered by diesel. Parking is convenient, with three gated driveways allowing several cars to park independently. A small carport provides covered storage for firewood. Because the Blue Lake lot is included, the dues are $780 per year, while the home, located in Meadowmont Village, incurs dues of $30 per year. Pest and septic clearances are also available.
