This mountaintop retreat spans 49.50 private acres and offers a rare blend of seclusion, recreation, and comfortable cabin living. The property features a 2‑bedroom, 1.5‑bath home with 2,192 finished square feet designed for relaxed, year‑round enjoyment. The interior showcases warm natural wood, an open living area filled with sunlight, a cozy wood‑burning fireplace, and modern mini‑split systems to keep the space comfortable in every season. Whether you’re unwinding after a day outdoors or hosting weekend guests, the layout feels inviting and effortless. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the network of private trails, abundant wildlife, and direct access to nearby mountain biking routes—including the well‑known Beer Tap stop.
