    What's special

    This large 5-bedroom, 4 bath mountain retreat has been recently renovated utilizing the highest levels of materials and craftsmanship. Brazilian Cherry hardwood floors thruout the main house, in floor heated tile bathroom floors, granite vanity and kitchen counter tops; and a master bath closet to die for; everything is top notch in this house! It is a "move in ready" home situated in a private, yet not isolated, setting about 5 minutes from downtown West Jefferson. Home is in excellent condition with no deferred or pending maintenance issues. Mechanicals are mostly new, including a tankless Rinnai water heater. House features large front and rear decks for relaxing or entertaining. The decks and the house exterior were stained in 2018. There is ample storage space in the walk-up attic and attached 2.5 car garage which has 220V power. Driveway was just paved in 2019. The home was built in 2005 and has 4,429 square feet of living space, all situated on a .75-acre lot. Home has a three bedroom septic permit. The first floor is a 2-bedroom, 1 bath separate entrance apartment which has been successfully generating AirBNB revenue for years. Based on current bookings, revenue generated in 2019 will be well over $16,000; enough to cover the majority of a monthly mortgage payment. Keep it in the AirBNB program or use the apartment for personal use. Most apartment furnishings stay.
