    Longing for a mountain hideaway where deer wander through your yard and peaceful mornings begin with birdsong? This enchanting A-frame cottage is tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on a highly sought-after, mostly flat 1-acre lot, offering a rare combination of privacy, usable outdoor space, and natural beauty. Inside, warmth greets you at every turn. A breathtaking two-story stone fireplace anchors the great room, soaring to meet dramatic vaulted ceilings and creating the perfect gathering place for cozy evenings. Walls of windows flood the home with natural light while framing tranquil woodland views, bringing the outdoors in year-round. The updated kitchen and refreshed bathrooms blend rustic character with modern comfort, creating a home that is both inviting and functional. The main level features two comfortable bedrooms and a full bathroom, while upstairs you'll find a private primary suite with its own full bath and a versatile loft overlooking the great room. Whether you envision a home office, family room, reading nook, homeschool space, or guest retreat, this flexible area adapts beautifully to your lifestyle. Walk-in closets provide excellent storage, while the full basement offers even more space with a one-car garage, generous storage areas, and a spacious laundry room. Step outside to the true highlight of the property—more than 700 square feet of decking designed for enjoying every season. Sip your morning coffee as wildlife passes by, host family cookouts, or unwind in the evening surrounded by the peaceful sights and sounds of nature. The expansive, mostly level yard offers endless possibilities for gardening, recreation, or simply enjoying the serenity of your own private mountain retreat. Despite its secluded setting, you'll enjoy the best of both worlds with restaurants, grocery shopping, parks, and everyday conveniences just five minutes away. The home's iconic A-frame architecture, peaceful setting, generous outdoor living space, and convenient location also make it an excellent opportunity for buyers seeking a vacation home or a potentially income-producing short-term rental.

Come experience this one-of-a-kind woodland retreat before someone else claims the hammock spot.
