Nestled in a serene forested setting, this beautifully crafted two-story mountain home, built in 2005, blends rustic charm with modern elegance. The rich wood exterior frames a spacious, tree-lined lot and an attached two-car garage. Inside, you’re welcomed by a warm and inviting living room with a fireplace, along with a dining area just off the kitchen featuring wood cabinetry and granite countertops. A convenient in-cabinet laundry area is located in the powder bath, complete with a built-in washer and dryer and additional cabinetry for ample storage. The bathrooms are finished with elegant ceramic tile, while the ground floor showcases attractive slate-look flooring. Upstairs, the second story is highlighted by knotty pine wood slat ceilings and skylights that bring in an abundance of natural light. Step out onto the second-floor wood deck balcony and take in peaceful views of the surrounding forest just beyond the backyard. Offering fedrooms, two and a half baths, and over 2,000 square feet of living space, this home provides both comfort and functionality. The backyard is a true retreat, featuring a beautifully landscaped stone creek and waterfall constructed with river rock, all set against a tranquil forest backdrop.
