Picture yourself on a private deck, caressed by the cool mountain breeze and overlooking a bold year-round creek, listening to the water cascading over boulders. Honey bees pollinating the apple trees, blueberry bushes, flowers, and the raised-bed organic garden overflowing with vibrant bounty, all enhance your sense of well-being. Enjoy quiet rhythms of a mountain day: your horse contentedly grazing in the pasture, your cat lazily sunning atop the newly-built retaining wall, and a symphony of peepers and grandfather frogs at home around the flower-wreathed pond. This charming, peaceful property of nearly six acres, and so much more, could be yours!
Approaching the home, flower gardens—and even an herb garden—greet you as you enter. This unique home—and a 20x24 large two-story office, workshop, and studio space—are protected for years to come with new architectural shingle roofing. Throughout this amazing property, you’ll find a small stable, with attached guest quarters, a woodshed, hay shed, and a run-in shed, completing the collection of outbuildings.
With over two thousand square feet of living space spanning two levels, the home is spacious and cozy all at once. Entering and moving through the roomy kitchen, complete with pantry, a beautiful mural catches your eye from the adjacent living room, highlighting again the character and charm of this unique home. A pair of large glass living room doors allow for gorgeous sunset views, and a wood stove keeps everything toasty against the winter chill. The primary bedroom & adjacent bath complete the main level.
Moving downstairs, a stunning custom-built masonry heater dominates the den and provides the ability to heat the entire home with wood, even on the coldest of winter days. Electric heat is also available. This level includes an office space, bedroom with attached bath, laundry, storage space, and a spectacular giant soaking tub, just because.
Whether you’re looking for a year-round mini farm, a summer home, or weekend getaways, don’t miss this opportunity! All that’s missing is you!
