Tucked away in a gated community, this 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom cedar-sided chalet is on almost one acre, offering privacy, convenience, and plenty of outdoor appeal. A flowing CREEK runs along the back of the property, adding a soothing natural backdrop to the wooded setting. Flowering trees and shrubs enhance the yard, while paved neighborhood roads lead all the way to the home and a concrete driveway provides easy year-round access. Park in the driveway or in the oversized detached garage. Step onto the full-length porch that wraps around three sides of the chalet and inside to the bright and open Great Room with beautiful wood floors, a vaulted ceiling, and a cozy gas-log fireplace. The adjoining kitchen has lots of cabinets and counter space, stainless steel appliances, a pantry, and a convenient breakfast area. A glass door provides direct access to the screened back porch, making indoor-outdoor living effortless.
The main level also includes a comfortable guest bedroom with a walk-in closet, a full guest bathroom, and a laundry closet. Upstairs in the loft is a spacious and private Master Suite complete with its own walk-in closet and full en suite bathroom with a step-in shower. Outside, a walkway and ramp connect the house to the huge detached two-car garage, designed to complement the chalet with matching exterior siding. The garage has a concrete floor and two roll-up doors, providing excellent space for vehicles, recreational equipment, workshop needs, or storage. A separate shed adds even more utility. With its scenic creekside setting, expansive porches, spacious garage, and welcoming chalet design, this property is an ideal mountain home just waiting for you.
