Have you yearned to be quiet, breathe deep…commune with your surroundings…sit on your southern-style covered porch and watch the snow fall? Or look down at your own private forest while barbecuing your dinner on your rear deck, watching deer, bobcats, even bears meander through the forest? You can feel the hospitality of the house and neighborhood from the minute you drive up. There’s ample parking with a 3 car garage and covered carport as well, with level access into the home as well. You enter into an airy living room with soaring vaulted ceiling and a center point floor to ceiling fireplace with raised hearth, made to be sat on for reading an exciting book. You can almost see the stockings hung on the mantle! Gorgeous newer hardwood floors add warmth to most of the main floor. A formal dining room is somewhat open to the living room on one side and the kitchen on the other. The kitchen is oozing with warmth. A large island holds the 5 burner Jenn-Aire gas cooktop with downdraft. There are two built-in electric Jenn-Aire ovens for those big holiday meals and a huge Jenn-Aire refrigerator. The laundry is conveniently located on the main floor as well as a charming powder bath. Upstairs is a true primary retreat with small loft area perfect for a home office or those morning yoga stretches. The bedroom has newer carpet, a romantic fireplace and spacious ensuite bath with walk-in shower and separate tub. On the lowest level you’ll find a cozy den/TV room perfect for cuddling up on a sofa with your popcorn and watching movies. 3 more spacious bedrooms and another full bath take up the rest of the lower level. There are spacious decks on all three levels that look over your private 1+ acre forest. Another bonus space is on this level as well a partially finished 800 sq ft space with 2 double doors to do with whatever you can dream of…another full bath and bedroom, a granny suite? An ADU perhaps? A dream workshop, a gym? There’s plumbing available, so dream away! Out one side of this bonus space is the covered parking/carport accessed by a long driveway. There’s a Generac generator for a pouter outage. This house has it all, ready for graceful mountain living and entertaining.
