Description

Mountain luxury at its finest, where timeless architecture and thoughtful design come together in every detail. Seamless indoor-outdoor living creates an exceptional setting for both everyday life and effortless entertaining. High ceilings, expansive windows, and 8 foot doors and 10 foot ceilings on the main level enhance the sense of space and light, while shiplap accents add warmth and classic mountain character. A high efficiency wood-burning fireplace anchors the main living area, offering both comfort and charm.

The screened-in porch extends the living space outdoors and features a wood-burning fireplace with a gas starter and infrared ceiling heaters —perfect for year-round enjoyment in the mountain air.

The main residence offers 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, complemented by a private basement apartment with its own entrance, full kitchen, living area, bedroom, and bath—ideal for guests or extended stays. An additional flex space includes a workout room and an unfinished covered outdoor area already plumbed for a future hot tub and sauna.

A true architectural highlight, the staircase—crafted from reclaimed wood from a historic tobacco factory—adds a striking and meaningful design element.

The multi-level garage structure is exceptional, featuring a lower-level workshop with oversized garage door, main-level garage, and an upper-level office with deck and large pull-up door. The top level, with its own entrance, is currently used as an Airbnb-style suite, offering a spacious living area, sleeping space, and kitchenette.

Outdoors, a large firepit invites gathering under the stars, surrounded by a wooded setting with multiple cleared vantage points showcasing stunning, year-round views.

A rare blend of luxury, versatility, and mountain lifestyle—this property is truly one of a kind.
