Custom, unique east hillside home for sale on fantastic 3.5-acre lot. The owner/builder poured his heart into finishing this house over the last few years and it shows. There is an incredible amount of real wood tongue and groove paneling throughout the interior walls and vaulted ceiling and it is complemented by metal accents which gives a simultaneous rustic and modern feel. The main level is open and warm with a huge kitchen (brand new base cabinets, counters and sink on order) that transitions to a dining area and living room. The living areas are defined by a custom metal hearth with a zero-clearance woodstove that is sculptural and functional. On the main living area is a powder room so guests, and you! can use the facilities without going up or down the stairs. On the upper living area are three bedrooms and a full bathroom and a loft that is a perfect office or library. The loft is open to the living area below and has huge windows to enjoy the hillside view. The lower level has a one car garage, another full bathroom and a generous flex space that can be storage, a mud room or potentially another bedroom away from the hustle and bustle of the rest of the house. Outside there is a pull through driveway, mature landscaping and a huge deck. The exterior of the home has been finished with a metal roof and siding and shouldn’t need maintenance for many years to come. Yes, there is a well and no water softener wanted or needed!
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
