Custom built chalet in Big Trees Village featuring vaulted ceiling and a tall wall of windows that show off the forest and sky. Built just 19 years ago by local builder Vern Peterson, this chalet has tons of knotty pine finishes and open beam construction for that mountain cabin feel we all love! It's kept warm by central heat with wi-fi thermostat and a wood burning stove. Enjoy the added convenience of a two-car garage, hot tub and backup generator. Tucked away on .40 acre, on a super quiet street near the edge of open forest and Big Trees State Park. Just 6 miles to the Stanislaus River, 8 miles to White Pines Lake, and 26 miles to Bear Valley Mountain Resort. Also less than 30 miles away are Lake Alpine, New Spicer Reservoir, Utica & Union Reservoirs. Come purchase your own private place in the wonderful Stanislaus National Forest. Any/all offers to be reviewed Tuesday, 10/6 at 10am.
