Want to feel as though you're on vacation - all year round? Just 9 miles from downtown, it's worlds away. If you're looking for something out of the ordinary, you're in for a treat. The total of 3744 sq ft comprises the main house (2592 sq ft - 3BD/2.5BA) and a separate guesthouse/studio (1152 sq ft - 1BR/1BA). The open kitchen, dining and living areas, a powder room and a large bedroom with attached full bath make up the main level of this rustic yet sleek, mountain-chic home. Stairs and a bridge take you up to another bedroom in an enclosed loft area. And the lower level brings you into an open theater/movie room, and the current master bedroom (which can easily be divided into two rooms should you prefer your master on the main level and/or need more bedrooms), plus a walk-in closet and bathroom. With three sources of heat - gas, wood and electric - you will not be caught in the cold. The four decks - totaling 753 sq ft - provide outdoor living rooms to enjoy the views from any direction at any time of day. From the back decks you can see the meadow and mountains and watch the kids glide down the zip-line from their tree house. After the glow of the sunset fades from the front porch, light a bonfire in the fire pit - especially fun in winter after a day snowshoeing or cross-country skiing from your front door. With National Forest right nearby, you can go for hours. The Barn includes a 2-car garage plus a separate carport/gear storage area, and a 2-story guesthouse with a kitchen and bathroom downstairs, and a huge 860 sq ft room upstairs, which can be set up with a bedroom and separate living space, or - with twin beds in every dormer - as a bunk house, or as an amazing art studio/gallery (yoga studio/craft room, etc). This apartment can also be a caretaker's quarters, if this is a second home/vacation retreat. Everything about this fabulous home is set up for fun, entertaining and housing all your toys. It can also be a wonderful place to get away from everything (and everyone). Best of both worlds.
