Down a quiet country road, where mountains rise in every direction and a gentle stream whispers nearby, you’ll find this charming 2-bedroom, 2-bath farmhouse. All on one level, it offers ease of living with a level, fenced yard—perfect for pets, play, or your dream garden. Inside, the updated kitchen with quartz counters sets the stage for home-cooked meals and gatherings. A cozy porch invites you to slow down and take in the mountain views, morning coffee in hand. Picture peonies in spring, dahlias and zinnias bursting with color through summer, and a space that feels like your own private homestead. The oversized detached three-car garage doubles as a workshop, while a separate she-shed invites creativity or quiet retreat. Thoughtfully designed and just the right size, this home blends warmth, function, and privacy—ready to welcome its next chapter.
