Mountain living feels effortless in this chalet-style retreat, where warm wood details, branch frontage, and flexible living space create the kind of home buyers hope to find but rarely do. Fresh exterior paint, a metal roof, paved road access, asphalt drive, attached carport, detached double garage with finished storage space, fiber optics, and a generator add everyday confidence, while cathedral wood ceilings, wood floors, a wood-burning fireplace, and a spacious kitchen with island and double oven make the main level feel inviting and practical. The upstairs primary suite offers privacy with a walk-in closet and tiled shower, while the finished basement expands the possibilities with a family room, second kitchen, bar with mini fridge, bonus room, bath, and wood stove. Enjoy the deck, porch, patio, and firepit after a day exploring Murphy's River Walk, Piney Knob Trail, downtown shops, and nearby mountain recreation.
