Hidden away in the gated community of Wolf Mountain Estates, this 2-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom chalet offers privacy, comfort, and charm on nearly 3.5 wooded acres. A long driveway winds through a canopy of hardwoods and pines, creating a serene sense of arrival and leading to a generous parking area with no neighbors in sight. The home's south-facing orientation provides abundant natural light throughout the day. From the parking area, step onto the inviting upper-level front porch that wraps around two sides of the house. Inside, the spacious Great Room welcomes you with a vaulted ceiling, striking stone gas-log fireplace, and expansive tinted chalet windows that frame the treetops while maintaining energy efficiency. Two sets of sliding glass doors open to the upper-level deck, where you can enjoy forest views and a peekaboo mountain backdrop. The open kitchen is designed for both function and style, offering plentiful cabinet and counter space, stainless steel appliances, and an adjacent breakfast nook. Conveniently located on this level is a guest bedroom with a walk-in closet and full guest bathroom. Upstairs in the loft, the Master Suite features a vaulted ceiling, walk-in closet, and a private en suite bathroom, creating a true retreat. The finished lower level expands your living space with a recreation room that opens to a covered lower porch through two separate doors. This level also includes a half bathroom, laundry area with sink, and access to the single-car garage. With a brand-new roof installed in 2023, this chalet is ready for its next chapter, blending seclusion, comfort, and mountain living in one remarkable property.
