Escape to the mountains with this charming 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom chalet nestled on nearly 2 private wooded acres. With a gravel driveway that leads you through the trees to a spacious parking area, this home offers both seclusion and STUNNING LONG-RANGE MOUNTAIN VIEWS you'll never tire of. You will feel a world away from the hustle and bustle of it all. Step onto the front porch and into a bright and inviting kitchen with white appliances, abundant cabinet and counter space, and a cozy dining area with two oversized windows perfectly framing the panoramic views. Adjacent to the kitchen, the vaulted-ceiling living room features rich wood floors, a stone-surround wood-burning stove for those chilly evenings, and chalet windows that flood the space with light. Double sliding doors open up to the spacious full-length deck, with steps down to the yard. Down the hall, you'll find two comfortable bedrooms - one with a walk-in closet, a full bathroom with a beautifully tiled low-step shower, and a convenient hallway laundry area. Head upstairs to the loft where mountain views await through the high chalet windows, along with a private full bathroom and more of that inviting cabin feel. The lower level of the home offers flexibility with a partially finished area complete with shelves and workspace. There's also an expansive unfinished space with endless possibilities for use. Both areas have direct access to the lower covered porch. An outbuilding provides additional space, and the wooded lot ensures privacy in every season. This chalet has it all—views, space, charm, and the peaceful mountain lifestyle you've been dreaming of.
