About this home

Hidden away on nearly an acre of wooded privacy, this well-maintained cedar-sided chalet offers the perfect blend of rustic warmth and modern comfort. With 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a detached single-car garage plus an additional outbuilding, this fully furnished home is ready for its new family. The home is set back in a quiet, peaceful setting, with parking right at the front steps for convenience. A welcoming porch and expansive deck wrap around two sides of the house, providing plenty of space to relax outdoors. From the front deck, enjoy long-range mountain views that create a breathtaking backdrop year-round. Step inside to the open Great Room, where chalet windows flood the space with natural light. The vaulted tongue-and-groove wood ceiling and hardwood floors add to the warm, rustic charm, while a gas-log fireplace offers cozy ambiance. Double doors lead directly to the front deck, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living. The kitchen sits just off the Great Room and offers lots of cabinet and counter space, an island for extra prep and seating, and matching white appliances. Beyond the kitchen, you'll find a spacious guest bedroom, a full guest bathroom, and a laundry area with built-in shelving. Upstairs, the loft-level Master Suite overlooks the Great Room below. The rich wood flooring and vaulted ceilings continue here, and includes a walk-in closet and a private en suite bathroom. Additional highlights include Fiber Optic internet for reliable connectivity, making it easy to work remotely or stream from this mountain haven. With its blend of privacy, character, and modern convenience, this chalet is a rare find. Come tour this beauty and make it yours today!
