In the desirable community of Whisper Lake, this one-level home enjoys mountain views from the back deck and a short walk to the Whisper Lake common area, perfect for picnicking, fishing, or taking the canoe out on the lake! A large circular driveway and beautifully landscaped entrance provide great curb appeal. The covered rocking chair front porch is nice for rainy days and also has a gate for pets. Upgrades include wood floors throughout this cozy mountain home, as well as newly installed granite counter tops in the kitchen and baths. The living room features a stone, wood-burning fireplace and is open to the dining area and kitchen. Roast s'mores at the fire pit in the backyard on a cool mountain evening. The high crawl space has a separate entrance and provides tons of storage space. The view can be improved with tree-trimming (requires HOA approval). The red Lil' Whisper canoe on the rack at the common area, along with the paddles and cushions, are included with the purchase of this home. Ownership comes with Sapphire Valley Resort amenities including golf, tennis, fitness center, indoor/outdoor swimming pools, community center, park/playground, ski slope, zip line and deeded access to Lake Fairfield.
