This is the ultimate mountain house and just what you've been looking for! It's one of those feel good homes that will steal your heart the minute you walk in, and it must be seen to be appreciated. Immaculate year round or vacation retreat in Whisper Lake, and so convenient to shopping, restaurants and everything mountain. Log home has just had a new roof, new stain outside and many other improvements, such as an enclosed crawl space for a nice, dry environment and improved drainage. Super, open concept floor plan allows for guest and host interaction throughout party time and this home has all the goodies, including wood floors and granite counters in kitchen. Soaring ceilings add to the feeling of space. Plenty of room for all kinds of activities with family or friends. Huddle up to the stone-faced fireplace on chilly evenings. Beautifully finished, and lovely setting with mountain views. Plenty of room for the whole clan, with extra living space and full bath in the lower level. Would make a great TV room, game room, bunk room or any combination of the three! Mountain views year round can be made even better with selective trimming. This home would also make a great vacation rental. Priced to sell. Sapphire Valley amenities are included with purchase, so you can golf, play tennis, swim, get fit, hike, canoe and much more.
