About this home

Fantastic for a full time residence or second home, with 2 bedrooms, 2 baths and a bonus room. It exudes quintessential, mountain cabin ambience, from the stone fireplace inside to the lovely mountain view and the covered wraparound deck to enjoy it from. Other features include: tongue and groove cathedral ceilings, lots of natural light, large master suite with sitting room, lots of closet space, easy year round access with plenty of parking, and double detached garage. Call to schedule your showing today!! This property will more than likely get multiple offers quickly, that's the state of our market. If you're a serious buyer, it would behoove you to bring your highest and best offer from the start as the seller will be inundated with offers and deciding which to work with. We will not be accepting FHA, VA or USDA loans because they tend to be more problematic.
