Amazing Peaks/BRM views from this 2017 farmhouse located on your own 19 acres that pictures cannot do justice. This 5 bedroom 3 bath home was built specifically for the owners and their family. Attention was put to every detail and designed in a perfect setting with a beautiful backdrop. Lot has a spring and would be great for horses. The rocking chair front porch, covered back porch with fan, and deck will keep you outside. Walking in the front door into the foyer with maple floors, an office to right with built in cabinets, formal dining to the left and then move into the stunning kitchen/living room where the family gathers. Huge island with quartz counter tops, extra seating, and farmhouse sink. Stainless steel appliances include a double oven and fridge large enough for any event. Stacked stone fireplace, Hardie exterior, tile showers, crown molding, large master with mountain views. The unfinished basement is perfect for expansion or storage.
