Just under 3,000 square feet, this home features 3 bedrooms with bonus spaces and plenty of office spots, loads of natural light, massive wood beam accents and handsome charm.

A large primary suite or guest quarters on this level, complete with it’s own office or walk in closet and separate entrance and private deck. Head to the mid level and find two more bedroom suites each with private baths. The third level of the home hosts a sweet hideaway perfect for enjoying the mountain views and would make an enchanting office or reading nook. The outdoor entertaining area features a large deck with plenty of space to enjoy the great outdoors. The detached two-car garage features an art studio or bonus room with 3/4 bath above which would make the perfect home office, game room, gym, or guest space. Large dog area enclosed with chain link fencing, plenty of space to park your RV/camper, recently fire-mitigated, and sheds for extra storage.
