Some mountain homes have views. Some have updates. This one has all that, plus a rare, tucked-away mountain-retreat feeling: warm, private, full of character, and impossible to duplicate. With a rare three-suite layout, expansive multi-level decks, a hot tub-ready deck, and proven rental history, this is the kind of property buyers remember long after they leave the driveway. Inside, the open living, dining, and kitchen area feels warm, elevated, and inviting. Natural light pours into the main living space, while the vaulted wood ceiling creates instant character and drama. The kitchen offers a large center island, updated appliances, a wine cooler, and a comfortable cabin-modern feel that works beautifully for everyday living, weekend escapes, or hosting guests. New flooring throughout and fresh interior paint give the home a clean, move-in-ready finish while preserving the rustic charm buyers come to the mountains to find. The bedroom layout is a true standout. With 3 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, each bedroom has its own bathroom suite, creating a rare design that lives much like three private primary bedrooms. Whether used for guests, extended stays, shared ownership, or rental use, this layout gives everyone their own sense of comfort and privacy. The lower level and heated garage add even more flexibility, with space for recreation, storage, hobbies, workshop needs, or overflow use. The storage room off the garage includes 220-volt outlets throughout, offering excellent function for tools, equipment, or creative projects. One of the home’s most unforgettable features is found on the lower level, where the structure is uniquely built around a natural mountain boulder, a one-of-a-kind detail that gives the home true mountain character and a story buyers will not forget. Outdoor living is where this property really shines. Expansive deck space across multiple levels creates room for dining, relaxing, entertaining, morning coffee, evening wine, and quiet moments surrounded by the trees. The lower deck includes a drain and spigot and is reinforced for a hot tub, giving the next owner the option to create a spa-like mountain escape. The grill is connected to a plumbed-in gas line, making outdoor cooking easy and convenient. Thoughtful improvements have already been completed, including fresh exterior paint, new gutters during the seller’s ownership, renewed decks, an engineered front deck, engineered helical piers installed to protect the foundation, updated heating components, remodeled/updated bathrooms, updated kitchen appliances, a water booster pump and filter, and a security/alarm camera system that also controls the heating and air. For buyers seeking flexibility, the home also offers income potential. It has a history as a successful short-term rental and is currently leased under a transferable six-month lease. A buyer may continue with immediate rental income, or the lease may be dissolved so the home can be available for immediate occupancy at closing. Whether used as a full-time residence, second home, or income-producing mountain getaway, this property brings together the pieces buyers hope to find but rarely get in one place: privacy, character, outdoor living, thoughtful updates, flexible use, and proven rental history. It is warm, functional, income-capable, and full of mountain character, the kind of retreat that does not feel like everything else on the market.
