Even the pocket style doors were well thought out. It's all in the small details! The heart of the home is the open-concept main level, where the kitchen flows seamlessly into the living area. It's hard to ignore the beauty of the soaring vaulted ceilings expertly crafted with wood beams & finishes with a gas log fireplace! Private dining room for special occasions is located off of the kitchen- I recommend standing in this space & gazing out the windows, take it all in.

Laundry is located on this level- this is not your ordinary laundry room! Ample storage & shelving PLUS access to a naturally cooled wine closet! But here's where it gets interesting: slide open those glass doors to the screened porch & suddenly your indoor space expands into nature itself. On pleasant days, the owners love to keep their windows open, filling their home with fresh mountain air. The outdoor experience, this isn't just about the house– it's about the lifestyle. Your outdoor sanctuary includes: an oversized screened porch (your new favorite room), covered patio area that is currently being used as a potting/gardening 'shed' & a lovely fire pit! Deck accessible on the main level! The custom detached garage accommodates 2 vehicles, with additional driveway parking if needed. Need a bonus space? Above the garage is approx 500 sq ft of finished space- currently being used as an art studio & home gym. Make this extra space fit your personal needs!
