This charming mountain cabin has been turned into a lovely family home. It offers a seamless blend of simplicity, comfort, and adventure. Positioned next to the scenic national forest there are endless hikes and exploration. The full home renovation and craftsmanship throughout bring the home up to date while keeping its mountain magic. This home boasts three bedroom plus an office and a large, sprawling bathroom. Every corner of this home has been redone. When walking into the main entrance you'll be greeted with a beautiful view of the valley below. Three large windows bring an exuberance of light and warmth to the cathedral style room. On cooler nights you can utilize the Vermont Castings wood burning stove. Just off to your left will be the first two bedrooms one with a custom-made cedar closet. As you take your journey down the stairs that have been handcrafted meticulously to match the brand-new laminate floor on the upstairs you'll walk into the bright and beautifully done kitchen with stainless steel appliances and granite counter tops. As you admire the custom cabinetry in the kitchen you will notice the open floor plan leading into a large family room offering plenty of space. Connected to the family room is a well-lit sunroom perfect for a dining area or as a plant haven. Just off the family room there is an additional bedroom with a Hearthstone wood stove to keep all the chilly nights at bay creating a relaxing and cozy space to rest your head. Enjoy the fresh mountain air on the private deck with endless views. This master bedroom is connected to the fully renovated bathroom gleaming with design and practicality. This is a must-see home that is turnkey and ready for anyone to fully enjoy! The property also has a spacious shed that offers practical storage for outdoor gear.
