This beautifully designed home offers over 4, 300 square feet of developed living space, featuring soaring vaulted ceilings, rustic wide-plank flooring, rough-cut timber beams, warm cedar ceilings, and skylights that flood the home with natural light. A stunning wrap-around timber deck creates the perfect place to relax and take in the surrounding beauty. Originally built in 1978, the home was EXTENSIVELY EXPANDED in 2006 with the addition of a second storey and an enlarged main-floor primary suite, creating a spacious and thoughtfully designed layout. The chef-inspired kitchen features stone countertops and opens to the main living and dining areas where large windows frame beautiful mountain views. A cozy wood stove adds warmth and character to the dining space, while a separate sitting area with a wood-burning fireplace creates a cozy retreat. The large main-floor primary suite is a true sanctuary, offering direct access to the rear deck and a luxurious five-piece ensuite with soaring windows and nature views. An elegant staircase leads to the upper level to two expansive bedrooms, each showcasing vaulted ceilings, expansive windows and views, and a shared spa-like 5-pc bath, providing comfortable space for family or guests. The fully developed lower level features yet another sprawling bedroom, a full bathroom, den, and gym area, offering additional flexibility for guests, recreation, or working from home. You can access the attached, oversized double garage from here. The garage and most of the home have extensive in-floor radiant heat.
