With three full bathrooms, one half bath, and extensive closet space throughout, there's plenty of room for everyone.
Outdoor living is equally impressive, with multiple inviting spaces to relax and entertain. The covered front porch features recessed lighting, comfortable furnishings, and a Weber gas grill. A fully furnished brick patio includes a built-in stone BBQ grill, while the spacious rear deck offers additional furnished seating, a bar, and another Weber gas grill. Whether hosting summer gatherings, enjoying crisp autumn evenings, or simply taking in the mountain surroundings, these spaces extend the home's living areas beautifully into the outdoors.
