'Birdhouse', is a fanciful, multi-faceted cottage sequestered within a lush mountain setting of stone walls, with meandering walkways, abundant flowers, and native shrubbery. Lofty hardwoods provide a canopy of privacy on three sides of the site, with an expansive panorama unfolding to the south. A sanctuary where birds are catered to and folks are pampered. Now, that's all delightful, but pass through the cozy foyer, and one is struck by sunshine and elegance. The space is open but defined by a clever combination of country-cottage-casual enriched by a good dose of sophistication. A classic stairway splits at an intermediary landing, providing access to a guest suite with a den, bedroom, and bathroom. From the landing, the stairway continues to the primary bedroom suite at the top. The main level, expanded by the broad veranda, and the top suite enjoy the splendid vista. The home can be bought fully furnished. Double lot! 1Gbps internet and a 6-minute drive to downtown.
