An absolute 10!! This completely renovated and thoughtfully appointed slice of WY heaven is a must see! Nestled in the woods and surrounded by majestic Aspen trees, this phenomenal property is surrounded by hiking trails, 3 golf courses and accessibility to three World Class fishing rivers; The Salt, The Snake and The Greys. Just 45 miles South West of Jackson Hole Wy and a hop skip and a jump to Grand Tetons/Yellowstone National Park, this Wyoming sanctuary is more than a home, it's an experience. Unwind on the spacious and tranquil back deck, next to your fire pit, enjoy dinner outside under the stars or relax in one of the hammocks nestled under the Aspen trees. Just being here feels like a perpetual vacation. For boaters and water enthusiasts- gorgeous Lake Palisades boat launch is just a short 12 minutes away. Restaurants, shopping and grocery stores just minutes away.
This designer decorated 6 bedroom, 4 bath (3 bedrooms upstairs with 2 bath) and 3 bedrooms 2 bath lower level) can absolutely be an amazing single family home, yet could also work for guest quarters or can be a completely separate entity as a duplex/condo. As an investment property, this unique layout has a variety of options ( it also has a current to date rental history of extremely happy guests).
The top floor is its own separate entity, if desired and has a private entrance. This home is zoned as recreation, with no CC&Rs or HOA-so you are free to do what you want.
This home has undergone major renovations, down to bare bones, new walls, new plumbing, electrical, electric fireplace and wood burning stove are now in place for heating capability as well as cove heaters on both floors, & brand new landscaping and irrigation system. A top of the line water softener and water heater have recently been added, which is a major bonus in this area. Completely new bathrooms, including ensuite with the style of Wyoming Farmhouse barn doors. The back porch/deck area is completely new and oh so inviting.
Entering this home will absolutely fill all of your senses and invoke the want to stay.
Don't miss out on seeing this captivating retreat and experience the magic for yourself.
This beautiful home also has an active Airbnb.com and we also have up to date rental history, upon request. This is THEE perfect spot for both summer and winter in Star Valley -as well as the very lax constraints on what you want to do there (due to the Recreation Zoning) This can be a home, a str, you can possibly add other structrure to make multiple buildings on this lot. Quite a bit of room available to do what you choose.
