Trails nearby wind through the forest and connect all the way back to the main road, perfect for hikes and quiet exploration. This property also includes three dedicated parking spaces, a rare and valuable amenity in this tranquil mountain setting. Inside, French doors welcome you into a warm, open-concept interior featuring a cozy great room, a quaint kitchen with an informal dining area, and a family room accented by a beautiful steel corner fireplace.
