    What's special

    Ready to feel like you're traveling to the Swiss Alps every time you pull into your driveway? Discover your private getaway in this one-of-a-kind A-frame home tucked away on nearly an acre, this architectural gem invites you to live boldly and breathe deeply. Step into a soaring living room with dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows and gleaming hardwood floors that draw the outside in. Whether you're curled up by the fire or watching snow fall through the towering glass, every day feels like a mountain escape. With 3+ bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and creative bonus spaces throughout, there's room here for both rest and adventure—work remotely with a view, create an art studio in the loft, or host weekend guests who won't want to leave. The sleeping loft features a 3/4 bath and a private balcony overlooking the tranquil setting. Cozy up next to the fireplace for movie nights, or enjoy the views of nature from the expansive kitchen, designed to bring the outdoors in. Enjoy outdoor living with expansive front and back decks (both replaced in 2018), and a comfy gazebo. There is a fun treehouse for the young at heart. Additional features include a 4 car garage and a storage shed. Many updates include, new flooring on all levels-heated floors in the lower level. New front and back windows with built in blinds in the back. Plumbing and Electrical have all been updated with 200 amp service in both garages. Furnace/AC, appliances all updated recently. This is more than a home—it's a lifestyle.
