Escape to your private mountain retreat on 22.88 acres. This 2-bedroom, 2-bath home includes a loft used as a 3rd bedroom and vaulted wood ceilings throughout to add to the mountain charm with a detached garage, shop and 2 bed, 1 bath ADU. Relax on the wraparound deck with valley views, enjoy the peaceful surroundings and sometimes you can even catch fireworks in the distance over the city. The spacious primary bedroom features a cozy nook with bench storage to pull out a blanket and get cozy by the window on a rainy day. Or enjoy the fresh mountain air on the private balcony. A fenced garden area and chicken coop are just outside, plus a small orchard with walnut, pear, and apple trees. Stay warm with a centrally located wood stove and enjoy ample storage for outdoor gear. The property has a 1,500+ gallon water holding tank and a newer well pump(2023) located on higher ground ensuring water even during a power outage. A 2-car garage with approximately a 500 sqft workshop space behind is perfect for all projects. An unfinished ADU above the garage offers income potential, and even has its own septic tank. This home has been a family retreat and offers endless possibilities for a peaceful lifestyle away from the city or even as a short term getaway to slow down and enjoy nature.
