About This Home

As of December 2023

Welcome to this 4 bedroom, 3 bath home in Highlands, built in 1975. As you enter the split entrance, you will be immediately impressed by the upper level's open living and dining area, complete with a cozy fireplace. Three bedrooms and 2 baths upstairs provide ample space for family or guests, and the deck offers views of the valley. The lower level is where this home truly shines! An in-law suite awaits, complete with its own kitchenette, bathroom, bedroom, living room, and flex space for dining and workshop/office. The single garage provides easy access to the lower level, but parking on site is also available if the lower level is used as a separate living space. The yard surrounding the home is partially fenced. This listing includes three PINs, with the other two located above the home and accessed by a separate driveway. These two lots are completely open and boast partial ridgeline views, making them perfect for a variety of uses. And with two existing workshops already in place, complete with electricity and water, you'll have everything you need for any project or hobby. Don't miss this opportunity to own your piece of the mountain! Home's exterior and roof are freshly cleaned!
