As you arrive, you'll be greeted by an impressive brick-walled driveway leading to this stately residence, complemented by a substantial three-car detached garage that provides ample space for vehicles, workshop needs, or storage. The home's elevated position on the sloping terrain creates dramatic curb appeal while offering those spectacular mountain vistas that make everyday living feel like a private retreat.
