Situated on over 3 private acres along paved Lousetown Road, this Tahoe-inspired chalet offers the perfect blend of rustic character and modern comfort. Inside, the thoughtfully designed single-story floor plan features 3 bedrooms, a dedicated office, and a versatile bonus room—ideal for a home gym, hobby space, or guest retreat. The dramatic great room is the centerpiece of the home, showcasing soaring vaulted ceilings and an impressive floor-to-ceiling river rock fireplace that creates a warm and inviting gathering place year-round. Thoughtful updates provide added value and peace of mind, including a new furnace, new water heater, new well pump, new water filtration system, and new garage door opener, allowing you to focus on enjoying your new home instead of tackling major maintenance.
