About This Home

As of October 2025

Back Up contracts be accepted. Nestled on 14 acres of gently rolling pasture with a tranquil creek and breathtaking year-round mountain views, this well-maintained 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath home offers the perfect blend of comfort, space, and versatility. The main level features a spacious living room with soaring ceilings and a cozy wood-burning fireplace, a well-appointed kitchen with newer appliances, and a charming breakfast nook that captures the stunning views. Step out onto the large deck to enjoy peaceful mornings or entertain under the open sky. Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms including a generous primary suite with a private bath and walk-in closet. The lower level, formerly used as a professional office with a reception area and waiting room, offers endless possibilities—ideal for a home office, family room, or in-law suite. The land itself is a true gem, with open pasture perfect for horses or future development, and a second well already in place should you wish to build an additional home. Located just 10 minutes from town, this property combines rural serenity with convenient access to amenities.
