Nestled into the mountainside at just over 3,600 feet in elevation and protected by the ridgeline above, this custom-built A-frame is a rare blend of privacy, craftsmanship, and breathtaking long-range mountain views.

Completed in 2021 and intentionally overbuilt with quality and durability in mind, the home offers just over 1,700 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space with 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and a loft overlooking the main living area. A dramatic wall of windows serves as the focal point of the home, filling the interior with natural light while framing the surrounding mountain landscape. The heavily tinted glass enhances year-round comfort and energy efficiency without sacrificing the views. The open-concept design seamlessly connects the living, dining, and kitchen areas, creating an inviting space for both everyday living and entertaining. In the kitchen, solid wood custom cabinetry is paired with leathered granite countertops, offering a timeless blend of warmth, character, and craftsmanship. The loft above provides flexible space for a home office, reading retreat, or additional guest accommodations. Beyond the home, the acreage offers an exceptional sense of privacy and the opportunity to enjoy your own mountain estate. The property features the potential for an additional homesite, creating flexibility for a guest home, family compound, or future expansion. The expansive acreage invites exploration, recreation, and the creation of trails, all while enjoying the peace and seclusion that only a property of this scale can provide. Built with longevity and resilience in mind, the home features hurricane strapping and a reinforced concrete-filled block foundation. Modern conveniences have not been overlooked, with an EV charger, RV-compatible outlet, and generator port already in place.
