The main level offers an open floor plan where the living room, kitchen, and dining room surround a wall of windows facing the distant valley. The kitchen is anchored by rare, one-of-a-kind bullnose-finished granite countertops, extra deep sink and rich hardwood flooring, creating a space that feels both elevated and inviting.

The huge shop houses the paid-off solar system that powers the home and detached garage, helping keep utilities low. The detached 4 car garage/shop also includes a full workshop and stove, while an additional storage building keeps equipment dry and ready, separate from your personal hobby zone or outdoor gear.
