BREATHTAKING IN PHOTOS. UNFORGETTABLE IN PERSON.

Perched at approximately 2,500' elevation, the home commands spectacular 110-DEGREE MOUNTAIN VIEWS with short-, mid- and long-range vistas extending approximately 26 miles. This setting is nearly impossible to duplicate--and the home built upon it is just as exceptional. Thoughtfully designed by its owners from the floor plan forward, this home was created one detail at a time to complement the land and maximize the views. Locally crafted Knotty Alder cabinetry, front door and special-order interior doors pair with wrapped beams and remarkable 200-year-old American White Oak used for the indoor fireplace mantel and handcrafted range hood. The craftsmanship simply must be experienced in person. The kitchen is a showpiece with a FORNO appliance package featuring a 56'' refrigerator/freezer, 48'' 8-burner range with double ovens, dishwasher and microwave. Herringbone-patterned tile accents both bathrooms, while oversized double-pane bedroom windows were intentionally selected to frame the mountains.

A private porch off the primary suite leads directly to a 25'x15' fenced artificial-turf pet area. The exterior features 50-year Hardie Board siding and substantial custom porch construction. A CIRCULAR DRIVEWAY a rare mountain convenience provides easy ingress and egress, complemented by additional parking.

An approximately 500 SF GARAGE/WORKSHOP is insulated with closed-cell foam and climate controlled for year-round use. The approximately 700' PRIVATE WELL features an upgraded pump and membrane- and carbon-filtered water. A 22kW GENERAC whole-home generator is positioned approximately 100' from the residence to reduce operating noise. Two 50-amp RV hookups provide additional versatility, including one with sewage hookup capability. Privacy begins at the solar-powered gated entrance from Timberwolf Trail. Lot 16 features a charming upgraded model church and maintained landscaping, creating a memorable entrance to Whiskey Ridge. Every element from the 13.91± acres and sweeping 180-degree views to the custom floor plan, handcrafted materials, outdoor living and years of thoughtful improvements creates something truly ONE OF ONE.
