Description

This stunning, custom home has everything you want in a mountain retreat: high elevation, layered Western views, and space for entertaining. The open floor plan features a chef's dream kitchen that leads to the incredible covered porch with a built-in grill, wood burning stone fireplace, and wood dumbwaiter. There are many custom features throughout, including striking custom wood flooring, built-in cabinetry, and timbers in the great room. The primary suite on the main level includes a sitting room/office, walk-in closet, and spacious bath. The lower-level features three bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a generous living room. Just outside you will find a stone patio with a built-in hot tub and fire pit for those cool summer evenings that you will surely have at over 4,500 feet of elevation. Balsam Mountain Preserve is a private 4,400 acre club community with 3,200 acres of conservation land and completed amenities featuring golf, equestrian, scenic trails, tennis and dining.
