With plenty of land, privacy, storage, and endless possibilities, there’s room here to bring your vision to life. And yes… bring the goats! The main level features 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, including a spacious primary bedroom with an abundance of fabulous closet space. The home has tons of storage, making it ideal for those who love having room for all the tools, toys, gear, and treasures that come with mountain living.
