Expanded seasonal visibility reveals breathtaking views in nearly every direction, creating an immersive sense of peace, privacy, and inspiration that is increasingly difficult to find. A private retreat, a creative escape, a place where time slows and ideas take shape.

An insulated outbuilding provides secure, airtight storage for equipment and seasonal items. The property can be offered turnkey, most furnishings and television available for inclusion, allowing for an effortless transition into mountain living. The existing two-bedroom septic system supports the possibility of adding another bedroom, while other potential building areas provide opportunities for future expansion.
