A stocked pond sits just below the porch of this 2.75-acre mountain cabin, with refinished decks at the water's edge and a stationary dock for an early cast or a slow evening. The land is wooded, private, and secluded, with views that take in the mountains, the valley, and the pond. Inside, cathedral ceilings and natural woodwork give the open main level a lofty, warm feel, with wood floors throughout and a loft above finished with a new railing. The kitchen has a gas range and steps out to a new deck, and a main-level laundry room holds the stacked washer and dryer. The bathroom is new, with new structural beams beneath it. The covered wraparound porch is where the days tend to end, with the pond in view and the woods all around. A side porch, fire pit, gazebo, and equipment building round out the grounds, and a gravel drive. Water comes from a private well and spring. The seller has put real work into the bones. The HVAC system is about 3 years old and the on-demand water heater about 18 months. Other updates include gutters, fascia, and drip edges below the metal roof, a re-insulated and re-lined crawl space, roughly half of the plumbing and a new main water valve, reverse osmosis and UV water filtration, new screen doors, and new back steps and railing. A back-up generator conveys, with a whole-house receptacle already in place, and a pond overflow diversion and fresh gravel around the pond finish the drive. The community shares year-round stream frontage, walking trails, and a picnic area. Come out at dusk, stand on the dock, and see the place the way the seller does. Private tours are available by appointment.
