Property Description
Thoughtfully custom designed and built with quality, comfort, and longevity in mind, this exceptional mountain retreat offers the perfect blend of craftsmanship and lifestyle on a rare level lot in desirable Dorrington. Every detail was carefully considered, from the underground utilities and no exposed exterior plumbing to rafters spaced just 12 inches on center for added strength during heavy Sierra snow years. Premium Marvin windows, Baldwin door hardware, Phantom screens, central heat, and a classic Vermont Castings wood-burning stove create a home that is as beautiful as it is functional. The spacious floor plan is designed for effortless mountain living, featuring a desirable main level primary suite complete with a luxurious en-suite bath showcasing a timeless antique clawfoot soaking tub. A large mudroom, dedicated indoor laundry room, attached two-car garage, and a versatile upper-level recreation room provide flexibility for full-time living or weekend retreats. Hidden within the home, a secret storage area adds a fun and unexpected touch while offering practical space for valuables or seasonal belongings. Outdoor living is equally impressive with a beautifully maintained setting featuring a drip irrigation system, a large woodshed, and 220-volt wiring already installed on the rear deck for a future hot tub or A/C. For those seeking even more privacy, the adjacent vacant lot is also available for purchase, creating the opportunity to own an expansive mountain estate. Located just minutes from area recreation, including hiking and biking trails, Big Trees State Park, Bear Valley skiing, and nearby Big Trees Village recreation facilities, this one of a kind property delivers the mountain lifestyle you've been dreaming of. Homes constructed with this level of quality, thoughtful design, and attention to detail are a rare find.
