Property Description
If privacy, seclusion, and a dash of modern magic are at the very top of your house hunting wish list, all while being just moments from downtown Murphys, consider the search over. This hidden sanctuary is so delightfully tucked away from the street you might just miss it if you aren't looking closely. Coast down the long, level driveway where you are greeted by a striking, dark stained exterior, framed and contrasted by mature trees. Step through the contemporary rain glass entry door and into a spectacular open concept living room. Here, a dramatic wall of windows floods the space with golden sunlight, casting a gorgeous glow from the lush greenery outside. The split level architecture brings a modern vibe to the home, perfectly accented by a sleek metal stair rail. It is the ultimate spot to cozy up by the newer, electric fireplace and gaze out at the tree-tops. The updated chefs kitchen is outfitted with trendy white cabinetry, gleaming stone countertops, spacious center island, and a newer gas range, it is as functional as it is beautiful. Rich oak wood flooring flows seamlessly throughout the home, grounding the space with the timeless quality of natural materials that only look better with age. Located off the kitchen, you will find a finished, oversized two car garage complete with an EV charger. This sun kissed property is also engineered for the future, boasting a newer 5,135 watt solar panel system with hybrid grid tied storage. Paired with high efficiency heating and air conditioning, you can keep your climate controlled to absolute perfection without a second thought. Even your furry friends get the VIP treatment here, thanks to a dedicated dog run right off the main Trex deck that keeps them close to home. When it is time to unwind, the primary suite is a true oasis. Wake up to the sun peeking through large windows that frame distant hillside views, or relax in your own spacious sitting area and private balcony. The ensuite bathroom features a luxurious jetted tub, stone flooring, and an ample walk in closet ideally set up to double as an owner lock-off if desired. Downstairs, the laundry closet and two additional bedrooms with oversized windows and a stone tiled full bathroom offer plenty of space for family or guests. This active vacation rental offers the best of both worlds. Enjoy downtown Murphys with 30+ wineries, dining, and live music, plus Bear Valley skiing and Big Trees adventures just up the hill. Year round adventure awaits!
