Property Description
Stunning Move-In Ready Mountain Home - Many Updates, Fully Furnished 4 bedrooms, 4 1/2 bathrooms.

The main level includes a spacious primary suite with an updated ensuite bath, a large great room with floor-to-ceiling windows, and remote-controlled shades that frame breathtaking mountain views. The bright, open kitchen features tile flooring, granite countertops, and newer stainless steel appliances. A sunny dining area opens to a deck for al fresco dining and entertaining. Outdoor living is exceptional with two expansive decks.
