Nestled beneath a towering canopy of evergreens on more than five private acres, this remarkable mountain retreat offers the kind of peace that's becoming increasingly difficult to find. A spring-fed stream winds through the property, private trails meander beneath the trees, and beyond the property's edge lies a seemingly endless natural playground. Adjacent to Sierra Pacific land and across from the historic flumes, the property is minutes from Paradise Lake and Lake De Sabla for hiking, biking, horseback riding, fishing, and kayaking. Inside, soaring wood ceilings, walls of windows, hardwood floors, and warm natural finishes create a welcoming mountain atmosphere. The remodeled kitchen features granite countertops, a high-end 6-burner range, custom soft-close cabinetry, abundant storage, and generous gathering space. The flexible floor plan includes two bedrooms, three bathrooms, and two lofts ideal for guests, offices, studios, or additional sleeping areas. Multiple living spaces and a stunning glass-enclosed room provide year-round views of the surrounding forest and changing seasons. A large woodworking shop with a wood stove offers exceptional space for projects and hobbies, while a finished pump house provides added storage, office, or studio potential. Above the oversized two-car garage, the primary suite offer potential for a separate guest residence. This area, while connected to the main home, has an additional exterior entrance on the side of the house, as well as a private living area, kitchenette, spacious suite, and loft, ideally suited for extended family, long-term guests, multi-generational living, or potential rental income. Additional features include updated plumbing and electrical, a metal roof, generator hookup with generator, cell booster, extensive storage, and ample parking for all of your toys. Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy privacy, versatility, and the best of mountain living.
