About This Property

Tucked within a gated lakeside community, this beautifully crafted A-frame cabin offers the perfect blend of modern comfort and natural surroundings. While not waterfront, the home enjoys a peaceful setting with mountain-facing views and a gentle stream along the rear of the property.

Built by TimberBlock, this home features patented insulated log technology designed for energy efficiency, including R30+ wall insulation and eco-conscious materials. The main level offers a bright, open kitchen with quartz countertops, gas range, stainless steel island sink, beverage cooler, and generous storage. The living area is anchored by a remote-controlled fireplace with quartzite stone surround and opens to a spacious deck ideal for enjoying morning coffee or evening gatherings.

The home includes a loft providing additional living space and a full bath. A large bonus room offers flexibility for a variety of uses. The walk-out basement adds approximately 1,378 square feet of additional space and features French doors and a covered deck for seamless indoor-outdoor living.

Outdoor features include a pergola, swing, firepit, and fountain, creating inviting spaces to relax and entertain. A whole-home water filtration system enhances everyday living.

This property offers a unique opportunity to enjoy a thoughtfully designed home in a private, gated community with access to lakeside amenities.
