Description
Some homes aren't just for living, they are for restoring you. Tucked into the heart of the Bethel community, this mountain retreat sits on just under 15 acres of breathtaking hardwood forest, where the peacefulness you find is the kind you forgot existed. Choose your journey by taking any of the scenic routes that lead home, and let your worries fade with every curve of the road. Arrive to a nearly level, gracious driveway with room enough for all your friends and family, plus an oversized attached two car garage that makes snowy winter mornings and rainy days a little easier. Step inside and let the craftsmanship speak for itself. Soaring vaulted ceilings, rich woodwork, and an open concept floor plan draw your eye immediately to the centerpiece - a floor to ceiling stone wood burning fireplace that anchors the great room with warmth and character. Picture windows and skylights bathe the space in natural light while pulling the surrounding forest seamlessly indoors. The mountains aren't just the view here, they're part of the home itself. Two bedrooms and a full bath grace the main level, while the entire upper floor is devoted to a sprawling primary suite with a lovely view overlooking your property. Downstairs, the walkout basement has a large finished room with a second stone fireplace offering endless flexibility as a second living area, game room, or whatever suits your lifestyle and beautiful views out of the large picture windows. As if that is not enough, an expansive unfinished space beyond it offers abundant storage or the potential to make it entirely your own and is already equipped with a third full bathroom. Outside, the expansive back deck becomes your personal sanctuary. Mornings begin with coffee and birdsong. Evenings end in the practically new hot tub, mesmerized by the fall colors as the leaves change. When winter arrives, the leaves give way to breathtaking long range views that wrap around you in every direction. Up for an adventure? Hike through your own personal forest, breathe in the fresh mountain air, and make your way down to a charming little stream waiting at the bottom. If you've been craving the quiet of country life with the convenience of a short drive to Boone or Mountain City, this is a must see. It's more than a home, it's the life you've been quietly dreaming of.
