Unique Subterranean Home with a Mountain View! This property could be your Homesteading Mountain Retreat. Price reduced well below appraised value! Looking for a home that embraces self-sufficiency, energy efficiency, and mountain living? This unique property offers just that. The main living area is located in the partially below-grade level, a design that helps regulate temperature year-round and can mean savings on heating and cooling costs. Here you'll find a spacious den with a cozy fireplace, a large kitchen and dining area, a full bathroom, and three additional rooms that could be used as bedrooms, office, or hobby space.
Upstairs includes 2 bedrooms, a full bathroom, a comfortable living room, and a deck with a close-up mountain view. Altogether, the home has the potential to function as 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms with both a den and living room, all centered around the inviting kitchen and dining space.
The property spans 2.99 acres with a detached garage, barn, and wooded area complete with a charming deck tucked among the trees—perfect for unwinding and watching the wildlife. With a barn, usable acreage, and outdoor living spaces, the land offers great potential for a hobby farm or homesteading venture. You'll also enjoy close proximity to hiking, camping, fishing, whitewater rafting, horseback riding trails, and waterfalls. Another amazing detail is the seasonal produce stand within walking distance!
The home currently uses well water, and lines are already run for a future connection to public water if desired. An appraisal was completed prior to listing, and priced well below the appraised value, allowing buyers to move forward with confidence. All information from seller and public records. Buyer/buyer's agent to verify.
