The Stair Step Cottage is a unique home rumored to have been built by a Norwegian shipwright, this cleverly designed house is light-filled and welcoming. It displays a certain character and patina that is hard to find. You will be surrounded by knotty pine walls, wood plank floors, wormy chestnut cabinets, stained glass, beautiful glass doors, and numerous windows with views of the trees and lawns, and mountain breezes to ruffle the curtains. The Stone Hobbit fireplace can warm the entire house on a chilly mountain morning or create a cozy ambiance for an evening with a good book or an old movie. The romantic master suite has vaulted beamed ceilings and views of the treetops. The yard has a stone fire pit to relax by while enjoying a nice glass of wine, and a fenced-in area for your 4 legged family members. This house is truly one-of-a-kind. This is an extraordinary place for someone who is looking for something different. Prepare to be delighted!
