A beloved icon of American design, the quintessential A-frame takes center stage in this charming wooded retreat. Inside, vaulted ceilings and an open-concept kitchen and living area create an inviting space filled with warmth and character. True to classic A-frame design, large windows at the front bring the outdoors in, illuminating the interior throughout the day and framing the surrounding wooded landscape. While preserving the home's original character, local designer Emerald Spalding Designs thoughtfully refreshed the space with both function and aesthetic in mind, creating a welcoming place to gather and host. Updates include new flooring, a new kitchen sink, updated countertops, new fans and lighting, updated shower and bath fixtures, and fresh paint-breathing new life into this special home. Thoughtful exterior improvements continue the theme of hospitality and comfort. The backyard has been regraded to create an inviting entertaining space complete with a fire pit, privacy fence, and paver patio. A covered deck provides the perfect setting for enjoying Payson's beautiful weather, while the front circular driveway adds both charm and convenience. Offering 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and 1,120 sq. ft., the home also features RV parking and a 2-car garage with a workbench. Whether envisioned as a mountain getaway or a short-term rental investment, this distinctive property presents a rare opportunity to own a beloved piece of architectural character.
