Escape to your own off-the-grid mountain retreat with breathtaking long-range views—offered fully furnished and ready to enjoy.
Tucked away on a quiet gravel road with only two neighboring homes, this property offers the peace and privacy buyers dream of—yet you’re just 10 minutes from the charm of downtown West Jefferson. Inside, the home welcomes you with warm wood finishes, an open loft design, and a cozy fireplace anchoring the main living space. The kitchen is both stylish and functional, featuring granite countertops, live-edge shelves, a tile backsplash, and a beautiful live-edge island perfect for gathering. Step outside to one of the home’s best features—a covered back porch designed for mountain living. Enjoy evenings around the fire table, grilling with friends, or relaxing at the outdoor bar while taking in the views. Upstairs, the loft-style primary suite offers a private retreat with a tile shower bath and sitting area. Just steps away, a separate tiny home creates the perfect guest space or income opportunity, complete with loft bedroom, bath, kitchen, and fireplace—ideal for visitors or a potential vacation rental. Tiny home was not permitted but connected to the septic system. Set between the two homes, the fire pit area creates a natural gathering space under the stars. Powered by a 4.5KW solar system with whole-house generator backup and remote monitoring, this home blends independence with modern convenience. Private well and septic in place. Whether you're looking for a weekend escape, full-time off-grid living, or a unique rental property—this one checks all the boxes.
