The Space
The main level is the heart of the home, with an open living room, dining area, and chef’s kitchen framed by soaring ceilings and forest views. The kitchen features Thermador appliances, quartz countertops, a large island, and everything you need for slow breakfasts, après ski dinners, and relaxed meals together.
The living room is cozy and elevated, with comfortable seating, designer furnishings, a fireplace, and easy access to the covered deck.
Outside, enjoy the private covered hot tub, BBQ grill, Adirondack seating, and outdoor dining space. In summer, the deck becomes an extension of the living room. In winter, the hot tub glows through the trees.
