About this home

This fully renovated 2 bedroom, 1 bath cottage offers easy, single level living with a flat gravel driveway right to the front door, gravel that also helps with natural snow melt through the winter, so no hauling gear up a hillside staircase or fighting ice here. A fully fenced front entry patio with its own gate welcomes you inside. Inside you'll find warm wood floors, an updated kitchen, and a cozy wood stove for cold mountain nights. Step outside to a one level deck, then down a few stairs to your fire ring/pit, inviting you for an evenings under the stars. The backyard is fully fenced with wood fencing, flat, and ready to enjoy. Offered unfurnished, this home is a genuine blank canvas. Picture it as a full-time mountain residence, a quiet second home, or a short term rental ready to be styled your way for the upcoming ski season. Both long term and short term rentals are permitted, giving buyers real flexibility. Some listing photos have been virtually staged to help illustrate furniture placement and possibilities. The home itself is unfurnished and sold as is.
