The main home has been extensively renovated between 2022 and 2025 with over $1 million in thoughtful upgrades including a full rebuild of mechanical systems, a smart home setup, professional interior styling, and high-end finishes throughout. Artisan log construction, natural wood and stone interiors, and over 30 Andersen windows bring in forest and mountain views from nearly every room, while six fireplaces create cozy gathering spaces indoors and out. This mountain retreat includes a chef’s kitchen with a full KitchenAid stainless steel suite, two laundry areas, and rich character in every detail. Tucked further into the trees, the Honeymoon Treehouse Villa is a newly built architectural jewel, elevated 15 feet above the forest floor. Built to Passive House / High-Performance standards, it features quadruple-pane glazing, premium insulation, and a future cantilevered hot tub deck, all framed by a soaring roofline designed for both elegance and energy efficiency.
