Some places you visit. This one you start planning your life around. Tucked into Shooting Creek on 9.19 unrestricted acres, this mountain retreat borders more than 3,300 acres of U.S. Forest Service land — so your backyard view doesn't end at a fence line, it keeps going. The mountain views are here in every season, and getting here is easy with paved access right to the door. Inside, it's warm, grounded, and made for gathering: a cozy living room anchored by a grand rock fireplace, hardwood floors throughout, a formal dining area, and an eat-in kitchen with a breakfast bar and stainless Whirlpool appliances. The massive primary suite is a retreat of its own, with its own fireplace and a large ensuite featuring a garden tub. Two additional bedrooms share a Jack and Jill bath, and downstairs, the finished basement adds even more room to live — a rec room, a workshop/canning room, and an extra bedroom perfect for guests, hobbies, or a creative escape. Practical comforts are already handled: new carpet upstairs, new flooring in the basement, two zoned heat pumps, and a whole-house generator for true peace of mind. Outside is where this property really sets itself apart. There's a large detached 3-car garage, a 2-stall horse barn with feed and tack room, a goat barn, new fencing, multiple decks for morning coffee and golden-hour sunsets, and a swim spa/hot tub for exercise and unwinding after a day on the land. Whether you're dreaming of horses, homesteading, hosting family, or simply having room to breathe, this property gives you the space — and the freedom — to make it yours. See it in person to feel what the photos can't quite capture. Schedule your showing today, and explore the property!
