This amazing dream home was custom built and designed by the owners. It is nestled in over 5 acres of pine forest with a beautiful, clear, spring fed, private swimming pond. It is also great for fishing and ice skating, with a sand beach, pier, swimming raft and a large fire pit. The home is close to town, yet secluded enough to grant you all of the privacy of country living. Barn wood and beams as well as pine logs were incorporated to accentuate the 26 foot cathedral ceilings in the great room, with large windows overlooking the pond and forest. The large wood burning fire place as well as an outdoor wood burning stove, are incorporated with the tile in-floor heating, giving it an extremely cozy feeling throughout the winter months and making it economical to heat. Facing the pond and forest is a large deck with an outdoor hot tub to enjoy observing the wild life all year long. The yard is large and excellent for romping and playing volleyball, soccer and basketball. The home has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms with an additional one bedroom apartment with a kitchen/living room combo, and bathroom with shower, above the attached 3 stall heated garage. The upstairs bedrooms have added features of a built in loft for sleeping and an elevated fort to play in. There is a large, covered outbuilding for storing equipment, vehicles, toys, etc. The property is within minutes of the Granite Peak Ski Hill, snowmobiling trails, cross country skiing and nature trails, and many other recreational facilities and events.
