The Space:
You’ll arrive via a private driveway set above the home, with approximately ten steps leading down to the front entry. The setting feels quiet and wooded, offering privacy while remaining directly across from Holiday Valley.
The main level is designed for gathering and entertaining. The stainless steel kitchen was originally designed by a former professional chef and is exceptionally well suited for cooking meals for large groups. It includes a full-size traditional refrigerator and a standard residential dishwasher, making extended stays and shared meals easy and practical. A round kitchen table seats four for casual dining, while a traditional dining table nearby seats six. With additional chairs available, the dining setup can comfortably accommodate up to twelve.
Just beyond the kitchen, the sunken main living room offers a comfortable place to relax after a day outdoors. The space includes ample seating and a 75-inch Roku TV for downtime or movie nights. A wood-burning fireplace is present in this room but is not available for guest use. A wet bar on the main floor adds convenience for entertaining and keeps the living area uncluttered.
Head upstairs to the bedroom level, where three bedrooms and two full bathrooms are thoughtfully arranged. The primary suite features a queen bed and a private en-suite bathroom. A second bedroom includes a queen bed, while another bedroom offers a full bed. Each of these bedrooms has its own Roku TV, allowing guests to unwind independently.
An additional sleeping area is located in a lofted bedroom with a full bed. This space maintains the open chalet-style character of the home and works well for older children or adults.
Head down to the basement to find a second living space designed for relaxation and recovery. This level features a spacious lounge with a 65-inch Roku TV, with Spectrum cable available through the Roku app. A private sauna provides a great way to unwind after skiing, hiking, or biking. The third full bathroom is located on this level, along with an elliptical machine available for guest use.
During the warmer months, the wraparound deck becomes a highlight of the home. Overlooking Holiday Valley, it offers seasonal views and a peaceful place to enjoy morning coffee or evening downtime. Mature trees surround the property, reinforcing the mountain setting.
