Set on 5 acres with breathtaking views of Lake of the Pines and the surrounding mountains, this original-character A-frame is a rare opportunity to create something truly special. Sitting at the top of the ridge, on a cul-de-sac street, this unique house is filled with warmth, charm, and great bones, showcases soaring real wood ceilings, timeless architectural details, and endless potential for personalization. The dramatic floor-to-ceiling hearth fireplace not only serves as a secondary heat source in the winter, but is also the heart of the home, creating a perfect cozy gathering space for relaxing dinners and evenings with family and friends. Step outside onto the deck, the perfect place to unwind, entertain, and take in the peaceful surroundings and stunning views. Designed for both beauty and functionality, the property is served by city water along with a separate irrigation well for your vegetation. Installed solar, with a Generac backup generator provides added efficiency and long-term savings. Additional features include a roof sprinkler system for fire safety and a charming roundabout gravel driveway that creates a welcoming entrance to the property. The fully usable acreage is ready for your vision: complete powered shed; room for a garden area; maybe even a chicken coop; and low-maintenance landscaping. Certified reports are on file and available for review to show the integrity of the home structure. Whether you're dreaming of a retirement home, a vacation getaway, or a peaceful mountain oasis surrounded by natural beauty, this property offers endless possibilities. A property like this does not come along often offering stunning views, usable land, authentic character, valuable infrastructure, and so much more to make this home your own.
