Hardwood floors, vintage doors, and classic details add timeless appeal, while the gas-burning wood stove creates a cozy place to gather after a day of hiking, skiing, wine tasting, or exploring the Sierra Nevada. The kitchen features a classic Wedgewood cook stove, bringing a touch of vintage charm to the heart of the home.
