No expenses were spared when this one owner home was custom built in 2007. The attention to detail and custom design aspects mirror the superb location. This beautifully built Leatherwood home boasts 2,711 square feet of living space and showcases an authentic rustic design. It is embellished with striking Canadian Douglas Fir throughout the interior and exterior. The owners chose this wood to highlight the strength and beauty of this extraordinarily designed residence. It is also set up so that every room can observe the breathtaking panoramic views of the countryside.

The main living area features an open layout perfect for entertaining and consists of the great room, dining nook and kitchen. One of the main focal points of the home is the elegant kitchen, which boasts granite countertops, a kitchen island, Heartland appliances, ample storage and an amazing walk-in pantry.

Among the appliances are a Heartland Classic Wall Oven, 30” Classic Gas Range, a 30” Classic Collection Fridge & a sleek stainless steel Heartland dishwasher. These are set against gorgeous custom bead board Knotty Alder cabinets with self-closing doors. On top of the ample counter and cabinet space there is a huge easily accessible spice cabinet and a dreamy walk in pantry.

The kitchen opens out into a sunken great room with vaulted ceilings. Beautiful log craftsmanship garnishes the room and spotlights the detailed refurbished vintage gas stove. The room also showcases deep hunter green carpet which provides a nice balance against the Douglas fir walls. Its west facing windows are great for letting natural light flood in and provide stunning views of the mountains.On the main floor, you will also find two guest bedrooms both carpeted and an impressive spacious guest bathroom. This main floor bathroom features bead board Knotty Alder cabinets, a large 4-door linen cabinet, heated flooring, granite countertops and access to the walk-in sauna.

The upper level includes a beautiful loft or serenity room that overlooks the great room below, a private covered patio facing the West Mountain and lake, and a palatial master suite. The open and airy serenity room area features vaulted ceilings, multiple windows, tons of storage space and a custom built-in desk. A unique wall separating the serenity room from the master suite has embedded rustic wrought iron artwork, nicely complimenting the theme of the home. The elegant master suite also features a master bathroom with decorative tile, a soaker tub, and dual vanity sinks.

Other notable custom features include heated floors throughout a majority of the home and a delightful walk-in electric sauna lined with sturdy and beautiful Canadian Douglas fir.

The garage also has vaulted ceilings, heated concrete floors, and direct access to the backyard. Besides the garage, there is additional parking available on the provided RV pad.
