Tucked into the serene beauty of Blue Lake Springs, this charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath, 1,874 sq. ft. tri-level mountain chalet delivers the perfect mix of rustic character, modern upgrades, and four-season adventure. Soaring knotty pine cathedral ceilings and an open-concept layout create a warm, inviting atmosphere from the moment you step inside. The main level features two comfortable bedrooms and a full bath, ideal for guests or family, while the upper level hosts a private primary suite with its own bath, walk-in closet, and loft, perfect for a home office or reading retreat.

Designed for both comfort and efficiency, the home features updated luxury vinyl flooring throughout, new stainless steel appliances, and mini-split systems on the main level and upstairs for efficient heating and cooling. Extensive improvements include updated rain gutters, a retaining wall, French drains, runoff diversion piping, and thoughtful crawl space enhancements with soil covering and a sump pump system. Additional upgrades include an updated dryer venting system; a transfer switch has been installed, allowing the future owner to easily add a generator for peace of mind, no matter what nature brings. Step outside to a large deck, ideal for entertaining or simply soaking in the mountain air. When temperatures dip, the free-standing wood stove is the perfect excuse to stay in, unwind, and enjoy the quiet company of the surrounding pines.
