Description

Set on a scenic 1.49 acre cul-de-sac lot in coveted Little Gap Estates this well-maintained 3 BR, 2.5 BA contemporary has been freshly updated and is ready to move right in, with a freshly painted interior throughout. Spend your weekends on the spacious two-tier wraparound deck, relaxing by the above-ground pool, enjoying the wooded backdrop from the ready-to-enjoy hammock, or gathering around the peaceful outdoor setting. The property also includes a shed, large paved drive completed in 2022, and built-in two-car garage. Inside, the dramatic two-story great room features cathedral ceilings, exposed wood beams, tall windows, and a floor-to-ceiling natural-stone hearth with wood-burning fireplace. The updated kitchen features two-tone white and charcoal cabinetry, tile backsplash, pendant lighting, stainless-steel appliances including a new refrigerator, and a peninsula with prep and seating space. It flows into the dining area, where a slider opens directly to the deck. A large first-floor family room offers vaulted ceilings, skylights, a French door, and abundant natural light. An updated powder room and refreshed laundry room with new tile flooring complete the main level. Upstairs, the primary suite features cathedral ceilings, an en suite bath, and two walk-in closets. Two additional bedrooms and a second full bath provide flexible space for family, guests, or a home office. The full walkout basement offers generous storage and workshop space, a second washer and dryer hookup, and strong potential for future finished living space. Major 2026 improvements include a new AC compressor with heat pump, well bladder, and hot water heater. The septic system was pumped and received a new grinder pump in 2023, and the roof was replaced in 2017. A peaceful mountain setting close to skiing, hiking, and everything the Blue Mountain area has to offer.
