About this property
Nestled at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the highly desirable Castle Glen Estates, this full-log mountain home delivers the perfect blend of rustic character and modern comfort. With four bedrooms and three bathrooms, the open floor plan features soaring cathedral ceilings, warm wood accents, and the timeless charm only true log construction can provide. The great room flows seamlessly into the kitchen and dining areas — an ideal setting for gathering after a day on the lake or slopes. A versatile loft offers space for kids, games, or extra sleeping, while secret cubbies throughout add a fun, memorable touch. Three levels of expansive decks extend living space to the outdoors, perfect for entertaining or simply taking in the peaceful mountain surroundings. Two bonus rooms are tucked into the lower level of the home, ideal for recreation space or additional storage. Set on over a third of an acre of beautifully landscaped, usable land, the property features a stunning pond and cascading waterfalls, children’s playground, and breathtaking views of Baker’s Pond. The backyard borders the Eagle Preserve, providing privacy, natural beauty, and a sense of escape. A two-car detached garage offers generous room for vehicles, lake gear, snow toys, and storage. Recent updates include a new metal roof with snow guards, fresh interior and exterior stain, all-new log chinking, a new tankless water heater, and new stainless appliances in the kitchen. The new furnishings throughout the home, carpet and window coverings, were all professionally designed and installed. Air conditioning and a Generac generator ensure year-round comfort and peace of mind. Conveniently close to the lake, village, ski resorts, shopping, and dining — yet private and peaceful — this home is as easy to own as it is to love. Exceptional outdoor space, thoughtful upgrades, and unmistakable mountain charm make this Castle Glen retreat the perfect full-time residence, vacation home, or family getaway.
