Property Description
New construction with heated 30x40 garage, oversized 6-bedroom septic system, and future expansion potential on 3+ acres. Mountain views, privacy, and flexibility. Offered at $699,000. Set on a paved, town-maintained road just minutes from I-93 and Owl’s Nest Resort, this newly built home delivers something increasingly difficult to find in today’s market: usable land, open skies, modern construction, and long-term upside, with no HOA. Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, the home offers three fully finished levels filled with natural light. The walkout lower level features 9’ ceilings, a second living area with a custom bar, an additional bedroom, and direct access to the outdoor patio area overlooking the mountains. The main level is centered around an open kitchen, dining, and living space with elevated deck access and sweeping western-facing views, while the upper level provides a quiet retreat with two bedrooms, including the primary suite. What truly sets this property apart is the infrastructure already in place. An oversized 6-bedroom septic system, newly drilled well designed for future expansion, and existing driveway access create rare flexibility for future use, expansion, or additional dwelling potential. The detached 30x40 heated garage with 14’ leg heights and a taller ceiling, a 6” slab, separate propane service, and strong electrical capacity offers exceptional versatility for vehicles, storage, hobbies, or workshop space. Additional features include underground utilities, tankless hot water, whole-home audio, generator hookup, and redundant heating systems for year-round efficiency and reliability. Now vacant and ready for immediate occupancy, this is a rare opportunity to secure a newly built home with mountain views, privacy, and future potential as the spring and summer markets heat up.
