Escape to your own mountain retreat nestled in the Sierras! This modern home is light and bright throughout offering expansive views of the forest and beyond. With over 6.5 acres on a level to gentle slope behind a private gate, this property offers many possibilities as a vacation get-away or primary residence. The great room, warmed by a woodstove, is an open concept that flows into the island kitchen. Adjacent to the great room is the high vaulted sun room, currently used as a dining area - this room was designed to offer amazing views and passive solar heating. Two upstairs bedrooms feature vaulted ceilings with skylights; the owner's suite has a large walk-in closet and private bath room. There is a large deck and hardscaped area perfect for entertaining. The lower level offers both a separate bed/bath, second sunroom, and bonus living space. There is plenty of space for multiple vehicles, toys and there is even RV electrical hook up just off the concrete driveway. All of the exterior of the home was refinished/sealed November 2023. Located at about the 4000 foot elevation in the Cedar Ridge area, this home is just about 15 minutes to the quaint shops of Twain Harte and 25 miles to Pinecrest lake and Dodge Ridge Ski resort and the Hwy 108 corridor. Columbia State Park and other Gold Country attractions nearby make this a great base for many mountain adventures!
