Over 2,600 square feet of refined living space, this 3-bedroom, 4-bath residence is a rare opportunity to own a turnkey retreat in one of Lost River’s most desirable settings. This 2024-built home blends refined craftsmanship, modern systems, and serene mountain living on a professionally graded lot surrounded by mature hardwoods near the GW National Forest. Thoughtfully planned with an exceptional layout and seamless flow, the home features flexible living spaces all wrapped in clean architectural lines and high-end finishes that feel both modern and timeless. Impeccably maintained and presenting in truly like-new condition, the property is ideally located at the end of a quiet road, offering privacy and convenience with fiber optic internet, underground utilities, and well-maintained private roads. Arriving at the home, you are welcomed by a charming front porch overlooking the forest. Inside, the entry level opens to a spacious foyer and entry hall with a large coat closet. This level features two generously sized bedrooms, each filled with natural light and luxurious en suite baths with walk-in tile showers, radiant heated tile floors, and marble double vanities. A versatile den provides flexibility as a home office, media room, or additional guest space, enhanced by sliding barn doors. The lower level also includes a dedicated laundry room with GE washer and dryer, utility sink, and an oversized mechanical/storage room. Nine-foot ceilings, recessed lighting, and ceiling fans enhance the bright, open feel, while porcelain tile flooring runs through the main areas with plush carpeting in the bedrooms and den. A custom solid white oak staircase leads to the upper level where the home truly shines. Wide-plank wood flooring flows throughout, and vaulted ceilings with exposed decorative beams create a dramatic yet inviting great room. A wood-burning fireplace anchors the space, which seamlessly connects to the expansive screened-in porch through an impressive 12-foot wall of glass with central sliding doors—blending indoor and outdoor living. The kitchen is centered around an oversized quartz island with integrated sink and abundant seating. High-end finishes include Frigidaire Gallery appliances, built-in microwave, wine refrigerator, and a spacious pantry closet. The open-concept design is ideal for everyday living and entertaining, complemented by a convenient half bath. Outdoor living is thoughtfully designed with a large screened-in porch for both lounge and dining areas, as well as an additional open deck ideal for grilling and entertaining. The primary suite is a private retreat featuring cathedral ceilings with decorative beams, a walk-in closet, and a beautifully appointed en suite bath with marble double vanity, walk-in shower, linen storage, and radiant heated tile floors. Built with quality in mind, the home is clad in low-maintenance James Hardie board siding and sits on a concrete foundation. Additional upgrades include JELD-WEN thermal windows, underground electric, fiber optic internet, Culligan water softener with UV filtration, tankless hot water heater, central HVAC, whole-house surge protection, and a newly installed (2026) 18kW Generac generator. The property also features two outbuildings—one fully conditioned with electric on a concrete foundation, ideal for a studio or workshop, and a second for lawn equipment and storage—as well as two oversized covered parking areas for convenience and protection from the elements. Residents enjoy easy access to hiking, fishing, and year-round recreation, along with nearby markets, restaurants, and boutique shops. Just minutes away, Guesthouse Lost River offers fine dining, a vibrant bar and lounge, and curated entertainment.
