Oversized windows bathe the interiors in natural light, while French doors open onto a stone patio, where sweeping mountain and reservoir views take center stage.
The chef's kitchen is both charming and functional, featuring a farmhouse sink, stainless steel appliances, a spacious island, and abundant cabinetry. It seamlessly flows into the formal dining room, where original pocket doors provide an elegant transition into the living area.
The grand staircase leads to a luminous primary suite, a private retreat and ensuite bath. A vintage clawfoot tub, perfectly positioned to capture the stunning views, serves as the focal point. The additional four bedrooms each retain their early 20th-century charm while offering modern comfort.
At the pinnacle of the home, the third-floor cupola boasts windows on all sides, offering an awe-inspiring perspective of the surrounding landscape. Outside, the park-like grounds invite quiet exploration. A luxurious in-ground saltwater pool is perfectly positioned to take full advantage of the breathtaking mountain views, creating an idyllic space for relaxation.
