Property Description
Tucked into the serene beauty of Blue Lake Springs, this charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath, 1,874 sq. ft. tri-level mountain chalet delivers the perfect mix of rustic character, modern upgrades, and four-season adventure. Soaring knotty pine cathedral ceilings and an open-concept layout create a warm, inviting atmosphere from the moment you step inside. The main level features two comfortable bedrooms and a full bath, ideal for guests or family, while the upper level hosts a private primary suite with its own bath, walk-in closet, and loft, perfect for a home office or reading retreat. Downstairs, a walk-out basement bonus room provides flexible space for entertaining, a game room, or additional sleeping quarters. Designed for both comfort and efficiency, the home features updated luxury vinyl flooring throughout, new stainless steel appliances, and mini-split systems on the main level and upstairs for efficient heating and cooling. Extensive improvements include updated rain gutters, a retaining wall, French drains, runoff diversion piping, and thoughtful crawl space enhancements with soil covering and a sump pump system. Additional upgrades include an updated dryer venting system; a transfer switch has been installed, allowing the future owner to easily add a generator for peace of mind, no matter what nature brings. Step outside to a large deck, ideal for entertaining or simply soaking in the mountain air. When temperatures dip, the free-standing wood stove is the perfect excuse to stay in, unwind, and enjoy the quiet company of the surrounding pines. As part of the Blue Lake Springs HOA, owners enjoy access to a recreation center, pool, two private lakes, tennis courts, and more. Outdoor enthusiasts will love the location - just 30 minutes from Bear Valley Ski Resort and Lake Alpine, a 10-minute drive to Big Trees State Park, nearby trails, and a short drive to the charming town of Murphys for wine tasting, boutique shopping, and dining. From powder days to paddle days, sunset decks to fireside nights, this mountain chalet is your basecamp for year-round adventure.
