Agent Description

Positioned high above Sapphire Valley within the prestigious gated community of Sassafras Ridge, this exceptional newer residence captures the essence of refined mountain living through striking modern architecture, elevated design, and breathtaking panoramic long-range views.

From the moment you arrive at the gated entrance, the property establishes a sense of arrival that is both private and extraordinary. As the front door opens, expansive mountain vistas immediately command attention. Perched atop the mountain, the home is immersed in natural light, with walls of glass, oversized windows, and expansive doors designed to frame the surrounding landscape while seamlessly connecting the interior to the outdoors.

Offered turnkey, the main living area is sophisticated yet inviting, opening effortlessly to a large covered deck through pocketing doors that create an exceptional indoor-outdoor living experience. Both the living room and the covered porch feature wood-burning fireplaces with gas starters, adding warmth and ambiance to the mountain setting.

The gourmet kitchen was designed for both everyday living and elevated entertaining, complete with premium finishes, generous workspace, and a well-appointed butler's pantry. A separate grilling deck located just off the kitchen enhances the home's entertaining capabilities and makes outdoor dining effortless.

The primary suite is a private retreat of impressive scale and comfort. The spa-inspired bathroom transforms daily routines into a luxurious experience, while an adjoining study provides a quiet, flexible space for work or relaxation. The main level also includes a private guest suite with its own entrance, offering comfort and privacy for visitors.

A designer powder room and laundry room complete the main level. A floating staircase descends to the lower level, where a spacious family room with a sleek modern fireplace creates an additional gathering space designed for relaxation and entertainment.

The lower level opens to another expansive covered deck where the views continue uninterrupted. A Marquis hot tub invites quiet evenings beneath the mountain sky, while an additional laundry area adds convenience. Each additional bedroom features its own ensuite bathroom, welcoming guests with privacy and comfort. The lower level also offers flexible space for television, games, and media, creating multiple gathering areas for enjoying life in the mountains.
