The home

About this home

Some properties offer one way to live. This one offers several. Perched on nearly six private acres with sunrise views over Foss Mountain, this Lindal Cedar home has the feel of a private family compound, with grandfathered legal three-unit status that provides exceptional flexibility for multi-generational living, guest accommodations, rental income, or simply spreading out and enjoying the property as one extraordinary residence. As a single home, the main house unfolds across three levels: a sun-drenched main floor anchored by a double-sided stone fireplace, granite kitchen with breakfast bar, and a first-floor den with peaceful views; an upper level where wood, glass, and treetops create something closer to a treehouse than a floor plan, complete with wet bar and flexible recreation space; and a walkout lower level with two bedrooms, full bath, kitchen, and family room that brings the outdoors in through walls of windows. The upper two floors offer three bedrooms and 2.5 baths. The lower level offers two additional bedrooms, a full bath, kitchen, and living space. For those seeking income potential or independent living arrangements, the lower level can function as a private apartment with its own entrance. Above the detached heated garage, a 1,200-square-foot, two-bedroom, one-bath apartment operates completely independently, with its own entrance, electric meter, septic system, heating system, and hot water system. Two septic systems. Separate living spaces. Multiple ways to use the property. Live in one unit and let the others help offset ownership costs. Create a private retreat for extended family. Welcome guests while maintaining privacy for everyone. Or simply enjoy the entire property as a mountain compound unlike anything else on the market. The mountain doesn't care how you use it. It just delivers the view.
