The bath features a large garden tub set beneath windows overlooking the pines, along with a generous vanity and warm mountain finishes that continue the character of the home. Upstairs, the open loft creates a versatile second living area that can easily serve as a family room, media space, or in-home office while overlooking the dramatic great room below.

Vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings, exposed beams, abundant windows, and thoughtful architectural details carry the home's mountain style throughout.
