Discover this beautiful 9.34 acre property hidden in the foothills south of Bragg Creek. A wilderness paradise, this property features a pristine mixed forest and lovely vistas of rolling sunny meadows and the majestic Rocky Mountains beyond. Alpine wild-flowers grow in abundance and in perfect harmony with the wandering wildlife that quietly punctuate the landscape. Peaceful and private, this extraordinary location is the perfect setting for this inviting, hand-crafted executive home.
The winding driveway gently curves through the forest to this warm and welcoming country style home. Immediately inviting, a charming covered verandah leads to a beautiful set of solid ash double doors that open into the stunning foyer, with gleaming hardwood flooring that continues through to the living room, dining room and fantastic open-concept kitchen. With soaring double height ceilings and a wall full of huge windows overlooking the valley to the southwest, the living room is superbly bright and spacious. The living room boasts beautiful built in cabinetry and an energy-efficient wood burning stove that is set into an impressive soapstone fireplace.
The well-designed gourmet kitchen is a chef's delight. Bright and airy, the kitchen features granite counter-tops and backsplashes, a big island that boasts double under-mount sinks and an eat-at bar. The kitchen also boasts an informal dining area that is flooded with sunshine and offers access to the expansive, multi-tiered south-west facing deck.
A gorgeous formal dining room also enjoys an enormous amount of natural light and can be entered through the kitchen or front foyer. Whether entertaining guests in the formal dining room or relaxing in the living room, the whole home has a comfortable and nicely integrated flow.
The main level also holds a nicely finished powder room and a large laundry/mud room that includes a second freezer, a garbage compactor and plenty of storage space. This room provides access to the oversized triple-car garage with an integrated workshop. The garage also has a conveniently located dog/boot wash station and a doggy door to the backyard dog run.
The elegant and open flow of the home continues into the upper level with two separate wings containing luxurious sleeping quarters and a fantastic self-contained guest suite.
The gorgeous master bedroom is beautifully illuminated by natural light that floods through huge windows and glass sliding doors that lead to a private balcony. Further enhancing the terrific appeal, this bedroom boasts a walk-in closet and dressing room and a bright 4-piece en-suite bathroom that features a jetted tub, glass shower and a separate toilet area. This wing also contains a lovely guest bedroom with its own 4-piece en-suite.
Extended visits from family or friends can be easily accommodated in the guest wing that features a large bedroom, a 3 piece en-suite, a bright kitchenette and a lovely living room with beautiful French doors. A superb space, the entire wing has wonderful vistas, is naturally bright, and would also work well as a home office space for two people.
The lower level, with in-floor heat, offers a great place for family recreation and additional guest accommodation. The comfortable family room is the perfect spot for a home theatre or simply just a quiet spot to relax. This level also features 2 large bedrooms, a 4 piece bathroom and a utility room that has a hobby area with a workbench.
Both peaceful and private, the stunning natural landscape is further enhanced by an incredible deck with an integrated hot tub, and a wide staircase leading to the back garden which boasts a fire-pit, tree house and art studio. Not your average tree house, this amazing structure features rope-bridge access, a sunny deck and is equipped with power, phone and internet connections. If that isn't enough, the entire back of the tree house is a professional climbing wall complete with belay points and holds. The property also features a delightful little art studio; the studio could also be used as a deluxe playhouse as it features power, lighting and a water cooler.
