This stunning Al Platt-designed home, known as the celebrated "Timber Sky Retreat," is prominently featured in magazines and websites. Originally crafted for the Oreck family, this home seamlessly blends classic charm with modern luxury. As you approach, custom stonework and a serene water feature beneath a charming bridge evoke an enchanting storybook ambiance. Picture misty mornings when, upon opening the accordion doors, mountain fog softly drifts across your reSAWN™ reclaimed antique oak floors, merging indoor comfort with natural beauty. The expansive backyard delights with a welcoming firepit, whimsical playhouse under the deck with spectacular mountain views, and direct access to Mountain Air’s scenic trails. Inside, the home balances warmth and sophistication at every turn. Furnishings are negotiable, and three golf carts are negotiable. Plus, buyers who secure a full golf membership at the Country Club will enjoy a generous club credit.
