Perched on a plateau just above the valley floor sits this traditional 5,000+/- sq. ft. home with direct Steamboat Ski Area views in the coveted Dakota Ridge Subdivision. The private 3.3 acre home is the closest property in the subdivision to the ski area and is nicely landscaped with aspens, mature pine trees and a large yard for outdoor recreation. The open floor plan and large picture windows create a bright, open, and relaxing space to soak in panoramic views. The great layout on the first floor includes the living room with a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, a formal dining room, a breakfast nook and separate family room. The kitchen is finished with cherry cabinets and the high-end appliances. Host family and friends with ease in one of the 4 bedrooms including a main level suite. The upper level begins with a spacious loft with windows taking in the incredible views, a luxurious master suite with his and hers bathrooms, huge closets, a nice laundry room and two additional bedrooms. The outdoor spaces do not disappoint with multiple patio areas and a raised deck with hot tub. Behind the oversized 3-car garage is a spacious hobby room plumbed for a small kitchen. You’ll be first in the Gondola line on the powder mornings with the convenient location of the home which is also just a short bike ride to fishing on the Yampa River, the Strings Music Pavilion and downtown along the bike path for lunch.
