Set across 3.71 secluded acres in Bear Mountain Vista, this reimagined mountain contemporary residence is defined by stone, timber, expansive glass, and a remarkable connection to its surroundings. Following more than $600,000 in thoughtful improvements, the home has been completely transformed, balancing architectural character with a refined, modern sensibility across more than 5,000 square feet. South-facing windows draw natural light across white oak floors, while soaring wood-plank ceilings and a substantial stone fireplace lend warmth and scale to the great room.
