This cozy mountain-style home on Payette Lake is a mountain retreat

03.08.2022

This cozy mountain-style home offers two beaches and 213 feet of private shoreline on the eastern arm of Payette Lake, a large body of water known for its excellent boating as well as its unspoiled beauty and surrounding campsites and hiking trails.

The area is well known for its world-class sports, including skiing, fishing, snowmobiling and hiking and biking, according to listing agent Cheri Reeves, of Engel V lkers McCall.

She said that this nearly 3 acre wooded property with a two-story house built in 2002 is in a quiet cove with good sunsets over the lake.

She said that these properties around the lake are generational properties. People buy here and never leave. The acreage and lake frontage it has is rare, and it is rare to have a large private dock like this, said Ms. Reeves.

According to the listing, there are four other buildable lots included in the price. Parcel 7 is 0.58 acres and Parcel 8 is 0.58 acres.

The original owner built this as his forever home, and all the wood and other materials in the home were hand selected and hand crafted by the original owner, Ms. Reeves said.

These include hand-hewn Montana beams and logs, reclaimed wood floors, elk chandeliers, a hand-carved front door and interior columns, stone fireplaces and hunting trophies.

Ms. Reeves said that the home has a mountain retreat feel to it. It has a peaceful energy looking out on the lake. She said that you step right into the great room from the front door and foyer with a straight shot of the lake as soon as you enter the home.

Along with the open lake views, the open-plan great room has a bar, a large stone fireplace and vaulted ceilings.

There are two en suite bedrooms on the ground floor, including the primary suite, which has a large walk-in closet and a door to a back patio. The other bedroom has a patio with a separate entry.

The primary suite has beautiful views of the lake, according to Ms. Reeves. There are two more bedrooms upstairs, one of which is set up as a bunk room for the owner's grandchildren.

Cities that saw a huge pandemic price growth may be at risk if the recession hits.

The 4,956 square-foot house has four bedrooms and three bathrooms. It is situated on a 2.85 acre lot.

Amenities include two private beaches on 213 feet of private shoreline, a 1,100 plus-bottle humidity-controlled mahogany wine cellar, a heated three-car garage, a large private dock and three indoor fireplaces. There is also an outdoor living room with a fireplace, gardens, a bar, a covered stone patio, a barbecue area and a fire pit.

It is a 10 to 15-minute drive to downtown McCall which has a quaint hometown feel and a few iconic hotels, according to Ms. Reeves.

It is about 15 minutes to the Whitetail Club, which has a well-regarded golf course, 20 minutes to the Brundage Mountain Ski Resort and 35 minutes to the Tamarack ski resort, according to the listing.
