Nestled in the serene foothills of the Sierra Nevadas, this exceptional mountain retreat offers a peaceful sanctuary just 25 miles from Yosemite National Park. Set on 12 private acres, this one-of-a-kind home blends nature, comfort, and tranquility for guests seeking a rejuvenating getaway. With sweeping mountain views, nearby waterfalls, and four-season beauty, it’s the perfect destination for families, couples, and adventure-seekers alike.
The surrounding area is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts. Just a short walk from the property lies Whiskey Falls, a spectacular, cascading waterfall beloved by locals for its scenic beauty and hidden swimming holes. Numerous nearby hiking and biking trails wind through the forests and mountains, offering immersive ways to explore the natural landscape. In winter, the elevation of 3,400 feet allows guests to enjoy the crisp mountain air and occasional snowfall, while the warmer months bring lush greenery and sunshine.
Inside, the home is filled with light and warmth. The main living space is designed for comfort and connection, with a wood-burning stove and fireplace anchoring a large open area perfect for relaxing with family or friends. Adjacent to the living room is a spacious dining area and a well-stocked kitchen complete with modern appliances and everything needed to prepare meals together.
The ground-floor main suite features an en-suite bath with a luxurious jetted tub and a walk-in shower that offers breathtaking mountain views. This private retreat also provides direct access to a sunroom—ideal for quiet mornings with a cup of coffee or a good book. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms and a full bathroom provide ample space for guests, along with a cozy loft-style sitting area that invites conversation or quiet relaxation.
The sunroom opens to two expansive decks that showcase the home's most stunning feature—its connection to nature. The upper deck is furnished for al fresco dining or late-night stargazing, complete with a telescope to fully appreciate the clear mountain skies. The lower deck features hammocks, egg chairs, and an open area perfect for yoga, meditation, or simply soaking in the panoramic views.
Children will find endless entertainment with the home's custom-built playground, which includes a trampoline, swings, a sandbox with toys, and forest swings tucked among the trees. Inside, a dedicated play area offers books, crafts, and toys to keep young minds engaged. Families will find this mountain home not only beautiful but incredibly family-friendly and fun.
