Some homes check boxes -- this one rewrites the list entirely. Set on 4.85 private acres with a year-round creek and backing directly to 2 million acres of National Forest, this fully custom 2,000 SF modern-mountain retreat (completed in 2025) is the kind of property buyers search for years and never find. No HOA. Just pure, private, four-season mountain living with direct forest access from your own gate. Designed with clean modern lines and warm rustic character, the home feels purpose-built for its setting. Oversized windows bring the forest into nearly every room, while solid alder doors, laminate wood flooring, and thoughtful architectural details create a seamless blend of comfort and sophistication. The great room centers around a wood-burning stove and panoramic forest views. The chef's kitchen features an 8-burner gas range, double ovens, built-in convertible refrigerator/freezer columns, granite countertops, custom cabinetry, a wine fridge, RO water filtration, a massive island with built-in ice maker, and a large walk-in pantry. A formal dining room surrounded by windows sits just off the kitchen. The primary suite is a true retreat with heated bathroom floors, dual vanities, a large walk-in shower, and private deck access to a six-person spa overlooking the forest. The suite also includes a large walk-in closet with an attached laundry room for added convenience. Step outside to the expansive National Forest-facing deck, complete with an outdoor kitchen area -- perfect for entertaining or relaxing in total privacy. Security and comfort are built in. The property is fully fenced with a six-foot black chain-link perimeter, a remote-control entry gate, and full exterior camera coverage. This is a fully integrated smart home with mini-split climate control in every room, Starlink high-speed internet, whole-home water filtration, and spray-foam insulation for exceptional energy efficiency. The oversized 3-car garage includes insulated roll-up doors (one with 12'6" clearance), a 50-amp EV outlet, and a utility sink. Exterior features include full RV hookups, Trex decking, and low-maintenance gravel landscaping. The large basement includes a two-room safe-room system: *Upper safe room with hidden-door access, ideal for a visitor bedroom, media room, office, or flexible use, & * Lower safe room serving as a pantry and storage area, with a direct steel-door connection to the rest of the basement Additional basement space includes a partially concrete-floored storage area perfect for UTVs, kayaks, bikes, and gear, plus an exterior wide door for easy loading. Despite its secluded feel, the home is only 10-15 minutes from shops, dining, and the hospital. Located in the heart of the White Mountains, with 400+ miles of trails, world-class trout fishing, kayaking, OHV riding, horseback riding, skiing at Sunrise Park Resort, and championship golf -- all surrounded by the largest Ponderosa pine forest in the world. This is more than a home -- it's a private mountain sanctuary and a rare opportunity to live where others come to escape.
