This chalet-style home would be ideal for a recreational property in the mountains. With its separate master bedroom suite, it could even function as a bed and breakfast. The spacious master bedroom is located above the garage and has its own private balcony.

A sloping ceiling gives the room a touch of old world character. An adjacent bathroom comes with both a relaxing soaker tub and a shower. Views to the great outdoors can be enjoyed from all sides of this unique home.

Vaulted ceilings in the kitchen, great room and dining room also add to the feeling of openness. The contemporary kitchen is well-designed for several cooks to work at once. There are two areas of entry and good counter and cupboard space.

A large breakfast bar and work island can be used to store small appliances. A generous pantry cupboard holds food and dry goods. Depending on family needs, the kitchen could have a computer desk or a telephone centre.

Other optional built-ins with this home plan include a buffet in the dining area and a corner bookcase in the great room. The two bedrooms on the main floor are well-sized and have easy access to the home’s main three-piece bathroom. The study has been designed with a closet, so it can also function as a bedroom.

A centrally-located laundry room opens to the garage and offers good storage for boots and coats. The garage itself will be a treat for any hobby enthusiast. It’s got enough space for a full workshop in addition to two full-size vehicles.

The house is 50 feet, 10 inches wide and 67 feet, 10 inches deep with 2164 square feet of finished living space and comes with an unfinished basement.
