Introducing a majestic mountain lodge on 10 acres of land bordering both sides of the Elk River, a haven for trout fishing enthusiasts. Boasting over 7000 square feet of rustic elegance, this retreat offers six-bedroom suites plus a large bunk room with eight beds. The grandeur of the great room with its two-story stone fireplace is stunning and at the same time, a welcoming space. Culinary delights await in the expansive gourmet kitchen accompanied by a butler’s pantry equipped with a commercial refrigerator, separate freezer and an extra dishwasher, seamlessly catering to your every need. One of two laundries is adjacent to the pantry, ensuring effortless convenience. A primary suite is on the main level with two guest suites on the second level at either end of the loft library. Downstairs are three more guest suites and a full kitchen in the large family/bunk room. Experience unparalleled outdoor living on the sprawling 1,700-square-foot upper deck, complete with a full kitchen, large stone wood-burning fireplace and a rejuvenating hot tub. Enveloped by the soothing sounds of nature, a firepit area beckons along a winding path. Additional highlights include an oversized two-car garage with a large laundry in the back room and a charming apartment on the second floor. This home is crafted from laminated white pine logs, renowned for their superior construction that resists shrinkage and checking and is energy efficient. Resting on a solid pour foundation, every detail reflects meticulous craftsmanship and enduring quality. Embrace the epitome of luxury living in this exquisite sanctuary where every detail is crafted to perfection. This magnificent property operates as a bed and breakfast but would make a terrific private residence for a large family or perhaps a fractional with several owners. Please note there is a discrepancy between the professional measurements and tax records for total heated square footage.
