About this property

Let's get one thing straightened right out - 5896 State Route 167 is not here to be subtle. This is not your polite, well-behaved, cookie-cutter ranch quietly blending into the background. This is the home that raises an eyebrow, pours a drink, and says, "Oh, you thought you'd seen it all?" With almost 1,600 of tastefully remodeled square feet spread across one easy-living level, this place doesn't just live well - it performs. Big, open, light-drenched spaces set the stage for the kind of gatherings that start as "just a few people" and somehow turn into legendary nights. And when the crowd clears? It shifts effortlessly into something quieter, more intimate - your own personal retreat tucked neatly within all that energy. Now let's talk about the kitchen... because WOW. This is not a "nice kitchen." This is a cancel your dinner reservations kitchen. Acres of prep space, shiny new appliances, acres of beautiful quartz just begging for that charcuterie platter and cool custom touches like bespoke open shelving. Morning routines? Upgraded. Midnight snacks? Elevated. The vibe carries right into the dining space - easy open flow, great natural lighting, and pastoral views that make you accidentally linger at the table way longer than planned. The whole space is dramatic in the best way, without trying too hard. And here's where it really separates itself from the pack: this home has a point of view. Unique arched niche walls. Custom built-ins that turn everyday routines into something just a little more enjoyable. Finishes and materials that feel curated, intentional - never builder-grade, never boring. This is a home that cares how it feels to live here. And cares about your time - not a finger shall be lifted as all the big ticket items are done: kitchen, baths, refinished hardwoods, roof, well, leach, electrical, plumbing, windows, decks, paint and lighting. WOW. Outside? You get that rare combo - surrounded by homes of similar caliber, giving you that polished, cohesive neighborhood feel, while still feeling like you've carved out your own little world. Peaceful when want it, connected when you need it. No compromises. And sure - the value is strong. Very strong. But honestly? That's not the headline. The headline is the life you're about to live here. Big dinners. Loud laughs. Slow mornings. Quiet corners. The kind of everyday moments that sneak up on you and become the ones you remember most. 5896 State Route 167 doesn't just check boxes. It changes the standard.

    Questions to ask before you buy

    Good questions for any home near the slopes.

    1. How is the property reached in winter, and who plows the road and driveway?A short straight-line distance can still mean a long or seasonal drive. Private roads, gates and mountain passes all shape winter access.
    2. Is there documented ski access from the property (trail, easement, lift), and does it transfer to a buyer?Rights to cross neighboring land or use a lift come from recorded easements and agreements, so a ski-in or ski-out description is where the question starts.
    3. Are there association, resort or club fees, and what do they cover?Some ski-area communities charge fees that cover only certain amenities, so ask what lift tickets, passes and services are included.
    4. Are there rules on renting the home short-term or long-term?Local ordinances, association covenants and deed restrictions all set rental rules, and they differ from place to place.
    5. What do heating, snow removal, winterization and utilities cost over a season?Ownership costs in snow country often run higher than the mortgage estimate suggests.
    6. For land: is there legal year-round access, and what utilities, septic and building rules apply?Seasonal roads and steep lots can limit what can be built and when it can be reached.
