Nestled among the towering pines of prestigious Ponderosa Estates, this exceptional custom-built 3,285-square-foot residence offers the rare feeling of living in a peaceful mountain forest while enjoying all the conveniences of Los Alamos. Situated on more than 0.3 acres, this thoughtfully designed home features 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, radiant in-floor heating, a three-car garage, and multiple indoor and outdoor living spaces that embrace the beauty of its serene surroundings. Step through the front door into an impressive foyer where soaring cathedral ceilings and a striking staircase create an unforgettable first impression. The front living room is both elegant and inviting, anchored by a beautiful stone fireplace and warm wood flooring that flows into the formal dining room. Framed by large windows overlooking the surrounding forest and illuminated by a classic chandelier, this welcoming space is perfectly suited for memorable holiday gatherings and special occasions. Designed to be the heart of the home, the kitchen was recently updated and offers generous cabinetry and expansive counter space, a center island with a gas cooktop and downdraft vent, a stylish glass subway tile backsplash, and windows above the sink that bring the tranquil forest views indoors. Just beyond, the comfortable family room features a second fireplace and opens seamlessly onto the expansive deck, creating an effortless connection between indoor comfort and outdoor living. The main level also includes a flexible room ideal as a home office, library, or fifth bedroom, along with a three-quarter bathroom and a spacious laundry room. The lower level provides an exceptional bonus living area complete with a full bathroom and direct access to the lower deck. Whether used as guest quarters, a recreation room, a home gym, or multi-generational living space, this private retreat offers outstanding flexibility. Upstairs, the bedroom wing has been thoughtfully designed for comfort and privacy. Two guest bedrooms and an oversized third guest bedroom—with its own sitting area or study—are served by a well-appointed full bathroom. The spacious primary suite provides a true retreat, featuring a spa-inspired bathroom with dual vanities, a jetted soaking tub, and a separate travertine stone-tiled shower. Outside, the home truly comes into its own. Multiple flagstone patios, an expansive deck, and a private hot tub invite you to relax beneath the towering pines while enjoying the peaceful sights and sounds of the surrounding forest. Whether you're entertaining friends, sipping your morning coffee, or unwinding beneath a canopy of stars, this remarkable outdoor setting offers a level of tranquility that's increasingly rare to find. Adding even greater peace of mind, the stucco and metal roof have been recently updated, and a new concrete driveway was poured last year, allowing the next owner to simply move in and enjoy this exceptional home. Combining timeless craftsmanship, flexible living spaces, and an unmatched forest setting, this extraordinary Ponderosa Estates home offers a lifestyle as remarkable as its surroundings.
