Nestled on 1.11 acres adjoining the Black Hills National Forest, this contemporary lodge-style retreat blends privacy, craftsmanship, and timeless character. Surrounded by pines, gardens, and natural granite boulders, it feels secluded yet lies only 15 minutes from Rapid City in the welcoming community of Johnson Siding, within walking distance of Rimrock Church, the community center, and a local tavern. Inside, soaring vaulted wood ceilings, exposed beams, and stone fireplaces create an atmosphere of warmth and understated grandeur. Expansive windows draw the outdoors in, illuminating a thoughtful floor plan with 4 bedrooms (1 ntc), 2 distinct living spaces, and 2,600 sq ft. The open-concept, main-level great room flows onto an expansive freshly refinished deck, ideal for entertaining or quiet evenings listening to the wind in the pines. A lower-level family room provides additional living space and opens to the surrounding landscape. The expansive kitchen with breakfast bar anchors the main living space, offering an inviting spot for breakfasts or gathering with friends after a day in the hills. Modern improvements include a new roof, mini-split HVAC, and dual laundry hookups. The freshly refinished wraparound deck invites quiet reflection or gatherings beneath the pines, while attached and detached garages, workshops, and RV parking potential offer exceptional versatility. Distinctive architectural details, believed to be salvaged from a historic Deadwood landmark, add a whisper of history and authenticity. Immersed in nature yet close to town, this property offers refined mountain living just minutes from Rapid Creek, Mount Rushmore, and the very heart of the Black Hills.
