Elevated altitude equals an enlightened attitude in this timeless, custom-built home located just above the inversion line in a private, quiet community just minutes from downtown Wilson. Enjoy sweeping, ever-changing direct Grand Teton views with an ''airplane perspective'' from high above Jackson Hole where you can watch the shifting weather and dancing sunlight traverse the valley floor and surrounding mountains by day, while the twinkling lights of Wilson and Teton Village emerge in vivid clarity after sunset. Immersed in a landscape frequented by wildlife and home to a chorus of songbirds, this single-owner/builder retreat blends alpine serenity with exceptional craftsmanship and quality finishes. The warm timber-frame architecture and panel wall construction evoke a mountain lodge. Interior highlights include: Thermador professional appliances, custom cabinetry, subway tile backsplash, and black granite countertops in the kitchen; an efficient and flexible layout with wood flooring throughout, custom tile and heated floors in all baths, new wood flooring in bedrooms, stairs, and loft; a RAIS wood stove upstairs and high-efficiency gas stove on the lower level; the huge north-facing deck is ideal for lounging, gatherings, stargazing; the covered patio off the lower walk-out level is perfect for quiet mornings or evening wildlife viewing. Outside the home you will find pristine forest festooned with wildflowers and berry bushes, new walkways and enhanced site work, a new community water system and recently paved roads with exceptional maintenance, and direct access to the endless public lands just a few feet away.
