Attention skiers, investors and lovers of the unique, we welcome you to Bella Vista, an exceptional opportunity just three minutes from Belleayre Mountain. It is steeped in history, set on the grounds of a gilded era estate full of limitless potential. Ample in size but cozy in feeling, the house, extensively renovated in 2011, is both comfortable and elegant, with high end finishes and special touches. You will love the open flow of the main level, with its abundance of natural light and high ceilings. The living room features a beautiful and efficient Tulikivi soapstone wood stove with a pizza oven, a true conversation piece that offers both utility and deliciousness. The generous living space flows into the gourmet chef's kitchen, a dream to cook in. This house is also an entertainer's delight, with plenty of room for gracious dinner parties or movie nights. Imagine guests flowing in and out of the multiple living spaces and on the stunning wraparound porch, or throughout the property. But there are also many cozy nooks for your own relaxation and quiet enjoyment, along with no shortage for excellent work-from-home office spots. As you wander around dreaming about the possibilities, you will notice some of the original details from an earlier boarding house that had burned down, including stonework, fireplaces in the two downstairs parlors, and a marvelous balcony off of the gorgeous primary bedroom suite that you will never want to leave, en suite and with a cozy living space. Walking about the property's vast 5.7 acres, you will come across all kinds of surprises requiring various levels of repair, including a guest house, garage, two tennis courts, swimming pool, pool house, and two pump houses. A sense of history pervades the property of Bella Vista, along with the potential of what could be. Do not miss this rare opportunity to own a true estate right across from Belleayre Mountain. The chandelier above the dining table is not included in the sale.
