The upper level also offers a guest retreat with it's own second living space, the fourth bedroom, full bathroom, and even plumbed for a future second kitchen. This adaptable space was created to suite your needs, whether it's multigenerational living, an executive office, or a second living quarters. The lifestyle extends well beyond the main living spaces. The entire lower level is designed for expansive wellness, recreation, and entertaining. A spa suite centers around an expansive two-tier steam room with seating for 8+, a generous shower, and direct access to an outdoor fitness deck. The deck is designed for a future hot tub and sauna, creating the foundation for a personal indoor-outdoor wellness experience. A 1000+ SF reinforced all-concrete safe room with vault door access plus adjacent unfinished space designed to accommodate a future gun room/gun storage and shooting range. A bonus space for a theater and game room (wired for surround sound) provides a dedicated setting for movies, gaming, or lounging. Whether the priority is entertaining, wellness, hobbies, extended stays, or simply having room to retreat, the lower level is designed to accommodate it. Outside, teak exterior decking extends the living experience into the mountain setting, while the four-car garage provides ample space for vehicles, outdoor gear, recreational equipment, or a workshop. Thoughtful design and infrastructure continue throughout the home, supporting a lifestyle that is as effortless as it is distinctive. For those drawn to mountain living but unwilling to trade away convenience, privacy, or individuality, Ridgemont offers a compelling alternative to the traditional country-club atmosphere. Here, the amenities are yours, the land is yours, and the lifestyle is yours to define—all within minutes of Boone.
