| Description: |
This is a special home in an amazing location. We are right at the base of Teton Pass, 2 miles east of Victor, Idaho and 18 miles west of Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Our property has stunning western views across the Teton Valley to the Big Hole Mountains. Just north of our property is the Targhee National Forest and then Grand Teton National Park. Our neighbors are the wildlife of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. Some of the best back-country skiing and biking ANYWHERE is just up the road on Teton Pass.I own a small construction company that specializes in building timberframe homes... www.tetontimberframe.com. We build beautiful, durable, energy efficient homes and this is one of the best we've ever built. It will be an heirloom for many generations, consuming little energy and requiring little maintenance.We built our home in 2006 and divided it into two areas. The ground floor is a large, bright apartment with a separate entrance. It rents for $800/month. The two-story, two-bedroom timberframe home above is a delight to live in. It exudes strength and elegance, while remaining comfortable and inviting. The master bedroom is behind the Tulikivi masonry heater on the main floor and has an en-suite bathroom. The large loft contains an office and an excercise / media room which could easily be finished into another bedroom with attached 3/4 bath already finished. There is an attached two-car garage with a large attic above for storage.Here are some relevant statistics:- Our home sits on 2.5 acres in Game Creek Canyon, 2 miles east of Victor, ID.- We're not in a subdivision (no covenants or HOA dues)- 3,400 square feet of living space- 1,400 SF apartment on the ground floor rents for $800/month- attached 2 car garage with 676 SF of storage above- 3 bedrooms (with the potential for 4)- 3-1/2 baths- hand-crafted timberframe cut from reclaimed timbers- energy efficient foam core wall and roof panels (SIPS)- double- and triple-glazed Loewen windows- Tulikivi masonry heater and bake-oven- radiant hydronic heat in the basement and main floor slabs- electric boiler and water heater- Heat Recovery Ventilation system- 600 gallon propane tank (presently just for the gas range but could fire a larger water heater if desired)- well on lower lot provides 25 gallons per minute- septic system is designed for 4 bedrooms- 6 person hot tub on 450 SF deck with great views of the Big Hole MountainsPlease call or write for more information or to schedule a visit. |
