Description
Discover exceptional mountain living and privacy at 647 Bench Road, an impressive 21-acre property located just 6 km from downtown Golden. Mostly forested and backing directly onto Crown land, this remarkable retreat offers spectacular views of Kicking Horse Mountain Resort and the Purcell Mountains, creating a truly private setting surrounded by nature. The well-appointed four-bedroom home features four ensuite bathrooms, beautiful wood floors, a convenient rear mudroom, and a new high-producing well. Year-round comfort is provided by a new heat pump with four air handlers, complemented by an outdoor wood boiler and propane backup boiler for those colder winter nights. The property is thoughtfully equipped for both personal enjoyment and future opportunities, including a new two-car garage with a heated workshop, carport, greenhouse, storage shed built around a sea can, and a fenced front yard ideal for dogs. The surrounding forest has been fire-smartened, adding an important level of preparation and peace of mind. Previously operated as a Bed & Breakfast, this property offers exciting potential for continued guest accommodation, expansion, or the addition of private cabins. A rare opportunity to own a substantial acreage with incredible mountain views, exceptional privacy, and convenient access to Golden. (id:63159)
