About the neighborhood
Somerset
This cottage places you next to Kooser State Park and within a 3 miles (5 km) of Laurel Hill State Park. The cottage includes a kitchen, a fireplace, and a balcony.
Sited high on a wooded cliff overlooking the valley below with a beautiful trout stream, this cottage is located in the heart of the Laurel Highlands, just minutes to Vail's Seven Springs and Hidden Valley Resorts; Walk to restaurant or cross country ski to neighboring State Park. Short scenic drive to Fallingwater and Rafting at Ohiopyle.
This mountain cottage is the former home of the manager of the neighboring ski resort, and has many luxury amenities. It has been recently renovated while retaining lots of mountain charm. The living room features a 2 story stone fireplace with knotty pine atrium ceiling, skylights, 2 mission style sofas, recliner, and Smart TV with free on-demand video and WiFi access.
The new kitchen features stainless steel appliances including a dishwasher, full sized refrigerator, smooth top oven, built-in microwave, and Cusineart coffee maker. A butcher block kitchen island seats 2 for informal dining, while the adjoining dining area with handmade rustic lighting fixtures seats 6. The dining area has french doors which open up to a covered porch and outdoor eating area, providing a continuous indoor/outdoor seasonal living/dining area.
There are 3 bedrooms, all with knotty pine ceilings. A large master bedroom features a built in window seat and high-end, queen Sleep Number Mattress, with adjustable firmness to match your exact preference. Each of the 2 additional bedrooms sleep 2, with plenty of closet and dresser space and a half bath. Additionally there are 2 large sleeping sofas in the living room, and an inflatable mattress which can be used in the sunroom. The cottage sleeps 6 in bedrooms, but can accommodate up to 8 guests.
A top-of-the line LG Front load Laundry center provided further convenience. All plumbing and heating systems are new, with new bathroom fixtures, an efficient central heat pump for both heating and cooling, and individual room temperature controls. On a cold winters night, the stone fireplace with low maintenance gas firebox provides for additional heat and ambiance.
A big attraction of this property is the access to the outdoors. A large multi-level wrap around deck provides outdoor living space, and sits high above the bubbling trout stream in the valley below. The deck is built around a hemlock tree, which provides for pleasant summer shade. Huge rock outcroppings, mountain laurel, and ferns surround the property. Private trails provide access to a mountain spring and the stream, available for fishing (class 1 trout stream). The property is private, and backs to hundreds of acres of undeveloped mountain resort property. A trail leads directly to the adjoining state park, with lake, sand beach, and numerous hiking and picnic options.
A sun room provides a lovely place to enjoy the outdoors, even if the weather is not cooperative. It has heat and air conditioning and can act as a 4th bedroom via the inflatable mattress. With windows on 3 sides, rustic timber walls, and very a comfortable Lloyd Flanders Wicker set, it oozes with cottage charm!
Area attractions include ski and golf resorts, upscale winery (10 minutes), Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater, White Water Rafting, Amusement Parks, and biking. Additionally, the neighboring resorts offer restaurants, spas, concerts, and summer day camps.
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 1.5 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker. Limited housekeeping is available.
