Mansfield! The chef’s kitchen boasts handcrafted cherry cabinets and a pantry that features a second fully-equipped kitchen! Through the sliding glass doors, you’ll find the screened-in porch, which is the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee while watching the sunrise over the mountains. In a separate wing off the living area are two nicely-sized bedrooms, a shared full bathroom and a wooden ladder that leads up to the cool loft space.
