Set on 3.44 private acres framed by towering pines, this Highland Pines handcrafted log home delivers an elevated take on mountain luxury with true year-round practicality. The main level is designed for seamless living, where grand peeled-log beams, rich timber textures, and vaulted ceilings create a refined lodge presence. Oversized windows bring in natural light and long forest-and-ridgeline views, while the wood-burning fireplace anchors the great room with warmth and character. The remodeled hickory-and-granite kitchen opens to the dining and living spaces and is outfitted for serious cooking and hosting (gas cooktop, double ovens, and thoughtful prep flow), with easy indoor-outdoor connection to the wrap-style decking, screened porch, and hot tub under the stars.
With the primary suite and principal living areas on the main level, the home blends architectural drama with livability—supported by well-placed sleeping quarters, intuitive circulation, and additional loft space for flexible accommodations. A standout advantage is the private-entry lower level, offering a separate-use layout ideal for guests or a hosted-stay configuration (buyer to verify local STR requirements). The detached on-site “Bunkhouse” is a guest favorite and a rare amenity: custom bunk design with generous sleeping capacity, a private bath, and a convenient kitchenette—perfect for groups, overflow guests, or short-term rental appeal.
Outdoors, the property is built for experience: an elevated observation deck with limitless possibilities, volleyball and bocce courts, two zip lines, and a sledding hill carved through the pines. A whole-house Generac generator, RV hookup, workshop/garage utility, and additional storage reinforce dependable, lock-and-leave mountain living. With voluntary HOA participation, paved and plowed roads, and convenient access to groceries, dining, trails, and major Prescott employers, this is a high-function retreat that performs beautifully for personal use and potential income.
The owners have successfully operated the on-site Bunkhouse as a part-time short-term rental, reporting approximately $30,000/year gross at an average nightly rate around $250, supported by strong guest feedback and repeat demand. In addition, the main home also presents compelling short-term rental potential (buyer to verify STR requirements and performance). Seller-reported figures; not guaranteed.
