Listed by Rich Hegre of Engel & Volkers Black Hills. 605-381-RICH(7424). Morning coffee on the deck, elk in the meadow, and quiet pine-covered hills in every direction-this is the kind of Black Hills living people dream about. Nestled in the heart of the Black Hills just off Rochford Road, this beautiful 1.5-story home offers peaceful mountain living on just over an acre of rolling hills surrounded by pine, birch, and aspen trees. The open floor plan features soaring 16 foot, pine covered ceilings, a large stone gas fireplace, and a loft overlooking the living, dining, and kitchen areas. (We'll even leave our 12 foot Christmas tree!) The loft includes a spacious bedroom, full bathroom, and large windows showcasing stunning mountain views in both directions. An oversized bonus room above the garage-currently used as a craft and quilting studio-offers lots of natural light and space for hobbies, office, or guest accommodations. The main floor includes two spacious bedrooms, both with large walk-in closets, and two bathrooms. The primary bathroom features a relaxing garden tub. Enjoy expansive views from the large deck or front porch overlooking meadows and mountains often visited by deer, turkeys, elk, and other wildlife. The property also includes an oversized two-car garage with workshop space, chicken coop with outdoor run, and an enclosed raised-bed garden protected from hail. Located just 5 miles from the Mickelson Trail, less than 10 minutes from Roubaix and Pactola Lakes, and about 30 minutes to Rapid City, Hill City, and Deadwood. The loft windows give beautiful mountain views in both directions, and the natural light in the craft room above the garage has made it a wonderful space for creativity and projects. This is a true Black Hills gem!! Schedule your private tour today.
