Alpenglade Custom Cedar Home             Mt. Hood Ski Home for Sale

I love the great room which has massive vaulted cedar ceilings and a wall of windows bringing in natural light. A cozy fireplace, a breakfast bar surrounding the island of the kitchen, a huge covered deck off the living room-perfect for summer barbecues, makes this the perfect home for entertaining and large groups of friends and family after a day at the slopes of near by ski areas. 

Kids can watch movies in the family room or hit ping pong balls in the game room tucked away downstairs. Lots of storage throughout the home for mountain play gear. A huge three car tandem garage with heated floors, a fan for ski tune ups and hot and cold water faucets. 

It's energy tight with many features including ICF, Insulated Concrete Form construction on exterior walls. Vinyl double pane windows, extra foam insulation in the attic, and a boiler and heat exchange system. Radiant zonal heat is in the floors and the garage.

The kitchen is a dream. Open to the dining and living room area, there is a massive island with a huge breakfast bar and granite counter tops throughout the entire kitchen. Two ovens, two dishwashers, a wine bar, a wine frig and wet bar sink, tons of prep area, stainless steel appliances, gas stove  and cherry cabinetry. 

Take a tour of this fantastic Mt. Hood Alpenglade home!

Here is a great run down of what La Nina means to locals and Portland folk who visit the mountain.
