117 Vintin Road Carlton, WA 98814

117 Vintin Rd is a tranquil retreat with room for your projects and all the infrastructure needed for practical country living. A remarkable property at any price, this is a truly stunning opportunity for a gorgeous, move-in ready property in the Methow Valley.

Tucked in the rolling hills, the home is perfectly situated for both privacy and views. To the left of the home, a well-built yet artistic outbuilding holds a green-house type space on one side and an artist/craft space on the other. Rustic inside, but solid in structure and full of character, it holds abundant possibility for other uses - office? bunkhouse? ADU?

Carefully tended but mostly natural rounds offer a variety of spaces for gathering, such as the picnic/bbq space near the seasonal/occasional pond. This natural pond fills up sometimes, and at other times makes a great space for lawn games!

Mature gardens carefully maintained evolve in color and tone through the seasons. Pictures will be updated as spring progresses!

Beyond the manicured grounds around the house, the property extends through native sage-steppe and open pine forest habitats (and also includes a significant stretch of Vintin Creek).

Even the natural landscape portions of the property have been thoughtfully tended and the promise of vistas beckons one to follow the winding trail through the pine grove.

One of many spots from which to soak in the Methow Valley vistas.

The only hard decision is where to sit...

With artfully sculpted pines and massive boulders, it's the laid-back nature-lover's version of a grand entrance.

Artistic details from the hand-carved doors to the hand rail carved in the form of an extended hand... the love and artistry poured into the creation of this home is layers deep.

It can be difficult to decide, here, whether to go in or out because both are lovely and they compliment each other so well. The main entry hall is expansive and welcoming with practical stone floors and an immediate pull into the great room beyond.

A practical open kitchen sits at the heart of the home with a custom island, large walk-in pantry and the coolest countertops. To the left, the main entry with a hallway beyond that leads to the primary bedroom, studio apartment, and garage. To the right, a flex space that makes an ideal reading area, office, or even extra sleeping space with a 3/4 bath and access to the daylight basement.

Massive beams and river rock fireplace create a warm and welcoming space in the main living area, which actually feels even larger in person than it appears in photographs!

Gather round the massive fireplace - wood burning, but with a propane starter.

The best seat in the house - take the challenge; can you focus on a book or will your gaze keep drifting outward?

Imagine the changing view from this window through changing seasons and all types of weather....

A custom island with propane range, copper countertop around the sink and a large buttler's pantry make this compact kitchen efficient, functional and a delight to be in!

There is a unique and gorgeous view from this home whatever direction you are facing, like this one of the snowcapped Sawtooth Mountains from the kitchen.

Wake up to this view! The primary suite includes a propane fireplace and french doors to a private porch steps away from the hot tub.

Custom built-ins offer plenty of storage in the primary suite walk-in closet

The delightful surprises keep coming, like this copper-wrapped shower in the primary suite.

A second room on the other side of the primary bath is intended as a private sitting room or office and includes additional built in storage.

Conveniently located between the primary suite and the studio apartment, this space functions like a mudroom at the top of the stairs from teh garage - lots of storage here as well as an under-counter laundry area.

Fully independent studio apartment with full kitchen, full bath, free-standing propane stove, private entrance and two private porches.

Full bathroom in the studio apartment with custom wood and tile details.

Off the kitchen, this versatile space can be office, library, or even additional sleeping space. The daylight basement is accessed through this room.

3/4 bath. The artistic touches are not neglected in any room of this home.

Daylight basement stays cool during the heat of summer. French doors access teh garden. Limited windows make this a great media room.

Huge porch off the kitchen overlooks the gardens.

South-facing porch from which to soak up the sun during the winter months.

Pause awhile on this porch swing beside the private entrance to the studio apartment.

Hot tub with up-valley views is in a lovely setting at any time and particularly dramatic during meteor and aurora events!

A summer view of the garden when it errupts in a wealth of color and fragrance.

Overlooking the garden, this well-built structure is just waiting for your creative ideas.

Practical two-car garage with floor drain and so much storage.

The large shop is heated (wood stove), insulated, plumbed... lots of power. Large upstairs storage area and two smaller side craft rooms, as well as lean-to's on each long side... a craftsman's dream.

117 Vintin Rd is at the bottom of this photo with the approximate property lines (where not hidden by hills) shown in red. A bit slower and quieter than the towns further up-valley, Carlton is nestled by the river below the dramatic Sawtooth Mountains. If you are looking for peace and quiet in a beautiful landscape, you won't find it's match with this level of infrastructure elsewhere.
