About the Listing IGEXP02 - EVKINGBRA
Perched among the trees in sought-after Moonridge, this one-of-a-kind “Tree of Life” retreat is far more than a cabin—it’s an enchanted artistic and writer’s retreat, a living work of art. This 2-bedroom with a loft, 2-bath artisan-crafted home offers a rare blend of architectural beauty, natural surroundings, and unforgettable views of the lake and ski slopes, all just minutes from Bear Mountain.

Custom woodwork, intricate glass details, and curated artistic elements are thoughtfully woven throughout, highlighted by the stunning “Tree of Life” mosaic—an irreplaceable centerpiece that defines the home’s character.
