FORBIDDEN PLATEAU A-FRAME RETREAT – BUILT TO LAST, DESIGNED FOR COMFORT Welcome to your mountain escape on legendary Forbidden Plateau — named for a rich history of myth and mystery, where local First Nations warned early settlers the area was “forbidden” due to supernatural spirits. Now, it’s a paradise for outdoor lovers, with world-class biking, hiking, and snowshoe trails at your doorstep. This .35-acre alpine haven features a meticulously engineered A-frame home designed to far exceed building codes in structure, seismic safety, and energy efficiency. From a foundation reinforced with 5/8'' rebar and 30MPA concrete to triple-pane Euroline windows and R50 insulation, no detail has been spared. Enjoy Schluter heated tile floors, soundproofed upper/lower suites, and high-end appliances including Bosch, Kalia, and Blaze King. The custom cedar siding in stunning Shou Sugi Ban — pairs beautifully with decks framed in old-growth yellow cedar. Starlink internet, a new septic system, drilled well, HRV, hot water on demand, and low utilities make full-time or part-time living effortless. The lower suite offers income potential with Airbnb permitted, separate access, and premium finishings. Whether you're seeking a peaceful retreat, a luxury base for adventure, or a high-quality income property — this cabin is truly unforgettable. (id:48643)
