5811 Irish Pat Murphy Drive

The only thing original left to fall in love with is the location. Bright and vaulted, this home sits on park-like grounds near Bingham Lake in The Pinery, surrounded by mature pine and aspen. It feels like the mountains, the wildlife and nature clearly agree, even though town and daily amenities are just minutes away. Behind that setting is a home that's been reimagined top to bottom, with over $250,000 in improvements including a full kitchen remodel, updated bathrooms, new flooring, and a new roof, windows, boiler, deck, and porch. The kitchen is a showstopper, the kind design magazines get jealous of. Knotty alder cabinetry meets white quartz and herringbone tile. An 8-foot bi-fold window swings wide, and suddenly there's no line between cooking and being outside. Skylights and clerestory windows, with automatic blinds, fill the vaulted, fourteen-foot ceilings with light. A sunroom-style living room, with a wood-burning stove inset, opens to the back patio and hot tub, and downstairs, a finished lower level adds a recreation space with a custom penny-topped bar. The primary suite features an eighteen-foot vaulted ceiling, clerestory windows, a walk-in closet, and an en-suite bath. Two additional bedrooms reside on the upper level, plus one bedroom off of the family room currently used as an office. Outside, a new Trex deck wraps the back of the house, anchored by a built-in stone grill and gas fire pit. The hot tub sits at the far end, private and framed by pine, while a stone water feature trickles nearby. Out front, a gated porch offers its own quiet corner for morning coffee before the day gets loud. The fenced backyard includes a dog run and a storage shed with electricity and a custom built-in work bench. The Pinery's trails, lake, parks, and open space are minutes away. The renovation is done. The setting is permanent. All that's missing is you.
