Description

This spectacular view home is located in one of the Eastern Sierra's best kept secret locations Virginia Lakes. At only 9 miles (as the crow flies) from Yosemite National Park and about 35 miles drive to Yosemites Tioga Pass Entrance, living at 268 Summit Drive is almost like being in the park itself. The home has been recently fortified with new concrete footings and plated with Hardee Board siding. The original architecture and recent upgrades make this home feel like a natural extension of the rugged terrain where it is perched. This is a great home for off the grid living, because it comes equipped with a 1200-gallon, indoor, freeze-resistant water tank, solar panels, and a battery bank. Additionally, there is a spacious basement area (not included in the square footage) that could be converted into an office/art studio or used to warehouse supplies. There is a beautiful stone fireplace in the living room and a wood-burning stove downstairs in the master bedroom. Cedar interior siding along with the exposed vaulted ceilings create a warm and rich interior. Because it is perched at a higher elevation than many of the other homes in the Virginia Lakes area, 268 Summit Drive receives an excellent cell phone and internet signal and enjoys awe-inspiring views and remarkable star gazing opportunities. Furthermore, you can enjoy some of the worlds best backcountry skiing, hiking, and fishing right outside your front door. For an outdoor adventurer or nature lover, it doesnt get any better!
