Inside, the welcoming ambiance continues. The main level features the signature Innsbrook A-frame design, with soaring ceilings and a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace that creates the perfect year-round gathering space. Unwind in the living room as natural light pours in, highlighting every beautiful detail.
The adjacent kitchen is fully stocked and thoughtfully designed for both cooking and socializing. Enjoy meals or game nights in the connected dining area. Also on the main level are two spacious bedrooms and a beautifully updated full bath with generous storage.
Upstairs, a large loft provides additional sleeping space along with another bedroom and a second full bath—making Tarnhouse ideal for families or groups.
