A Mountain Masterpiece Where Luxury Meets Self-Sufficiency
This isn't just a home-it's a calling. This architect-designed, custom-engineered mountain retreat on 35+ private acres with no HOA blends bold self-reliance with refined comfort. Featuring 3 bedrooms and 3 baths-including a luxurious master ensuite-this home impresses with soaring vaulted ceilings, rich hardwood floors, and a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. The gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream with granite counters, premium appliances, a Wolf range, and a dumbwaiter from the attached 2-car garage. Modern sustainability shines through with a 32-panel solar array, whole-house water filtration, and reverse osmosis system. The walk-out lower level includes a spacious family room, wet bar, third bedroom, steam shower, and opens to a covered patio complete with an outdoor Kiva fireplace-ideal for stargazing and serene Colorado nights. A detached 2-car garage and workshop provide ample space for projects or storage. Near San Isabel National Forest, world-class white water rafting, Gold Medal fishing, and Monarch Ski Area-adventure is always within reach. Schedule your private tour today!
