Description
Where Mt Antero rises into open sky, this 46.94-acre sanctuary adjoins the National Forest and unfolds as a private mountain escape in central Colorado. The land moves at a quieter rhythm--high meadow grasses ripple in the wind, elk and deer cross open fields, and a seasonal ravine carries snowmelt through the property. Each walk reveals wildflowers, shifting light, and distant Sangre de Cristo peaks. At its heart, a 3,594 SF craftsman-style home is set to embrace the setting while offering three levels of flexible living for full-time use or retreat. An enclosed foyer provides a practical mountain entry with storage, easing the transition indoors. Vaulted ceilings, log handrails, and timber accents create a lodge feel anchored by a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. The great room offers built-in shelving, a desk nook, and large windows framing forest, meadow, and peaks. The kitchen and dining area enjoy sweeping views, where daily life is shaped by sunrise, storms, and seasons. The main level includes a den that can serve as a bedroom, an office, a laundry, and a full bath. Upstairs, a spacious bedroom with a three-quarter bath plus a flexible bonus space for reading or work. The walk-out lower level adds a wet bar, family room, two bedrooms, and a lovely bath, adaptable for guests, fitness, or studio use. Outdoor living extends with a lower patio, side terrace with stone fireplace and bistro lights, a treehouse, and a seasonal stream. An attached one-car garage and shed provide utility, with room for expansion. High-speed internet and a voluntary road association support year-round access to this rare mountain retreat. A sense of permanence and quiet belonging runs through the property, where each season reshapes the view, and the land feels both expansive and intimate. It is a place to gather, reflect, and live in rhythm with the mountains, offering a rare blend of privacy, connection to nature, and enduring mountain craftsmanship in a truly unforgettable setting.
