Property Description

This beautiful mountain property is nestled in the pines of the Collegiate Peaks and borders the San Isabel National Forest and open space on three sides of the property. The interior features breathtaking two-story vaulted wood ceilings and an inviting open loft area. This mountain contemporary home has an open-concept living area with a beautiful stone gas fireplace, a dining area, and a kitchen with bar seating. A recently refreshed interior and updated bathrooms creates a bright, open, and welcoming feel. The kitchen has ample storage and plenty of counter space. Two en-suite bedrooms allow for comfortable main-level living. At the top of the stairs leading to the loft, a built-in seating area offers the perfect spot for reading while taking in expansive mountain views. In addition to two bedrooms with natural light and a spacious, updated three-quarter bathroom, the loft provides ample space for an office or relaxation area. The basement level includes a large gear storage area, a large laundry room, and access to the attached two-car garage.

Outside, a huge wrap-around deck is perfect for enjoying the fresh mountain air and local wildlife. The home includes four bedrooms, three bathrooms, significant storage, and a naturally wooded lot that offers exceptional peace and quiet. From the property, you can directly access numerous trail systems leading into the high alpine terrain, the Colorado Trail and direct National Forest Access from the property. The sale also includes a 10ft x 20ft lofted shed for your outdoor equipment.

Located in the Trail West community of Buena Vista at the end of a quite cul-de-sac, just minutes away from downtown Buena Vista, Mt. Princeton, Cottonwood, and Charlotte Hot Springs. You will also enjoy direct access to local hiking, restaurants, shopping, fishing, and world-class rafting, skiing, and snowmobiling. The home is only 45 minutes from Monarch Resort and Ski Cooper, and 75 minutes from Breckenridge.
