Spectacular Views! Comfortable, Spacious, Family Friendly Home-3 bedroom, 3 bath
This Alpine retreat is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the outdoors. It offers sweeping, in-your-face views of the Cimarrons to the east and 13-14,000 peaks of the San Juan range to the south.
The home is perfect for families, couples, or groups of friends. It includes 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a great room, a game room, and a dining room spread over two stories. Upstairs offers expansive views and includes a master bedroom, kitchen, and great room. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to cook your favorite meals, including pots, pans, dishes, utensils, and appliances. It is well-provisioned with non-perishables, including quality spices/seasonings, cooking oil, sugar, and flour. The large deck offers stunning views of the mountains and is perfect for enjoying a morning cup of coffee, afternoon barbeque, or a glass of wine at sunset.
Downstairs includes 2 bedrooms, a well-stocked game room, and a full bath. A washer and dryer are in a separate laundry room. All bedrooms are equipped with humidifiers to help ensure your comfort in the dry mountain air.
The home is in a quiet neighborhood, just minutes from hiking and off-road trails. While secluded, it is readily accessible to the valley below. Downtown Ridgway has restaurants, shops, and groceries and is about 8 miles (20 minutes) on a well-maintained dirt and gravel road. Charming Ouray is a 30-minute drive through the spectacular Uncompahgre River valley.
You will feel like you are on top of the world. If you are lucky, you’ll see an afternoon shower, followed by clouds in the valley below and a double rainbow! At 8,900 feet elevation, the home offers breathtaking alpine beauty, ample groves of Aspens, and abundant wildlife. You will likely see plenty of deer, including those visiting in the front yard. You may also see bobcats, bald eagles, coyotes, elk, or even glimpse a black bear. In the quiet of the mountains, you may connect with the gentle sounds of nature and, on a clear night, see the night sky in all its wonder.
The house is heated by an electric-powered hydronic radiant heating system, which is both efficient and environmentally friendly. The electricity for the heating system is generated by solar panels on the roof, so you can feel good knowing that you're helping to reduce your carbon footprint on your vacation. The house is super well insulated and was constructed using green building practices, such as using recycled materials and energy-efficient appliances.
This is a unique and magical place! Guaranteed, you will not want to leave it! If you're looking for a relaxing vacation in a modern, spacious home offering incredible views of the San Juan mountains, this is the perfect place for you!
