Property Description
Set in an aspen grove at 9,600 feet, the home offers true privacy with all the amenities of modern living. Floor-to-ceiling windows capture sweeping 14er panoramas, radiant heat and thoughtful finishes create a grounded, serene interior, and the elevation naturally lends itself to wellness, creativity, and high-performance pursuits. With dependable 50 Mbps internet, remote work and retreat living coexist effortlessly.
A 30-year solar and lithium battery system powers the property, supported by a propane generator for backup and optional grid connection nearby. The well water is exceptionally clean and treated with UV, heavy-metal, and reverse-osmosis filtration maintained by AquaServe. A radon mitigation system is already installed.
The home was designed with growth in mind - already framed for a future back porch or additional square footage - and gas lines at the front and back allow for an outdoor kitchen or pizza oven. A 1/2-acre fenced area is ideal for pets, and the detached shed provides generous storage for tools, outdoor gear, or motorcycle equipment.
Outdoor + Lifestyle Highlights
* Hundreds of miles of ATV and off-road trails right from the property
* Direct access to National Forest lands
* Explore peaceful routes toward St. Mary's Glacier, Winter Park, and beyond
* Perfect terrain for hiking, biking, backcountry training, and restorative solitude
With strong demand for high-design mountain homes that emphasize sustainability, privacy, and intentional living, this property offers exceptional versatility - a luxury primary residence, second-home retreat, or short-term rental opportunity. Sellers are open to negotiating a furnished sale for an effortless move-in.
