About This Home

A rare Telluride gem! This enviable ski-in/ski-out position borders over 25 acres of open space. Be captivated by unparalleled, protected views of one of Colorado's most iconic 14,000' peaks. All while overlooking a precious, postcard-perfect meadow. This is one of Mountain Village's original prime on-grade ski lots; its supreme location is immediately evident, offering access and vistas that place it on par with the best of the Alps and Rockies. A thoughtful layout and excellent bones highlight the stunning 100-year-old recycled train trestle timbers, infusing the space with character and history. High vaulted ceilings with exposed dark wood beams accent the large living room, creating a rustic yet grand cabin feel.
