About This Lot
Welcome to the exclusive enclave of Saddle Ridge Ranch Estates, a truly intimate community. Situated between the historic town of Crested Butte and the bustling ski resort town of Mt. Crested Butte, this location provides the ideal backdrop to savor all that "The Last Great Colorado Ski Town" and "Wildflower Capital of Colorado" have to offer. As you approach 565 Saddle Ridge Road, you'll find yourself at what could easily be considered the most breathtaking and secluded homesite within the subdivision. From this vantage point, you'll be treated to awe-inspiring 360 vistas of the iconic peaks that encircle the valley. Perched on a hillside, tucked at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac, and bordering 70 acres of privately owned open space maintained by the homeowners' association, this 2.47-acre elevated lot offers a bird's-eye view of downtown Crested Butte with its glittering lights, and the Slate River gently meandering through the valley floor. The current owners of this remarkable property have diligently prepared the groundwork for your Rocky Mountain home. They've secured county and fire district approval for the driveway and obtained architectural design approval from the homeowners' association. Most of the pieces are in place to ensure your vision becomes a reality. Saddle Ridge Ranch Estates residents also enjoy the added amenity of a fully equipped barn, complete with a tack room, indoor stalls, and pasture, catering to equestrian enthusiasts. What truly distinguishes this Crested Butte location is its harmonious blend of tranquility and convenience. You'll revel in the serenity of a private setting, while enjoying effortless access to hiking, biking, and the Recreation Path connecting the two towns. Step right out your front door to explore the Lupine Trail, providing access to a network of extensive hiking and biking routes. And when you're in the mood for skiing, dining, or entertainment, it's just a short drive to town. Bring your dreams home to this extraordinary setting today, and embark on a journey of creating cherished memories with family and friends that will endure a lifetime. Architectural plans designed by Arch 11, recently honored as Colorado's Architecture Firm of the Year in 2024. In the tradition of mountain homes, the house form is nested in to the natural contours of the site. Large, functional roof overhangs offer protection and safety against winter snow fall and give the structure a timeless quality. The home was strategically aligned to be on axis with the peak of Mt. Crested Butte, creating a focal point from all the main living spaces in the home. Sweeping views south to Whetstone Mountain and town are prominent from the kitchen and all bedrooms. Differing window size and placement creates interest and variety, while the roof geometry and eave lines reference the undulating geography of the adjacent ridgelines. Exposed wood structure and decking adds warmth to the composition and speaks to mountain building traditions. Native stone is used on the façade to visually anchor the building mass to the ground and acts as a durable material in the winter weather and offers a varied organic color connecting the building to the landscape.
