About This Home

~~ A little known and unique location for those wanting true Colorado living, and to be adjacent to US Forest Service (USFS) land. Only 2 miles from Purgatory Resort, this home is 3482 sf, with 3 bedrooms, 4 baths, including a spacious loft, serving as an office and guest room.... all tucked in the trees and perched on 13.4 acres (was two lots) at the dead end of the subdivision road. This parcel directly borders the San Juan National Forest (SJNF) to the south and Little Cascade Creek down the hill to the east. ~~ Entering this well-built home on the main level, you step into the great room, flooded with light, and a wall of solarizing southern exposure windows reaching up to the vaulted, aspen-planked ceiling. Enjoy the long vista out across your personal forest and the 180-degree views, through the trees, from the Needles Mountains to the northeast, down to Electra Lake and west to the Hermosa Cliffs. Stay cozy in the winter with the wood burning stove and relax in either of the two living areas, complete with wet bar. Sliding glass doors open onto a large deck for enjoying beverages or just listening to the quiet! ~~ The efficient kitchen is centrally located with solid hickory hardwood cabinetry, granite tile countertops, a built-in sideboard and pantry closet. With easy access through the back door into the adjoining laundry/mud room area. Eat at the kitchen island or in the separate dining room flanked by windows to take in the view. ~~ The large Primary suite is on this main level with cathedral ceilings, a good-sized bath with two vanities, a water closet, a jetted tub and shower. Also incorporating a huge walk-in closet and its own small deck with peek-a-boo views of the Needles. The 2nd bedroom is also on the main floor, currently used as an office, plus a 3⁄4 bath with quartzite counters that serves as a powder room too. On the upper level, the large airy loft, with vaulted ceilings and abundant storage, serves as guest room and another office with its own ensuite remodeled 3⁄4 bath. ~~ The lower level walk-out is a huge Family room. This is fabulous flex space, a great media or hobby room and large enough to handle guests and kids. It has a 3⁄4 bath and outside access with its own deck. This room adjoins the attached garage and wood working shop. ~~ Heat is radiant throughout the home, beneath the tile or carpet, with 5 zones serviced by an on-demand water heating system that supplies both household water and in-floor heat. (Except the loft bedroom which has forced air supplied by the same system). ~~ The Well is 500 ft deep and there are two cisterns in the crawlspace, holding approximately 850 gallons of water for household reserves and the house fire suppression sprinkler system. ~~ This property is only one mile from Hwy 550 and serviced with underground power. Columbine Subdivision POA maintains and plows this private gravel road. There are covenants and fees are reasonable, no short term rentals allowed. The back/south section of the subdivision has only 7 homes, on 10 parcels, so road usage is minimal. This is a private road and narrow in places, please drive slowly. People and pets walk the road! Home is occupied, requesting no drive-bys without permission. Call for info or to request a personal showing to see this special niche, close to resort amenities yet tucked away! A hidden secret!
