About This Home

Nestled on a picturesque 0.5-acre lot backing to the stunning San Isabel National Forest, this custom-built 2,250-square-foot log home offers rustic charm and modern comforts. Constructed with 8-inch double tongue-and-groove, interlocking logs, the home boasts a durable pro-panel metal roof with snow jacks and steel gutters, ensuring year-round resilience in Colorado’s mountain climate. Step inside to discover a spacious and inviting interior featuring 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The heart of the home is the great room, warmed by a cozy pellet stove, perfect for relaxing or entertaining with magnificent views of Sangre de Cristo Mountain Range. The adjacent dining room showcases a custom antler chandelier, adding a touch of mountain elegance. The well-appointed kitchen is a chef’s delight, equipped with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, a gas stove, and sleek tile flooring. Downstairs, the family room offers additional living space and includes a pool table for endless enjoyment. The home is heated by an efficient baseboard hot water system (propane), and a radon mitigation system was thoughtfully installed last year for peace of mind. Outside, the property has been meticulously mitigated per a Colorado State Forest Service (CSFS) assessment, enhancing safety and preserving the natural beauty of the surrounding forest. This exceptional retreat combines the serenity of nature with the comforts of a custom log home—an ideal mountain escape and year-round residence. Located within 5 miles of Bear And Blue Lakes and within 10 miles of North and Monument Lake for fishing enthusiasts. Property has Jade Communications for high speed internet.
