Colorado, Garfield County, Glenwood Springs, USA

A tree-lined driveway takes you to a gorgeous custom-built mountain home nestled on 35 gently sloping acres filled with aspen, spruce, pine and oak trees. Enjoy breathtaking views of Mount Sopris, the Elk Range, the Flat Tops and Glenwood Canyon from your front deck. On a clear day you can see the back bowls of Vail and Collegiate Peaks. The home offers unparalleled privacy, peace and tranquility, as well as abundant wildlife, yet is only 7 miles from Highway 82 and 8 miles from downtown Glenwood. A gravel road extending from the paved section of Three-Mile Road brings you to the gate of Mountain Springs Rancha Firewise community of 43 parcels, each at least 35 acres. Covenants prevent any future building within your line of sight. Two easements give you private road access to thousands of acres of adjacent BLM land. The road is well-maintained and snow-plowed for year-round access. Once you see this unique and enchanting property, you will never want to leave. This property features on-grid electricity, a new well (15+ gpm), underground cistern and propane tank, septic, detached two-car garage (built 2022), two storage sheds, and a strategically placed stock tank for wildlife viewing. The house appears to be hand-hewn logs but is actually hand-hewn wood planks with a thick core of Styrofoam insulation. The tight construction and south-facing windows provide exceptional energy efficiency. The main floor features reclaimed pine wood floors, a gourmet kitchen (Wolf gas range and stove, Subzero refrigerator, and KitchenAid dishwasher) dining area and den, the main bedroom, and 1.5 baths with a steam shower. The curved wood and iron staircase takes you to a loft office and second bedroom and bath with a jacuzzi tub. The large walk-out basement has another den with a mini-fridge and refreshment bar, bedroom, bath, laundry and utility room, and large storage closet with a freezer. Two wood-burning stoves (basement and main floor) keep the house toasty on the coldest winter night, but the house is also equipped with forced air heat. This home is offered fully furnished. It is exquisitely decorated with artisan furniture to give you the Rocky Mountain cabin feel in a modern home. In the garage, you will find all the tools, toys and equipment you could ever want or need, including an Artic Cat ATV, Craftsman snowblower, John Deer riding mower, DR brush mower, 30-ton log splitter, electric and gas weed-eaters, electric push mower, a circular table saw, two Stihl chainsaws and more.
