One of a kind mountain retreat with house and detached guest house, on 35 acres bordering BLM land, with end of the road privacy. No HOA. Rare opportuity to also purchase adjoining 35.60 acre lot. Close to town, yet a million miles away. Awesome views of the Sangre De Cristo mountains from the main house patio. As you enter the front door you are greeted with vaulted ceilings, a huge open great room with a window wall that makes the outdoors feel like an extension of the inside. The kitchen is equipped with high end Kitchen Aid appliances, custom cabinets and a large island perfect for gatherings and morning coffee. The master bath feels like your own personal spa, with soaking tub and a large walk-in shower. The office is set up to be converted to another bedroom if needed. But even better is the 680 square foot accessory dwelling unit which can be used for rental income, multigenerational housing, or housing family members. The ADU is set up with 2 rooms, each with a queen bed and kitchenette. In addition to the main house and ADU, there is a 1200 square foot heated shop and a huge custom-built greenhouse. The house, guest house and shop are all built to high-performance standards, with efficiency in mind. James Hardi fiber cement siding, 24-gauge metal roofs, insulated stem wall and slabs and much more. The house uses passive solar and a wood stove for heat. It also has a forced air furnace, but is rarely needed when running the woodstove. Custom woodworking throughout. Backs to over 33,000 acres of BLM with thousands more in the surrounding area. After hiking the trails on property, come back and relax in the hot tub surrounded by nature, silence and solitude. There’s nothing like sitting in the hot tub under the dark skies, seeing the Milky Way and shooting stars.
