Expansive front deck is perfect for entertaining, enjoying the views and watching the wildlife. The great room has beautiful milled, v-joint eastern white pine on the walls and ceiling that creates a warm, "cabiny" feel. Nice views from every room with lots of windows to capitalize on the southwestern exposure. The downstairs has an additional living area with white pine wainscoting as well with a storage room with a large unfinished basement, dryer hookup & door egress to the outside. Room to add an additional bath and washer & dryer downstairs, if needed. The exterior is mostly cement board siding making it easy to maintain. Lots of room to add on and/or build a garage. Incredible tasting water from a developed spring is an added bonus! A wonderful benefit for homeowners is the entrance into the national forest which accesses the West Elk Wilderness. Natural landscaping surrounds you with tons of wildflowers and beautiful sunrises and sunsets! With plenty of outdoor living to enjoy what the mountains have to offer, this cabin has it all. Super close to incredible hiking/hunting in the West Elk Wilderness, this home sits on a mesa with the surrounding land being completely built-out so your views will never change. Enjoy easy access into thousands of acres of national forest and wilderness areas. It is very common to see deer, elk and moose along the tree-line near the property! In the summer, you can fish in the association’s stocked lake, horseback ride out your back door or sit around the campfire with family and friends and roast marshmallows. Fall brings a welcome change of colors with yellow aspens and falling yellow leaves all around you changing the views in every direction. Winter allows for cozy evenings with good cross-country skiing or snow-shoeing in the winter wonderland out your back door!
