METICULOUS Colorado Timber-frame / stucco home with all the bells and whistles big enough to sleep a small army, large family or executive retreat! Nearly 35 acres bordering the San Juan National Forest, this home is custom crafted and ready for a new owner to enjoy the Colorado Dream setting. Spectacular views in every direction from Paogsa Peak and the North Range to the East Mountains and west towards Chimney Rock and Durango. Extremely private setting, this Elk Park Ranch setting has everything you need from Aspens, Sage, Pines and views to well thought out large rooms for relaxing, tv, games, theater and taking a break after a day of hiking or riding in the National Forest. Huge Great Room with slate floors, native sandstone fireplace and floor to ceiling windows providing an abundance of natural light while bringing the views inside. At night you can see the sky full of Colorado stars and watch the moon rise while enjoying the fireplace. Functionally designed kitchen can accommodate a crowd. From the kitchen and Great Room you’ll enjoy 1200+ sf of covered decks perfect for a barbeque, party or a nap in the hammock. Beautiful Master bedroom suite with westerly views and a deck for enjoying the Alpine glow and a glass of wine at sunset. Other main floor guest room as well. In the lower level you will find space for every entertainment option from a pool table, shuffle board table, theater area, game table and more. The current owner has this space set up to comfortably sleep 6 with room left over. There is also a sauna to relax after a day on the slopes of Wolf Creek. The upper level has windows and views on 3-sides. Multiple options for sleeping space, home office or business or even an apartment conversion for extended family. There is an abundance of tile and slate in this home making it good for the allergy sensitive. 3-car garage with space to spare for all the mountain toys and gear. Although not currently set up for horses, a barn or stable could be added and you could ride right in to the National Forest. 12 minutes to Pagosa Springs Golf Course (public) 10 minutes to City Market Shopping Center, Walmart, Pagosa Mountain Hospital, Side Street Sushi and The Pagosa Brewing Company. Less than 15 minutes to Historic Downtown Pagosa Springs where you can soak in the Pagosa Hot Springs, walk along the San Juan River walking path, fly fish the river or take in one of the many new trendy mountain restaurants or brew pubs. 40 minutes to Wolf Creek Ski Area where the powder is deep and the skiing is softer than anything you typically find at the bigger trendier resorts (It’s half the price and the food is good too!). Enjoy 4 million plus acres of San Juan National Forest right out your backyard! If a REAL Colorado home is what you are looking for, put this on your short list!
