Picture sunrise pouring through tall windows and evenings by a crackling wood stove as snow falls over the Colorado landscape. This newly built, move-in ready ranch home on 2 partially wooded acres delivers true mountain living with quality to match. Built with Insulated Concrete Forms (ICF) and a metal roof, it's efficient and made to last. The single-level, split-bedroom design means no stairs, with a central family room separating the primary suite from two spacious additional bedrooms. Vaulted tongue-and-groove pine ceilings and an open floor plan make all 1,800 square feet feel bright and spacious, with Luxury Vinyl flooring throughout and no carpet. The hand-built kitchen is a showpiece: solid beetle kill pine cabinetry, acacia hardwood counters, and a large island with pull-out storage. Large living room windows bring in natural light, passive solar heat, and sweeping views, while the wood-burning stove on its rock hearth will keep things cozy on the snowiest day. Set on a quiet cul-de-sac with a natural canopy of trees for privacy, the property includes a well that allows horses and county-maintained roads for year-round access. The Ranch of the Rockies HOA, only $245/year, offers a stocked private fishing lake, horse boarding pastures and a horse arena, gated RV storage with water fill and dump station, trash service, a pavilion, a communty fire pit, fenced dog run, a full-time ranch manager, and two National Forest access points. Nearby you'll find Gold Medal Waters, abundant wildlife, and endless fishing, hunting, hiking, and off-roading. Located close to Buena Vista, the Collegiate Peaks, and the Arkansas River, just over an hour to Breckenridge, with short drives to Colorado Springs and Denver. Seclusion and accessibility in the heart of everything Colorado offers. Schedule your showing today!
