Description

A Rare Crested Butte Legacy Property " First Time on the Market Since 1990 Step back in time to when Crested Butte was surrounded by open ranchland, cattle roamed, and life moved at a gentler pace. Now available for the first time in over three decades, this extraordinary 38+ acre property offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Colorados pastoral heritage. Just 4 miles from downtown Crested Butte, a circular drive off Highway 135 leads you to a classic ranch-style home with 2,980 square feet of living space. This spacious retreat features 4+ bedrooms, updated bathrooms, two generous living areas, and three fireplaces for cozy mountain evenings. The open-concept main level is designed for entertaining, with large picture windows on both sides of the home that capture sweeping views of the surrounding mountain landscape. From the dining room, Whetstone Mountain becomes a dramatic backdrop for every meal, while the living room offers stunning vistas of Crested Butte Mountain and the Brush Creek Valley. Upstairs, a vaulted-ceiling second living room with oversized windows provides the perfect vantage point to watch the sun set over the mountains. The home also includes a full basement for ample storage. Step outside to enjoy summer barbecues on the back deck, framed by uninterrupted views and quiet serenity. Equestrian enthusiasts will love the classic red barn with corral, ready for horses, along with 3 c.f.s. of water rights to irrigate the lush, green pastures. A large steel outbuilding serves as a garage and storage space, perfectly suited for all your mountain lifestyle gear. This is more than a home " its a timeless sanctuary where space, history, and natural beauty come together. Dont miss your chance to own a truly special slice of Crested Butte.
