Description
Experience refined riverfront living in this rare, handcrafted mountain retreat with main home and guest home both gracefully perched along the banks of the West Fork of the Dolores River. Set on a private one-acre parcel and bordered on three sides by National Forest, the main home is a three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath residence (3800 SF) with a private 1 bedroom, 1 bath guest home (1650 SF) that offers a remarkable blend of seclusion, natural beauty, and effortless access to year-round outdoor adventure. From the moment you arrive, the home’s warmth and character are unmistakable. Thoughtfully designed with vaulted ceilings, expansive windows, and an inviting, well-appointed floor plan, the interior feels both grand and intimate. Generous living spaces create the perfect setting for gathering with family and friends, while quiet corners throughout the home invite peaceful moments overlooking the river. Custom materials sourced from local mills and as far away as Minnesota add depth, texture, and a distinctive sense of heritage a subtle nod to craftsmanship rarely found today. Just steps from the main residence, you will find the matching guest home complete with a workshop and ample storage ideal for hosting extended guests, renting to a caretaker or tenant, creating a private studio, or designing the ultimate mountain retreat space. Current owners have been operating a successful airb&b in the main home, while blocking out time to enjoy it themselves. The guest home has a long term caretaker renter in place. The flexibility and potential are as impressive as the setting itself. Outdoors, manicured lawns blend seamlessly with mature Douglas Fir, Spruce, Aspen, and Pine, creating a picturesque and private sanctuary. The soothing sound of the West Dolores River, the surrounding National Forest, and easy year-round access make this property as practical as it is enchanting. Elegant yet welcoming, secluded yet accessible, this exquisite Colorado mountain sanctuary offers a rare opportunity to live immersed in nature without sacrificing comfort or refinement.
