Description
Improved Price! Your Off-Grid Escape in the Heart of Colorado! Tucked into the pines less than an hour from Grand Junction, this extraordinary 40-acre retreat offers the kind of solitude that's increasingly hard to find. Perched at approximately 7,800 feet, the property commands breathtaking, unobstructed views of Unaweep Canyon and borders National Forest trails perfect for ATV adventures, hunting, and wildlife watching. This custom built, modern log cabin is anything but ordinary. Vaulted ceilings and generous picture windows flood the interior with natural light while framing the stunning landscape beyond every pane. The well-appointed full kitchen offers ample storage and propane appliances while the recirculating hot water pump ensures comfort the moment you arrive. The main-level master bedroom and two loft-style bedrooms upstairs offer flexible sleeping arrangements for family and guests alike. Step outside onto the low-maintenance Trex deck, where a gas-line-connected BBQ grill awaits your next mountain cookout. Below the cabin, a full-height walk-out foundation - nearly six feet tall with twin exterior doors - provides generous storage for all your gear and recreational equipment. A central vacuum outlet and full furnishings round out a cabin that's truly move-in ready. The land itself is a showpiece: approximately three acres of horse pasture (with hot wire), a seasonal creek, and natural landscaping of mountain grasses, wildflowers, aspens, and pines that explode with color from summer through fall. Wildlife is abundant: elk, deer, turkeys, bear, mountain lions and bobcats all visit the property. Serious hunters will appreciate direct access to Trophy Area 61 with Area 62 just a few minutes away. Rock climbers and hikers have a multitude of options within minutes. Completely off-grid and fully self-sufficient, the property features a solar system, private water well, new below ground 1,100 gallon cistern, septic system, washer/dryer hookup and propane appliances - with a recently filled leased propane tank ready to go. Elevations across the parcel range from approximately 7,100 to 8,100 feet. Whether you're seeking a weekend retreat, a seasonal second home, or a hunting base camp, this rare sanctuary is a one-of-a-kind opportunity. Due to private road access, all showings require a scheduled appointment. Seller/Owner is licensed agent and Listing Agent.
