Off-Grid Living Made Easy! Enjoy 39 private acres bordering another 351 acres of State Land Board property along with a fully furnished solar powered home just 45 minutes from Denver! Built in 2016 and perched up high at 9,710 ft you’ll enjoy stunning layered mountain vistas, abundant pine and aspen, along with wildlife that will all take your breath away! The thoughtfully designed layout includes 1 conforming bedroom, 1.5 baths, and a spacious loft with additional non-conforming sleeping areas or office space.

The kitchen includes hickory cabinets, slab granite counters, a hammered copper farmhouse sink, island storage, and a custom antler chandelier. Enjoy radiant heated LVP flooring throughout, plus for peace of mind a 14KW Kohler whole-house back up generator.

There's also a metal roof. The area around the home has been fire mitigated for added protection. Enjoy bountiful wildlife including deer, elk, moose, wild turkeys, foxes and bears. If you’re looking for a private retreat above the clouds that is convenient to I-70, 30 minutes to Loveland Ski Area, hiking, rafting, hunting, Tommy Knockers and Westbound & Down breweries, Main Street Restaurant, Smokin Yards, Mtn Prime as well as funky retail shops and the new Mighty Argo Mine Cable Car for touring plus the gondola ride to the top to the Virginia Canyon 28 Mile Mountain Bike Park- this is it!
