Description

Your National Forest Hunter’s Paradise & Mountain Sanctuary Backed directly by National Forest and tucked at the end of a private drive, this meticulously maintained mountain retreat is a rare find for hunters, outdoor enthusiasts, and anyone seeking true wilderness access; built for durability, comfort, and adventure. Custom details include beautifully stained concrete floors, a cozy fireplace in living room, and quality finishes that bring warmth and character to the high-country setting. With expansive privacy, spectacular Hermosa Cliffs views, and the forest literally at your doorstep, this property offers the ultimate mountain basecamp for hunting, recreation, and four-season adventure. For the avid hunter, the location is exceptional. Step directly from your property into thousands of acres of National Forest, offering unparalleled access to the surrounding backcountry and abundant opportunities for hunting, hiking, wildlife viewing, and exploration. The secluded setting among mature pines and aspens provides the feeling of having your own private gateway to the wilderness, while still offering the comfort and quality of a thoughtfully designed mountain home. Inside, the home lives like a three-bedroom residence, with two private bedrooms plus a queen bonus room that provides excellent flexibility for guests, family, or gear storage. The bonus room has a queen murphy wall bed and when folded away, provides a quiet sitting area and/or office. It also opens directly to a spacious balcony showcasing spectacular, unobstructed views of the Hermosa Cliffs. The surrounding landscape is framed by sweeping views of the Hermosa Cliffs and the tip of Grayrock, the majestic northwest peak of Graysill Mountain. On quiet afternoons, you may even hear the faint whistle of the historic narrow-gauge train echoing through the valley. For those ready to explore, the Animas River and historic railroad tracks are accessible by a scenic hike from the property boundary, putting even more wilderness adventure within reach. Turnkey and fully furnished, the property also includes a detached garage, making it exceptionally functional for storing a vehicle, ATVs, hunting equipment, skis, and outdoor gear. Whether envisioned as a private family retreat, a hunting headquarters, a vacation getaway, or a potential rental property, it is ready to enjoy from day one.
