This property features a hand-crafted, architect-designed 3,950 square-foot home of natural hand-peeled logs nestled in the pines on 70 acres at the foot of 14,000-foot Mt. Columbia. The home, guest residence, and premier horse facility grace the native meadows and ponderosa pine forest of this uniquely special property. The meadows and forest support abundant wildflowers in summer and year-round big game and other wildlife. Situated in a unique private setting, accessed by well-maintained private roads, the ranch is only 10 minutes from the picturesque and progressive town of Buena Vista. National Forest access is within easy walking distance, opening the entire Collegiate Peaks Wilderness to hiking and horseback riding opportunities. Chaffee County in the Arkansas Valley is famous for its mild climate yet this property is only 1 hour to world-class skiing.
The property is already subdivided into two 35-acre parcels. For buyers who are not interested in the entire 70 acres, the sellers are offering the home, guest residence, and horse facility on 35 acres for $1,390,000. The home, with kitchens, baths and flooring new since 2007, includes three baths and the potential for five bedrooms. A spacious great room (open to a loft above) with porcelain tile floor and two-story stone fireplace opens into a sunroom/greenhouse along its entire south wall. The home incorporates clerestory windows and many solar heating features. The furnace-rated gas fireplace and electric heat complement solar heating and heat from a massive ?Siberian? wood-burning stove. A utility room/kennel room includes ?Pride? dog doors accessing five dog-friendly pens and a canine play yard. The extensive lower level of this multi-level home features a second kitchen and separate entrance. Windows admit sunlight from the outdoors and from the sunroom to brighten the lower level.
A 600 square-foot second residence near the main house can function as a duplex of two adjoining studio apartments, each with a Murphy bed and bath, or can be used as a single residence with a living area and a bedroom suite. Possibilities abound for rental income, guest accommodations or a bed and breakfast facility in this truly ?green-built? sunlit, adobe-style, passive-solar building of SolarStone,? a light-weight insulative concrete.
The horse facility includes an indoor training arena 66? x 105? with Fibar footing, a full arena liner, and all-weather lighting. There are four stalls and grooming area on the main level and a 15?x66? storage/viewing area above. Log loafing barns with feed/equipment storage areas serve five paddocks ranging in size up to two acres. Two additional paddocks are pipe fenced. Water and electricity run to all buildings, and the seven paddocks have automatic heated waterers. Outdoor training facilities include an 80? round pen and 150?x200? arena, both graded level and with sand footing. There are several cross-country training course elements including a stone wall.
