It is rare to find true backcountry solitude just one mile from Carbondale. This legacy inholding is perched above the valley floor, offering a 360-degree theater of the Rockies that cannot be replicated.
The home was designed to frame the iconic Crystal Couloir on Mt. Sopris, with a skyline that sweeps across Chair Mountain to the shimmering Crystal River below. Buffered by thousands of acres of dedicated open space, these views are permanent. It is a rare ''inholding'' feel where privacy is absolute, yet you can still ride your bike to town for sushi.
Taken back to the foundation in 2006, the home was completely rebuilt to capture natural light. The versatile floor plan features four bedrooms plus a non-conforming bedroom and a dedicated office which could be a 5th bedroom. The main living space utilizes a large accordion door and European windows to bridge the refined interior with the rugged landscape.
For bikers, this is the ultimate trail-side retreat. Seconds from the Prince Creek Trailhead, you have immediate access to a world-class network for dawn patrols or sunset rides. Outdoor spaces feature expansive decks, stone patios, and a new fire pit. Specialized outbuildings include a 4-trailer-wide 'Boat House' for a serious river quiver and a charming hobby farm with a chicken coop and gear sheds. A once-in-a-generation opportunity with NO HOA!
