This custom-built mountain retreat offers truly jaw-dropping views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains with oversized windows throughout the home designed to capture every inch of the breathtaking scenery from sunrise to sunset. Set on a private, tree-filled 40-acre parcel with a generous setback from the road, the property delivers the quiet and seclusion that make mountain living so special. A high-producing, non-metered well with a full home filtration system provides one of the most valuable resources in Colorado. The open-concept layout features large, light-filled rooms and French doors that lead to an expansive upper deck, perfect for soaking in the sweeping vistas, listening to hummingbirds, and watching wildlife pass through. The finished walk-out basement adds versatile living space, and the south-facing slope makes the home ideal for future solar use. At night, take in the unmatched Westcliffe dark sky views-this property sits in one of the few designated areas where you can see the Milky Way with stunning clarity. The 1,500 sq ft two-story, two-car garage offers generous space for vehicles, storage, or workshop needs. It has been recently painted, includes new upstairs flooring, a solar-ready electric panel, and newly run internet cable, making it ideal for an ADU or studio. Thoughtful upgrades include an extended leach field with state mitigation approval, updated deck railings, freshly stained decks, zero-scaping with stone around the home, and an improved driveway. Phone and DSL are run to both the house and barn, with good cell reception. Located just 15 minutes from the Sangre de Cristo Wilderness Area, San Isabel National Forest, and Westcliffe, this property is a rare opportunity to unplug, breathe deeply, and surround yourself with Colorado's most awe-inspiring mountain views.
