Property Description
End-of-the-road tranquility meets quintessential Colorado living. Set against a breathtaking backdrop of the La Plata Mountains and expansive mountain meadows, this 1993 custom-built home by Tom Gorton (once awarded Home Builder of the year) is the last residence on CR 207 before the entrance to Destination Ranchoffering a rare combination of privacy, views, space, and freedom with no HOA. Situated on two parcels totaling 12.2 acres, each with its own well, the property enjoys abundant water, southern exposure, and abundant solar orientation. From the moment you arrive, the setting feels distinctly Colorado: open meadows, mountain vistas, mature landscaping, endless star gazing, and the peaceful quiet that comes with being at the end of the road. The home was thoughtfully designed to capture the views with vaulted ceilings and an open floor plan. The kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, with a JennAir refrigerator, gas range, pantry, convection microwave, dishwasher, and a window over the sink that frames the surrounding mountain scenery. The home features Anderson windows, wide-plank yellow pine flooring, hardwood doors, built-in bookcases, and a striking real-wood-burning river-rock fireplace as a focal point for gatherings. Hunter Douglas remote battery-operated blinds complement the windows, while hot-water radiant baseboard heat provides comfortable, efficient warmth. The main level offers three bedrooms with vaulted ceilings, a full hallway bath, separate laundry room and storage, and easy access from the rear of the home to the exterior grade. Bedroom three enjoys a particularly beautiful view toward Silver Mountain. Upstairs, the private primary suite is a peaceful retreat, complete with a large walk-in closet, linen storage, dual-sink vanity, walk-in shower, and a soaking tub positioned to take in the mountain views as well. The walk-out lower level adds tremendous versatility and character. An inviting game room features a professional pool table, built-in cabinetry and bookshelves, movable cabinets, and substantial beams reclaimed from an old monastery in Portland. Additional space provides a bedroom/craft room, art studio or workout room, bath, and mechanical room. A separate mother-in-law apartment offers exceptional flexibility for guests, extended family, a caretaker, or additional rental potential. It connects to the main home through the hallway while also offering its own private walk-out entrance. The apartment features pine floors, two closets, a full bath, and a complete kitchen with gas range, dishwasher, and refrigerator. A covered deck and flagstone patio extend the living space outdoors. Outside, the property continues to impress with a recirculating waterfall, fenced garden area, covered pergola deck, flagstone patio, asphalt driveway, and southern exposure. A detached 1.5-car garage/shop features a double garage door with convenient drive-through access, while the covered carport provides additional parking. Upstairs storage offers an intriguing opportunity for a studio, creative space, or additional storage. The property is equipped with a new six-bedroom septic system installed in 2026, has an abundant water well, propane service through Basin, and internet can easily be provided by Starlink. This is a property for those seeking something increasingly rare: room to breathe, room to create, room to gather, and a genuine sense of place. With its spectacular mountain setting, end-of-road privacy, no HOA, flexible living spaces, and unmistakable Colorado character, this is more than a homeit is a private mountain-meadow retreat at the doorstep of one of Southwest Colorado's most beautiful landscapes.
