About This Home

A once in a generation opportunity in the heart of Buena Vista. Five separate parcels. Four turnkey homes. One buildable riverfront lot. All offered together, all within an easy stroll of Main Street's coffee shops, boutiques, breweries, and the Arkansas River. Tucked quietly behind a canopy of mature cottonwoods, the Brookdale Complex is framed by the gentle sound of Cottonwood Creek tumbling through the property. This is the kind of setting most Buena Vista buyers only dream of finding, delivered as a true portfolio play. The centerpiece is a striking custom log home at 121 Brookdale, perched above Cottonwood Creek with a walkout basement, wraparound wood decks, and a spacious attached garage. Just below it sits the vacant fifth parcel, a rare in-town buildable lot with direct creek frontage, ready for a mountain modern residence, a guest cabin, or a premier short term rental investment, subject to Buena Vista zoning. Anchoring the creek on the opposite end is 139 Brookdale, a 1,680 square foot double wide resting directly on Cottonwood Creek with sweeping decks, a 576 sf attached garage, and a generous half acre lot. Between them sit 133 Brookdale, a 1,456 sf three bedroom two bath with attached garage, and 127 Brookdale, a well kept 1,069 sf three bedroom two bath with covered deck and carport. Together the four homes deliver 5,213 square feet of livable space plus a walkout lower level, spread across 1.27 improved acres, with a fifth creekside parcel on top. Use as a family compound. Hold as a long term rental portfolio. Develop the open lot. Or reimagine the entire block. Few properties in Chaffee County offer this mix of location, income potential, water frontage, and buildable upside, all steps from downtown Buena Vista and minutes from the Collegiate Peaks, Cottonwood Pass, and the Arkansas River.
