About This Home
This one-of-a-kind cabin sits at 8,300 feet in elevation, and gives you a birds eye view of Southern Colorado. Located near the town of Gardner, CO and lying in the shadow of Big and Little Sheep Mtns this 35 acre property has varying terrain and a mix of oak brush, trees, and meadows, and even a seasonal creek. The choice building location provides endless views of Greenhorn Mtn, Silver Mtn, and the Huerfano River Valley. Inside and out, the cabin is full of well thought out intricacies and mountain decor. Recent upgrades include metal siding, solar system, starlink, and a buried cistern. Sit on the porch swing, or in the outhouse, and pick up your binoculars to see if you can pick out any of the Elk, Mule Deer, Black Bear, or Merriam Turkey that live in this country. Come night fall, the stars and the sky are another viewing pleasure due to the lack of light pollution in the area. This property is a one-of-a-kind Southern Colorado mountain getaway. Come look yourself before its gone!
