About This Home
NEW BUYER FRIENDLY PRICE! Welcome to your own private mountain retreat in the highly sought-after Silverheels Ranch community. Set on 5 secluded acres surrounded by towering pines, aspens, rock outcroppings, abundant wildlife, and breathtaking mountain views, this property offers the Colorado lifestyle buyers dream about. One of the most desirable features of this location is the incredible access to the outdoors. The Crooked Creek Road trailhead is just 0.7 miles away, providing miles of hiking, horseback riding, hunting, wildlife viewing, and backcountry exploration practically from your doorstep. Opportunities like this are exactly why so many buyers are drawn to Silverheels Ranch. Inside, the home offers over 3,800 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space with soaring ceilings, expansive windows, exposed beams, and an open-concept layout that perfectly captures the surrounding mountain views. The spacious kitchen features granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, while the great room creates the ideal gathering space for entertaining family and friends. Recent updates include new composite siding, fresh exterior paint, gutters and downspouts, a French drain beneath the driveway for improved drainage, recycled asphalt driveway surfacing, and luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout the main level. The home's southern orientation allows the Colorado sunshine to naturally warm the interior, creating an inviting and energy-conscious living environment year-round while providing plenty of flexibility for full-time living, vacation use, or hosting guests. Owners enjoy access to stocked fishing ponds within the community, while the property itself is frequented by moose, elk, and deer. Horses are permitted, county-maintained roads provide reliable year-round access, and you're only minutes from Fairplay, Breckenridge, and Buena Vista.
