About This Home
Perched above the Chalk Creek Valley and tucked beneath the dramatic Chalk Cliffs, Cliffside is a one-of-a-kind mountain retreat—designed in the spirit of Frank Lloyd Wright, with intentional spaces that feel both functional and inviting. This three-level home features 3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and three fireplaces, and has been recently remodeled, including a standout primary suite with a spectacular bath. Expansive windows and a large west-facing deck capture unforgettable Colorado sunsets and flood the home with natural light. This property is currently operated as a short-term rental with a strong income history, offering excellent flexibility for an owner-user and/or investor. An added bonus is the detached accessory dwelling unit (ADU) above the garage, featuring 1 bedroom and 1.5 baths—ideal to utilize as a long-term rental, guest quarters, or a private lock-off space depending on your needs. The oversized garage with two garage doors provides ample room for vehicles, storage, and all your Colorado toys. Enjoy parking for up to four vehicles, and an unbeatable location just down the road from Mount Princeton Hot Springs, with easy access to St. Elmo, the Colorado Trail, and the dining and shopping of Salida and Buena Vista (approx. 15–20 minutes).
