MAIN RESIDENCE + PERMITTED 680 SF ADU + 1,200 SF HEATED SHOP + GREENHOUSE ON 35 ACRES BORDERING BLM. A rare high-performance mountain compound offering privacy, versatility and direct access to Colorado's public lands. Set at the end of the road on 35 private acres, the property borders more than 33,000 acres of BLM land, with thousands more nearby. No HOA. THE MAIN RESIDENCE: Custom built using high-performance building science for year-round comfort and energy efficiency. The open-concept interior features soaring ceilings, expansive windows, panoramic mountain views and modern finishes that blend clean architectural lines with the surrounding landscape. THE PERMITTED ADU: The separate 680 SF Accessory Dwelling Unit is built to the same high-performance standards as the main residence and offers flexible living space for guests, extended family, caretaker or possible rental income. It features two private sleeping rooms, each with a queen bed and kitchenette, plus separate toilet and shower rooms, providing comfortable, self-contained accommodations. THE HEATED SHOP: 1,200 SF space with 10-foot ceilings, also built to the same high-performance standards as the main residence, an 8' x 9' garage door and ample power. Ideal for vehicles, equipment, hobbies, studio, workshop or business needs. A large custom greenhouse complements 35 acres of rolling terrain, native pinon, rock formations and private trails. Hike your own property or continue directly onto thousands of acres of adjoining public land. At day's end, relax in the hot tub surrounded by mountain views, nature and solitude. The Arkansas River's renowned fly fishing and whitewater recreation are nearby, with Salida, Canon City and the Front Range within scenic driving distance. Far more than a 2-bedroom residence, this is a private Colorado mountain compound with a permitted ADU, heated shop, greenhouse, 35 acres and direct BLM access.
