Recreational Land with Home for Sale in La Veta, Colorado
1833 Yellowstone Creek Rd, La Veta, CO 81055
Autumn Rock is a one-of-a-kind mountain retreat where craftsmanship, history, and soul meet in perfect harmony. Named for a cherished quilt sold to help fund the purchase of the land, the home occupies a sacred space at the spiritual center of three Native American landmarks: East Peak, Blanca, and Greenhorn. This stunning home is situated on 40 acres, which also abuts 4,000 acres of BLM that are teeming with wildlife. The local elk herd, boasting a few hundred head, thrives in Yellowstone Ranch. The 4-bed, 3-bath homes cover 3,857 sf. Its interiors reflect this reverence-walls are hand-troweled and glazed in a Tuscan antique finish, art niches are subtly lit, and massive Douglas fir hammer-beam trusses frame the family room, the centerpiece of the room is a rustic stone wood burning fireplace accompanied by a custom chandelier crafted from an antique pulley that hangs proudly. The home is rich in character: floors are durable vinyl, ideal for the in-floor heat system. Exquisite Alderwood doors, exposed rebar accents, and a powder room with reclaimed wood and stone basin show thoughtful attention to detail. The primary suite offers sweeping views, a gas fireplace, live-edge features, and a spa-like bath. History echoes in every room from embedded Civil War-era bullets in extinct American chestnut doors to wainscoting reclaimed from old La Veta dance hall wood. A walkable crawlspace houses the mechanicals, including a propane boiler and whole-house filter system. Autumn Rock is more than a home; it's a legacy.
