Escape to your own secluded mountain retreat just 12 miles from Cañon City. Set on more than 36 scenic acres with no HOA or Convents, this charming 1,120-square-foot frame-built home, thoughtfully constructed on a pier-and-beam foundation well-suited to the terrain, offers privacy, sweeping mountain vistas, unforgettable sunsets, and frequent wildlife sightings-all enjoyed from the expansive deck or welcoming covered porch. Inside, the home blends comfort and character, beginning with a thoughtfully updated kitchen featuring Hampton Bay cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, on-demand hot water, a garbage disposal, and upgraded Pergo flooring. A spacious living room addition is filled with natural light and showcases soaring vaulted ceilings accented with tongue-and-groove Blue Beetle Kill Pine, with sliding doors opening to an oversized 300+ square-foot deck designed for soaking in the views. The generously sized primary bedroom measures 22' x 16' and includes direct deck access, a large walk-in closet, and the option to be reconfigured into two bedrooms if desired. Artistic stained-glass details lead to a beautifully remodeled bath featuring custom mosaic tile, a unique fossil-inlaid floor, updated cabinetry, modern fixtures, and a conveniently integrated stackable washer and dryer. Warm up on cool Colorado evenings beside either the propane fireplace or the wood stove. Outside, the property is equally impressive, with a 12' x 16' insulated outbuilding with solar power-ideal for a studio, workshop, guest space, or storage-plus a newer 15' x 20' metal shop complete with built-in shelving and workbenches. A three-stall barn/lean-to provides room for animals, equipment, or recreational gear. The acreage is partially fenced on three sides with two gated entrances, offering both privacy and functionality. Garden enthusiasts will appreciate the large 35' x 50' garden, supported by a 10 GPM domestic well, when drilled. Surrounded by endless recreation-from fishing, rafting, and hiking to skiing and rock climbing-this property delivers the best of Colorado living with the convenience of Canon City just approximately 12 miles away. More than a home, this is a private mountain haven where adventure, serenity, and self-sufficiency come together. Experience the beauty and freedom of owning your own piece of Colorado.
