Spectacular off grid cabin in the woods! This 2 bed 3/4 bath offers a little piece of heaven in the Rockies'! The cabin(framed) offers 1200 square feet with picture windows and views in every direction. The main view is a stunning view of Mt. Blanca and the Sangre de Cristo Mountain range! This cabin is independent/off grid with a full solar system(Battery's, panels, inverters, generator)that provides a unique and green way of living! The home was built(2010) with such quality and attention to detail ,you can see it in every nook! The kitchen is lined with soft earthy tile work, flooring is laminate and tile. The vaulted ceiling is the icing on the cake with beautifully beetle kill & aspen wood. The craftsmanship shows throughout the home! You really can unplug and relax in this awe-inspiring mountain retreat! But wait, we aren't done yet! There is a separate guest home(13x27),that needs finished(currently used for storage). It offers 1 bed 1 bath, potentially for company and family gatherings. A handy green house(9x7) and a spacious carport(20x32)! The carport includes concrete stem wall, secured poles with metal roof, which would be easy to close in if you wanted to complete the work to add walls for a garage! The property includes a private septic system and a 1200 gallon cistern(and portable water tank and transport vehicle are available). This cabin is tucked in the thick Pine forest located in the Sangre de Cristo Ranches. A comfy community with so much to offer. When owning property in the Ranch you are able to access the 4500 acres of common land as well for recreational use, hunting, hiking, biking and anything ese you could possibly want to enjoy! Furniture negotiable.
