Perched along the scenic ridgelines above Nederland, this custom 5-bedroom, 3-bath residence offers an expansive lifestyle defined by raw natural and redefined craftsmanship, intimately tied to the land. Set on 21.7 acres bordering National Forest, it offers a rare breadth of Colorado Backcountry lifestyle: mountain biking, skiing, climbing, fishing, and paddling at the doorstep, with acreage for ranching, alpacas, or a creative studio. An active short-term rental license adds genuine investment merit. Within, cathedral ceilings rise above warm, inviting interiors. The reimagined kitchen features premium appliances, bespoke oak cabinetry, and custom countertops, while a passive solar greenhouse with radiant flooring lends a graceful, functional touch. The primary suite is a private sanctuary with lake views, a walk-in closet, and a remodeled bath in rich cherry. Further distinctions include front, rear, and upper decks (400+ sq ft), a mudroom, high-end doors, a dual-sided wood-burning fireplace integrated with the forced-air system, and a heated 200 sq ft outbuilding. With parking for ten or more, the property is ideally suited to entertaining and gatherings of any scale. Minutes from Nederland and roughly thirty from Boulder, this is an extraordinary offering-combined acreage, wilderness access, and enduring value in one of the region's most compelling mountain properties.
