This quintessential Engelmann Spruce custom log home is tucked amongst pine and aspen groves with dramatic views of the Hermosa Cliffs, the Needles 14,000 foot peaks and backs directly to thousands of acres of the San Juan National Forest, literally right out the back door. What more could you ask for? …. Except to be less than two miles from the ski resort, with privacy and serenity unrivaled in the area! ~~~ The homes’ classic elegance is deliberately designed to reflect traditional log style with burnished plank tile, and stone floors, wood burning fireplaces, large split log sills, handsome tile countertops and fixtures, plus a refurbished 1900’s parlor stove for heat and vintage character! Old world craftsmanship is evident in the exquisite dry-stack masonry with the tower-like curved exterior walls and in the stunning stone floor-to-ceiling Rumford fireplace in the great room, designed to reflect the Hermosa Cliffs formation to the West. The level of care taken with design and construction of this log gem is apparent both in the aesthetics and behind the scenes. ~~~ The vaulted great room, with huge vertical windows, captures the magnificence of Castle Rock and is open to the formal dining area and the kitchen, with a cozy breakfast nook looking east at the fabulous view of the Needles Mountains. Wake up to another amazing vista from the main floor Primary suite, hang out on the window seat or in the jetted tub with its own picture window. The upper level is a spacious loft bedroom with its own bath and yet another panorama. Then everyone’s favorite… the charming stone guest cottage complete with kitchenette and full bath…which is attached by a unique covered porch featuring an outdoor fireplace and east/west views! The walk-out lower level hosts the family room, complete with a period bar, plus a large multipurpose bonus room potentially an extra guest space, work-out, game, or media room with access to the outdoor patio and covered hot tub. There are just so many sweet spots to curl up with a book or just stare at the views it is hard to decide. ~~~ The attention to detail is not just on the surface, it carries through into the systems running the home. The in-floor heat, with a new 2022 boiler, has multiple zones for fine tuning as needed. Plus a new state-of-the-art remotely controlled security system with nine cameras, plus automated lighting and thermostats. Not to mention the backup systems: for heat with the wood burning parlor stove and gas started fireplaces, for water with a 1500 gallon water cistern in the utility room serviced by a good producing well, and for power with a propane fueled generator. Note that electricity is underground beneath the Forest Service and subdivision access road. There is also ice melt, water detection and fire suppression systems in the home along with lightening rods. Nothing has been overlooked for comfort and functionality! ~~~ Columbine Subdivision POA annual fee is variable and covers the Trash dumpster out front, Road maintenance and Snow removal which is based on linear distance of road (and for snow includes driveway). There are some other variable or optional fees. Short time rentals are not permitted in subdivision. ~~~ All that remains is to enjoy both unparalleled privacy and convenience! This little-known neighborhood, with only a few homes and landlocked by Forest Service, is only ¾ mile off the Hwy 550 corridor but one of the rare locations in the north county where you can’t see or hear the highway. ~~~ Unlock this hidden secret, with its private access and views everywhere you look!
