This custom-built log sanctuary, wrapped in nature, is a rare gem in the Crystal River Valley featuring 8 acres of privacy, bordered on two sides by national forest, with million-dollar views of Elephant Mountain and panoramic views stretching from the Redstone cliffs to the peak of Mt. Sopris. This beautiful, well maintained home blends authentic mountain character with unmatched durability. Picture Butt-and-Pass log construction on a stone wall foundation, handcrafted woodwork throughout, and a solid retaining wall with runoff diversion—true contractor-grade quality built to stand the test of time. Inside, vaulted ceilings, wood-sculpted walls, and a stacked stone fireplace welcome you into an open floor plan perfect for gatherings. The gourmet kitchen features a gas burner island, stainless appliances including double ovens, and flows seamlessly to the wraparound porch—where morning coffee comes with elk sightings, awe inspiring views, and the whisper of the Crystal River. Accommodations include two spacious primary suites, a roomy bunkroom, and a versatile loft that doubles as an office or additional sleeping quarters. Extras? A clawfoot soaking tub, steam shower, heated oversized garage, two water sources, and the home is sold turnkey furnished — ready to enjoy or rent.
