    What's special

    Set just beyond the edge of town in the serene alpine landscape of Leadville, Colorado, this thoughtfully updated mountain retreat offers refined comfort, natural beauty, and exceptional versatility. Sitting on just under a full acre and surrounded by over 100 lodgepole pines with pockets of aspen and native groundcover, the setting is peaceful, private, and effortlessly low-maintenance. A welcoming curb presence and paved approach lead into a light-filled interior with vaulted ceilings, warm tones, and wood-style flooring. The living and dining areas feel expansive, anchored by a striking three-sided gas fireplace and complemented by a custom media niche. French doors open to the backyard, creating seamless indoor-outdoor flow. The kitchen blends style and function with a breakfast bar, rich wood cabinetry, stone countertops, and a full appliance suite including a double-oven gas range. A main-level bedroom and full bath provide flexibility for guests or multi-generational living, while upstairs, the primary suite offers a quiet retreat with dual closets. The property is further enhanced by a charming detached log cabin with electricity, kitchenette, lofted sleeping area, and wood-burning stove—ideal as a guest suite, studio, or potential rental. The adjoining deck features a spa and infrared sauna, creating a private wellness escape. Additional highlights include a detached 2.5-car garage with a heated, finished flex space, 100-amp service, and EV-ready 50-amp circuit, along with solar-assisted heating, a new water heater, and radon mitigation system. Located just minutes from Turquoise Lake with easy access to surrounding roads, this property offers the perfect balance of seclusion, convenience, and true Colorado mountain living.
