Set on 40 private acres in the San Juan Mountains with sweeping views of the Sneffels Range, this beautifully reimagined home offers a rare combination of privacy, design, and proximity--45 min from Telluride and Montrose, 20-min from Ridgway. Fully remodeled in 2024 down to the studs by Allison Construction, the original builder for Ralph Lauren, the home now reflects a clean mountain-modern aesthetic. It features 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and a thoughtfully designed open floor plan with vaulted ceilings and large picture windows. The remodel added a spacious primary suite and a versatile covered dining/play room. Upstairs includes a second living area, two bedrooms, and a full bath. The Polaris utility vehicle is included and lives in the large, heated, 2-car detached garage. Outdoor Paradise
Centered in an aspen grove that shelters from the wind without sheltering the views, the home offers expansive decks and a propane fire-pit with custom-made artisan steel logs for outdoor enjoyment. The property also features a trail system and an old hunting cabin, perfect for outdoor adventures. Included with the property is a Polaris tractor for traversing the snow.
The large heated detached 2 1/2 car garage and workshop includes a loft that can serve as an office, studio, or extra sleeping space.
Quality Craftsmanship
Originally built and recently remodeled by Ralph Lauren's builder, Allison Construction, the home boasts a robust structure with hand-chinked, hand-hewn logs reinforced with stone, beautifully contrasting with the modern interior.
