Tucked among whispering pines on 5.2 acres, this mountain estate is where refined living meets the wild beauty of Colorado. Just 10 minutes from the charming town of Westcliffe, the home feels like it was placed exactly where it belongs-cradled by trees, framed by commanding views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, and designed to welcome both quiet mornings and lively gatherings with equal grace. As you follow the drive through the trees, the home slowly emerges-like a well-kept secret. Step inside, and the main level opens in a warm embrace. A wood stove anchors the living room, the kind that turns chilly mountain evenings into scenes from a storybook. The kitchen is the true heart of the home. Quartz countertops gleam against custom cabinetry. A deep farmhouse sink and double wall ovens stand ready for holiday feasts and weekend baking marathons, while an eat-in island invites conversation as meals come together. Each of the two main-level bedrooms is its own private retreat, complete with ensuite bathrooms. A 1/2 bath in the living area ensures guests feel right at home. Downstairs, the walk-out basement offers a world of possibilities. The family room is anchored by a pellet stove that radiates steady warmth, creating a relaxed space for game nights, movie marathons, or a cozy library nook. A third bedroom with an ensuite bath offers additional accommodations. A touch of finish work remains-a rare opportunity to infuse your personal vision without the weight of a full renovation. Step outside, and the landscape takes the lead. Towering pines filter soft breezes, creating a natural sense of calm. The Sangres rise in the distance, dramatic and unwavering, changing their colors with the shifting light. Morning coffee becomes a ritual. Evenings stretch long on the deck as the last golden light slips behind the peaks, and the night sky-untouched by city glare-takes its turn to dazzle.
