Perched on the coveted "Bench" in the Town of Crested Butte, this extraordinary mountain property offers a rare combination of privacy, convenience, versatility, and arguably some of the most commanding views available anywhere within town limits. Surrounded by protected open space and nestled among a small enclave of homes, the setting feels worlds away while remaining just minutes from everything Crested Butte has to offer. From this premier vantage point, enjoy breathtaking 360-degree panoramic views encompassing more than 20 iconic peaks, the entire Town of Crested Butte, Crested Butte Mountain, the valley floor below, and unforgettable alpine sunrises and sunsets that paint the surrounding landscape in ever-changing color. Positioned on one of the most desirable lots along the ridge due to its size and prominent projection, the property captures a perspective that few homes can match and none can easily replicate. Designed and built by a highly respected local contractor, the residence seamlessly blends mountain character with thoughtful functionality, efficiency, and craftsmanship. Grandfathered-in, natural gas, in-floor radiant heat throughout the home, and solar-assisted systems provide exceptional comfort while maintaining impressively low utility costs. The main living area was specifically designed to showcase the spectacular mountain setting through an expansive wall of windows that frame Crested Butte Mountain, the historic town below, and the surrounding peaks. Natural light pours into the home throughout the day, creating an inviting atmosphere that changes with the seasons. Anchoring the great room is a brand-new, never-used, built-in wood-burning fireplace compliant with town codes & providing the perfect gathering place on snowy winter evenings. The flexible floor plan offers remarkable versatility with 5+ bedrooms, 4.5 baths, an office, study, tv/game, laundry room, & workroom. Several spaces can easily be adapted to accommodate up to seven bedrooms, making the home exceptionally well-suited for large families, multigenerational living, or hosting guests. The primary suite serves as a private retreat featuring a walk-in shower, jacuzzi tub, dual closets, a sitting area, private balcony, and stunning mountain views. Several skylights further enhance the space with abundant natural light and views of the Colorado sky. The exterior showcases durable, low-maintenance Hardiplank siding accented by cedar beams and cedar shake details that complement the mountain setting. Mature landscaping, colorful perennial gardens, fenced dog yard, and a full irrigation system create beautiful outdoor spaces to enjoy throughout the summer months. Outdoor recreation begins immediately outside your door. Cross the road to access the groomed Nordic ski trail system during winter, enjoy the nearby Nordic Center and ice rink, or head directly to renowned hiking and biking trails, including the popular Green Lake Trail, during the warmer months. Elk Avenue's restaurants, galleries, coffee shops, boutiques, and nightlife are conveniently located just a 10-minute walk away. Located approximately 3 miles from Crested Butte Ski Area and 28 +/- miles from the Gunnison-Crested Butte Regional Airport, this property offers easy access for homeowners. Western Colorado University and the amenities of Gunnison are also nearby. Offering an unmatched combination of elevated views, protected surroundings, in-town walkability, flexible living arrangements, exceptional craftsmanship, energy efficiency, and direct access to year-round recreation, this is far more than a home - it is a front-row seat to everything that makes Crested Butte extraordinary!
