Property Description
Located in lower Placer Valley, just 15 miles south of the World Class Ski Resort Town of Breckenridge, this move-in-ready mountain retreat is situated beneath some of Colorado's renowned 14ers, with Mt. Bross, Mt. Lincoln, and Mt. Democrat rising just to the west. Step inside to a welcoming great room where large windows fill the space with natural light and a wood stove adds warmth on chilly Colorado evenings. The spacious, open kitchen and dining area make gathering with family and friends a breeze. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers a well-designed layout with inviting living areas, a convenient drop zone for everyday gear, and walk-in closets in both upper-level bedrooms for excellent storage. An oversized garage provides shelter for vehicles while leaving plenty of room for mountain toys, equipment, or a dedicated workshop. Recent improvements include exterior paint (2026), main-level LVP flooring (2026), a new garage roof and gutters (2024), water heater (2023), updated electrical panels and EV charging station (2021), plus kitchen and main-level bathroom remodels (2021). Perfectly suited for days spent outdoors, recreation is close at hand, with the Middle Fork of the South Platte River and Colorado State Lands just a short walk across the road. Nearby trails provide opportunities for cross-country skiing, biking, hiking, and four-wheeling throughout the seasons. After a day exploring the high country, unwind in the covered hot tub or enjoy the surrounding scenery from the spacious front deck. A backyard shed provides additional storage for gear and equipment. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, a weekend getaway, or an investment property, this Placer Valley home offers a welcoming base for enjoying all that Colorado's high country has to offer.
