Nestled at the base of Silver Mountain, just 10 miles east of Gardner, this custom log home sits on 116 breathtaking acres of pristine Colorado mountain landscape. The setting offers unmatched privacy, expansive views, and a true connection to nature. Enjoy your own private wilderness with 4x4 trails, hiking access to members-only BLM land, camping opportunities, and abundant wildlife. Elk bugle nearby, deer roam freely, turkeys gobble, bighorn sheep climb the ridges, bears wander the area, and eagles soar overhead—this property is a natural paradise. A burned oak fence leads you into this secluded oasis. The land is well-equipped with a productive well, 4,000-gallon cisterns, and a 4-space RV park with full hookups, along with a bunkhouse and shower house, making it ideal for entertaining or hosting guests. The massive log construction provides exceptional insulation and timeless mountain character. The home stays warm in winter with two wood stoves, radiant in-floor heat, while remaining naturally cool during the summer months.
Inside, a chef's kitchen fills the home with warmth and inviting aromas, while the bedroom suite offers a peaceful retreat complete with a soaking tub. The 1,400+ sq ft basement built with ICF blocks provides ample space for future expansion, storage, or creative use.
Additional features include two 9' x 40' Conex containers, ready to be roofed and converted into a shop, barn, or garage. A rare blend of rugged beauty and modern comfort, this one-of-a-kind mountain retreat brings a vision from the past to life with today's conveniences.
