Description

This exceptional custom-built home in the Eagle Peak Ranch area of Fremont County offers a stunning mountain setting, quality craftsmanship, and direct access to public lands. Located near Cotopaxi, Colorado, the property combines a private wooded landscape with expansive views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, Pikes Peak, Greenhorn Mountain, and the surrounding ranges.

The residence includes two bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms, designed with an A-frame vaulted ceiling that frames the breathtaking mountain views through towering windows from floor to peak. The main living area features wood-clad walls, a large stone fireplace with a red cedar mantle, and warm natural finishes that create a comfortable mountain atmosphere. The open-concept design flows naturally into a well-equipped kitchen and dining area, designed to accommodate daily living and guest entertainment alike.

The upper half-story loft offers full-height space within the bedroom, enhanced by the vaulted ceiling. It also includes a small office area overlooking the main living room below, providing a cozy and functional workspace while maintaining the open, airy feel of the home’s design with an inspiring mountain backdrop.

The home also features multiple decks, patios, and outdoor gathering areas that take full advantage of the panoramic mountain scenery. The property’s orientation captures sunrises over the Wet Mountain Valley and sunsets over the Sangres, with a lower meadow below the home providing an excellent setting for wildlife viewing.

Wildlife is abundant, with deer, elk, bear, and smaller species frequently traversing the property and surrounding lands. Prospective buyers are encouraged to view the “Trail Camera” tab on the main listing to see photos of wildlife captured on-site.

The property also includes an oversized deep garage and a 40x30 shop/barn, offering generous space for vehicles, equipment, or recreational gear. The layout and access make it suitable for both full-time residence and recreational retreat use.

This parcel borders tens of thousands of acres of Bureau of Land Management land, allowing for direct access to vast public terrain for hiking, hunting, and ATV use. The property is within GMU 86, a popular area for big game hunting. As mentioned, deer and elk are regularly seen right from the home, with a multitude of other species making appearances as well.

The home is being sold furnished with quality pieces throughout, including living room, bedroom, and dining furnishings, as well as a full suite of modern appliances. These inclusions allow for immediate use upon purchase without the need for additional setup.

Access to the property is convenient yet private. Well-maintained gravel roads lead approximately 1.5 miles from Highway 1A to the home, just a short distance from Highway 69. The property is part of the Eagle Peak Ranch subdivision, which maintains private roads through a modest $300 annual fee. There are no restrictive covenants or HOA rules beyond this basic maintenance agreement, allowing flexibility for property use and enjoyment.

The surrounding area offers abundant recreation. The Arkansas River, just a short drive away, provides outstanding opportunities for fishing, rafting, and kayaking. Additional nearby attractions include the mountain towns of Cotopaxi (approximately 10 minutes), Westcliffe (about 30 minutes), and Canon City (roughly 45 minutes), each offering dining, shopping, and access to services. Monarch Mountain, just over an hour away, offers skiing and snowboarding in the winter months.

The terrain is primarily wooded with piñon pine, juniper, ponderosa pine, and oak brush, with open grassy meadows and rock outcroppings that enhance both the scenery and habitat diversity. This environment offers an excellent balance between privacy, accessibility, and recreation, making it ideal for those seeking a residence or getaway in Colorado’s mountain country.

With its quality construction, impressive views, direct public land access, and thoughtful layout, this home represents a well-rounded mountain property offering true year-round usability in a peaceful setting
