With unsurpassed mountain views, this property consists of a three-bedroom luxury log home nestled on 20 acres with a pond and unobstructed views of woods, meadows, and mountains.
This is a vacation retreat your family has always dreamed of -- nestled in an expansive valley only 10 minutes from the resort community of Pagosa Springs, Colorado. Your vacation at Mountain View Ranch will be a one-of-a-kind experience, allowing you all the privacy you desire with all the conveniences you deserve. Imagine waking up to majestic mountain peaks overlooking a private valley and sipping coffee on the deep back porch. Or grab a blanket and a glass of wine as you retreat to the porch for a spectacular mountain sunset. Off the porch is a patio with a fire pit where you can enjoy S’mores and hot chocolate while stargazing at the brightest night sky you’ve ever seen.
Views to the north reveal the San Juan range and Pagosa Peak with their spruce, fir, and aspen forests. Nature abounds here regardless of the season. We have seen Canada geese and mallard ducks on the pond with their babies, elk and deer, and even foxes diving into the snow for their breakfast all from the back porch! Enjoy the hummers and numerous other area birds at the feeders as well as red-tailed hawks and great blue herons. You may even glimpse a bald eagle or golden eagle as they soar above. All to be heard are the sounds of nature.
The single-story home is built with full logs of hand-drawn Canadian spruce and is nicely appointed with a spacious feel. With three bedrooms, two living areas and an impressive master suite, this is a retreat your friends and family will talk about for years to come. The living room boasts a picture-book view of the mountains and a stone fireplace with gas log starter. The main living area has an open design with a large dining table that seats eight. The recently updated kitchen has new granite countertops, new ledger stone backsplash, new sink and dishwasher, new cooktop, and new overhead lighting all installed in 2020. The large central island seats six. The master suite features a king-sized bed, walk-in closet, and a luxury bathroom with jetted soaking tub and tiled shower. French doors open from the master bedroom onto the back deck where you can enjoy a stunning view of the San Juan Range. and access the seven person spa. Each of the guest bedrooms have queen size beds with closets, and the south guest bedroom opens onto the front porch. The separate study can be closed off for work or online meetings and can then be opened up to serve as a second living area with access to the front porch. It also has a sleeper sofa. In-floor heating means the house stays toasty on the coldest days and you’ll never step onto a cold floor. High speed wireless internet and steaming TV are included.
There's a separate horse stable with an upstairs apartment where our property manager lives. You will never know he is there unless you need him.
We know you will enjoy the peace and solitude of this special place with national forest access just across the road and an abundance of hiking, ATV, and snowmobile trails to explore in the nearby mountains.
Mountain View Ranch will meet your needs perfectly in all seasons. Wolf Creek Ski Area boasts more snow than any Colorado ski resort and is only 28 miles away (visit https://wolfcreekski.com/ for more information). Back at the ranch, a well-plowed and maintained driveway will allow you easy winter access not only to the ski area, but also the famous hot springs and downtown shopping. A sledding hill in the back yard makes things even more fun if you plan on bringing the young ones (or the young at heart!).
Once you've visited, we are sure you'll want to come back!
