About 1294 County Road 734
Rare opportunity to own a treasured Crested Butte legacy property perched above the Slate River. This large family compound is surrounded by open space, abundant wildlife, breathtaking views and is only minutes from town and the mountain. Occupying 13 fenced acres overlooking the Slate River with wide open vistas down valley and up Paradise Divide, this rare Crested Butte property embodies cultured western elegance while offering the height of luxury in space and silence, all less than 2 miles from downtown Crested Butte. The gated entry opens onto a property that includes Blue Heron Lodge, a 6 bedroom, 6 and a half bath home designed by architect Pursley Dixon and Fox Den, a 3 bedroom, 2 bath guest house, as well as a 4 stall stable with tack room, grazing fields and an additional freestanding 2 car garage and heated driveway. The comfort, warmth and authenticity of the 5,288 sf main house and 1,786 sf guest house in combination with the natural extravagance of the site is irresistible. The architecture of the main house combines the invigorating expansive elements of the mountain setting, while creating small subtle moments that provide the house with a sense of intimacy. With a priority of well made, high quality materials and details, the property is a quintessential example of classic timeless elegance; a quiet luxury vibe that can be hard to find in mountain ski towns. The choice of materials emphasize a balance of comfort and ruggedness with interiors completely framed in reclaimed Georgian Cyprus paneling, selected specifically for this property. Wide chimneys for fires anchor two main living spaces creating gathering areas and every bedroom is unique with custom details and millwork. A large wraparound porch and lower level patio with hot tub, further connects the interiors with the expansive outdoor elements. This property is the ultimate American experience of freedom and space, surrounded by undisturbed land with views protected by conservation land. The property consists of two separately deeded lots and is not encumbered with an HOA. A restoration in 2023 upgraded bathrooms, A/V systems, septic systems, driveway and much more. This unparalleled location allows for direct access to the Lupine trail and easy access to ATV and snowmobile trails, providing endless recreation opportunities. A favorite property locally, this compound is a must see, as location, views, custom details and recent renovations are unparalleled in the valley. The mountains, river views, blue skies and unbelievable sunsets down valley are breathtaking with every room offering views of nature, trees and animals. This property feels worlds away and yet is minutes from a thriving town and a world of recreation possibilities.
