Description/Comments


Lot Size: 2 acre(s)
Garage: Garage
Property Type: Residential-Single Family Residence
Year Built: 2003
Notes: Nestled on 2.04 acres, this stunning mountain home offers breathtaking views of Eureka Peak, Mt. Elwell, and Beckwourth Peak, with extensive granite rock formations adding to its natural beauty. The home’s cedar plank siding and stone exterior blend seamlessly into the rugged landscape. A quartzite entry porch welcomes you inside, while the expansive west-facing back deck spans 850 sq. ft. across three connected levels, built with durable Ironwood hardwood.

This home features a 45-panel solar energy system with individual micro-inverters (installed in 2009 and upgraded with new generation micro-inverters in 2020). With over 200,000 kWh generated between 2009 through December 2024, this system significantly offsets electricity costs. The main entrance features natural stone flooring, a grand chandelier above, and an entry door framed on three sides by professionally hand-sculpted glass panels with a pine branch motif. Inside, the open-concept living space boasts a high-ceiling Great Room, a Dining Room with exposed beam ceilings, and a Kitchen, all seamlessly connected by Australian Cypress hardwood flooring. A natural river stone fireplace with an insert and quartzite hearth adds warmth and character to the Great Room, which also includes a built-in entertainment center. The Kitchen boasts granite countertops, a central island with a separate sink, warming oven, and casual seating; a propane cooktop, and upgraded electric appliances complete the kitchen. The travertine stone backsplash complements the overall elegant design. The downstairs primary suite includes a large walk-in closet, full bath, and jetted tub. The marble shower enclosure and countertops are accented with travertine stone and a heated ceramic tile floor. A second downstairs bedroom overlooks the front of the house, with a separate guest powder room featuring natural stone flooring, a pedestal sink, and custom lighting. Upstairs, a carpeted loft space provides a versatile area, in addition to a third bedroom with an en-suite full bath and ceramic tile flooring. Additional features include: - Geothermal heating and cooling - Ceiling fans in the Great Room and Primary Bedroom - Central vacuum system - Mudroom off the garage - Separate Laundry Room with sink and ceramic tile flooring - Custom Alder cabinetry throughout, including stair railings - Foundation: Full perimeter concrete crawl space - Garage: Attached three-car garage - Internet: High Speed Fiber-optic - Community: Gated “Firewise” designated community with access to an HOA and Community Services District (CSD). Restaurant, inn, golf, and Altitude recreation facilities are available separately. Optional Additional Lot: An adjacent 2.69-acre lot (117,176 sq. ft.) at 924 Dancing Bears is available for separate purchase. Featuring spectacular granite boulders and stunning views of Eureka Peak, this unimproved lot could serve as a buffer for privacy or as an extra additional dwelling unit (ADU) for multigenerational living or added income. See the separate listing for details.
