"Keep close to Nature's heart", John Muir advised. It's a task made easy from this dazzling, custom mountain home on over 2.79 private wooded acres, moments from national forest access. The serene, mountain vistas from your expansive back deck and the sunshine that floods into this home from its many windows add to that close-to-nature feel. Weekends will be all about outings to neighboring Eldora ski area or having friends over as you entertain from your well-appointed kitchen, with custom cabinetry, granite counters, high-end appliances and hardwood floors. Downstairs, a refinished walk-out basement features a luxe wet bar and gas stove, sure to be the scene of many gatherings, and an additional bedroom and full bath with heated floors to delight guests. This sprawling, forested lot is nestled in Nederland's coveted "banana belt" area (where it tends to be sunnier, warmer and stiller) and a location just 10 minutes from downtown Ned and 20 minutes from Boulder via a shortcut road.
