Enchanting Mountain Chalet “Treehouse” with Breathtaking Views. Tucked away in the peaceful hills of the Sangre De Cristo Range, this charming mountain chalet feels like a serene sanctuary. Surrounded by the gentle embrace of towering Ponderosa pines, aspens, and native trees, this 2-bedroom, 2-bath home offers the perfect balance of comfort and character, nestled on 2 acres of meticulously cared-for land. With sweeping valley and mountain views as your backdrop, this is a home that invites you to relax, unwind, and reconnect with nature. From the moment you step inside, you’re welcomed by a warmth that radiates throughout. Wide plank European oak hardwood floors stretch through the home, and natural light pours in from every window, creating a bright, airy atmosphere. The cozy living area invite you to curl up by the wood stove on chilly evenings, while the balcony off the loft (perfect for an office or a third bedroom) offers a peaceful perch for gazing at the expansive mountain views, stars and the Milky Way during the new moon. This home’s versatile layout allows you to tailor it to your needs, whether you’re working, relaxing, or entertaining. The kitchen and bathrooms have been lovingly updated with custom finishes that feel both luxurious and earthy. The kitchen gleams with leathered Desert Canyon granite, rich with live edges, and the bathrooms feature custom built vanities and soft lighting, creating a tranquil space to unwind. Throughout the home, the upgraded rubbed oil bronze hardware on the kitchen cabinets and doors adds a subtle touch of sophistication, while the upgraded lighting, inside and out, casts a soft glow over every corner. Every detail has been considered to make this home as comfortable and functional as it is beautiful. New electrical switches, plates, and GCFIs enhance the flow of the home, while the custom spiral staircase, crafted from salvaged beetle-kill pine, adds a touch of rustic elegance. The newer stainless-steel kitchen appliances, fresh paint, and newer washer and dryer all make life here effortless, while the several cords of cured firewood, split and stacked on the property, will keep you cozy all winter long. Step outside, and you’re immediately immersed in nature. A quiet creek flows just a thousand feet away, its gentle murmur heard from the deck and patios. Explore the unique geodesic dome greenhouse with its solar-powered waterfall, or wander the nearby trails that lead straight to the serene South Crestone Lake and Willow Creek Lake trailheads. With abundant wildlife all around and the peaceful solitude of the land, you’ll feel as though the world has slowed down just for you. Perched at the pinnacle of the coveted Chalet I neighborhood, this enchanting location offers breathtaking surroundings and perfectly positioned between the Great Sand Dunes National Park and the Rio Grande National Forest, offering a rare opportunity to experience the magic of Colorado’s wild beauty, while being part of a close-knit community. This is more than a home—it’s a retreat, a haven, a place to find peace and connection. If you’ve been dreaming of a cozy, magical escape into the heart of nature, come and experience the tranquility of this mountain paradise.
