River corridor and Sand Mountain north of Steamboat Springs, this 2,446 s.f. custom home on 6 acres was strategically oriented to ensure the views would forever be protected. A well-designed floorplan with intelligent features, the home has long views of the grazing cattle and horses on the surrounding ranchlands. The beautiful, conserved landscapes are framed by giant windows that provide a front-row seat to the changing seasons, brilliant stars, and passing wildlife. The immaculately maintained 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath home features handmade cherry cabinetry and shelving and a floor-to-ceiling wood-burning rock fireplace. The kitchen features a 5-burner gas range, warming drawer, granite counters, and a prep sink. A walk-in pantry and wet bar provide additional storage and counter space. The large, covered wrap-around deck provides great space for outdoor entertaining. A detached 3-car garage/shop has concrete floors and plenty of loft storage. The property is fenced and cross-fenced. Horseback riding, biking, and hiking on public lands are within a few miles of the property. The area is surrounded by over a million acres of public land. Steamboat Lake and Pearl Lake, two local state parks, are nearby as is Hahn’s Peak Lake, a beautiful high-mountain reservoir in the national forest. Snowmobile trails are maintained on many miles of national forest roads and cross-county ski routes are maintained at the Steamboat Lake State Park. The Clark Store is just a mile and a half from the property and there are a few local restaurants in the area. Clark has an award-winning K-8 charter school, a staffed fire station, and a country store/deli/post-office. Steamboat Springs, home to the state’s second-largest ski resort, is fewer than 20 miles to the south. Special attention was given to the design, location, and construction of the home; it is the ideal base from which to enjoy the long list of great things to do in a scenic mountain town.
