Nestled on 4,000 private acres of the Glade Ranch in the
San Juan Nat’l Forest, this custom built two story, gated ranch
getaway, has all the comforts you want in a vacation home. Truly
a “get-away”, you are 30+ miles up into the San Juan Mountains.
Wall to wall picture windows downstairs and up, a large covered
porch and upstairs balcony provide serene mountain and valley views
of aspen, spruce, firs, Gamble oak and wildflowers. Watching
bluebirds, hummingbirds, magpie or eagle; chipmunk, ground squirrel,
or looking for grouse, elk or mule deer, nature
is all around you…
With southwest interior of skipped trawl walls and tiled floors
throughout, excepting carpeted bedrooms & oak floored loft, this
fully equipped home has a beautifully styled modern kitchen with
island, complete with utensils, dishes/pots/pans, coffee pot,
microwave, gas range/oven, refrig/freezer, and dishwasher, etc.
House is more than well insulated for comfort during any season.
Breakfast area/dining room connect with the large vaulted ceiling
main room, showcasing the ceiling high stone fireplace and panoramic
picture windows.
The views of the valley below and the surrounding mountains from the
large covered back porch or the upstairs balconey are what makes
this home very special...pictures just don't do it justice...believe
us. On the back porch in the evening at the grill (or with a cup of
coffee in the morn), or upstairs on the balcony overlooking the
beautiful valley for which our home view was specifically built,
they were built for "the view".... At night stargaze the Milky Way
from horizon to horizon (astronomer’s dream!)…or just relax in front
of the log fireplace with a book or with the stereo in the
background from the entertainment center…or just catch up on one of
our library's many DVD/VCR movies…
Two (2) large master bedrooms with new twin beds (extra long…
can be pulled together…); new bunk beds in the spacious loft, and a
queen sofa sleeper downstairs allows the house to sleep up to eight
(8) with ease. Large walk-in closets, marbled walk-in showers,
antique bathroom fixtures and ceiling fans throughout will make your
stay extra comfortable.
An extra large two (2) truck garage houses the tankless water
heater, washer & dryer, and connects to main house by a mudroom.
Total living, excluding garage & mudroom, is 1,750+ sq. ft.
Additional pictures of inside (or outside views) are avilable upon
request by email (there isn't enough ad space to show everything
you'll have available in the house!)
You are in the Four Corners….Mesa Verde National Park (Cliff
Dwellers), Durango, Telluride, Ouray, Silverton (Durango to
Silverton railroad...)…a few hours away from Arches National Park,
Lake Powell, Grand Canyon and more…
Fly fish the Dolores for rainbow, brown & cutthroat; or Colorado’s
largest reservoir, the McPhee, stocked with walleye, lake trout,
large & small mouth bass. Just 1 ½-2 hr. away, are the San Miguel &
Animas Rivers. Hiking, ATV’s, photography…. Four wheel drive
vehicles are suggested in certain mountain areas, especially
during wet season.
Example of a day trip…a spectacular scenic morning drive awaits you
up from Dolores along its beautiful namesake river to Wilson Peak,
by Trout Lake and through famous, rugged Lizard Head Pass to
Telluride. Head on around for lunch in Ouray, one of the most
picturesque mountain towns in the US, then on to Silverton (narrow
gauge railroad) and through the mountains back down to Durango for
dinner...or,
One day at Mesa Verde…awesome! Or, a Silverton train ride through
the mountains…an open air jeep trip above Telluride…a raft trip on
the Animas…
What more can we tell you…its emotional country…
