Luxury Creekfront home bordering National Forest! Private, quiet, paved roads and driveway, gated community and 100gm well! WOW!!! Tucked away on 11 private acres at the end of a paved driveway in the prestigious gated Bear Creek community, this exceptional 4+ bedroom, 4.5-bath mountain retreat offers a rare combination of luxury, craftsmanship, privacy, and direct access to the Colorado outdoors. Located only five minutes from the Rio Grande Club and Resort, you have premier golf and world-class fly fishing waters just waiting for you to step out and enjoy them. In addition, there are 20 acres of community open space along the Rio Grande River just outside the neighborhood gate! Built by Hathorn Construction, widely regarded as one of the premier custom builders in the South Fork area, this 3,160-square-foot home showcases the quality and attention to detail that have made Hathorn homes so sought after. Massive exposed timber trusses, soaring ceilings, custom cabinetry, hand-selected finishes, and walls of windows create a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout the home. The stunning great room centers around a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace while expansive windows frame the surrounding forest and mountain landscape. The chef's kitchen was designed for gathering and entertaining, featuring a six-burner gas range, double ovens, a built-in microwave, a dishwasher, a prep sink, and a spacious center island. Adjacent to the kitchen, the oversized dining area comfortably accommodates large gatherings after a day of skiing, fishing, hiking, horseback riding, or exploring the surrounding mountains. The home offers four spacious bedroom suites, each with its own private luxury bathroom. The primary suite features a spa-inspired bathroom with dual vanities, a soaking tub, generous closet space, and ample room to unwind after a day outdoors. Two lower-level bedroom suites feature private exterior entrances, providing flexibility and privacy for guests. An additional room is currently used as a bunk room and offers extra sleeping space, though it is not included in the official bedroom count. Outdoor living is every bit as impressive as the interior. Three covered porches provide multiple spaces for relaxing, dining, and entertaining while enjoying the peaceful mountain surroundings. The included hot tub offers the perfect place to soak beneath some of Colorado's darkest night skies, where countless stars fill the horizon. Nearby, a large boulder fire pit creates the ideal setting for gathering with friends and family after a day spent hiking, fishing, or playing in the creek. One of the property's most remarkable features is its water supply. According to Colorado Division of Water Resources records, the well produced an incredible 100 gallons per minute when drilled in 2004. Water production of this magnitude is extraordinarily rare in the mountains and represents a valuable long-term asset that few properties can match. Natural landscaping complements the surrounding environment while requiring minimal maintenance. Paved roads, gated access, and protective community covenants help preserve the beauty and value of the neighborhood while providing convenient year-round access. South Fork's restaurants, shopping, golf course, river activities, and everyday services are only about ten minutes away. The current owners have routinely had the pine trees on the property treated with pheromone packs to protect them from bark beetles, so your trees will remain healthy and beautiful for years to come. Properties offering private creek frontage, direct access to the National Forest, exceptional well production, luxury construction, and complete privacy rarely come to market. This is Colorado mountain living at its finest.
