Anchored by Buckeye Creek, framed by unobstructed panoramic views of Mt. Elbert & Mt. Massive (Colorado’s highest 14ers), and bordered by the San Isabel National Forest, this 50+ acre legacy mountain estate is the trailhead to your private Colorado adventure. Fall asleep to the sound of the creek and wake to an expansive landscape entirely your own. Enjoy proximity to world-class skiing while maintaining exceptional privacy - 20 minutes from Copper Mountain Resort, even closer to Ski Cooper, and minutes from historic Leadville. Step off the back deck for access to 60+ miles of trails for hiking, Nordic skiing, snowmobiles, ATVs, and fly fishing directly from your property. Explore Buckeye Lake, take on the terrain of Birdseye Gulch, or cast for trout in your own stretch of water. The home itself is extraordinary—seven fireplaces, five private guest suites, a sixteen-person bunk room, and hand-crafted details that reflect time, intention, and care. Balancing scale with craftsmanship, the great room’s soaring timber beams, dramatic stonework, and walls of windows bring the outdoors in & capture sweeping mountain views. Transition from quiet family moments to large-scale entertaining with a natural flow between living areas. The kitchen is made for cooking and gathering with stone surfaces, custom cabinets, and a professional-grade range. The primary suite features its own fireplace and a spa-worthy bath. A hot tub overlooking the creek, a sauna, fire pit, and relaxed indoor-outdoor living spaces complete the residence. Evenings here are defined by mountain air & moving water in a setting that feels both rare & enduring. This is the place your family & guests will reminisce about for the rest of their lives - playing in Buckeye Creek, exploring the mountain, & unforgettable summers. Private acreage, creek frontage and access to public land (including the legendary Sangree Hut) define this Colorado legacy property built to be experienced & revisited season after season.
