A True Colorado Mountain Retreat in Lake Purgatory! Set among towering pines and aspens in the desirable Lake Purgatory subdivision, this inviting mountain home offers the perfect combination of privacy, comfort, and proximity to Purgatory Resort. Ideally located near the entrance to Lake Purgatory and Columbine Lake, the property features sweeping views of the Hermosa Cliffs and the new Colorado Couloir lift coming soon to Purgatory Resort. Inside, the home captures the warmth and character of mountain living. The spacious 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom floor plan is complemented by a bonus bunk room on the garage level and sleeping loft on the third level, creating plenty of room for friends and guests. A beautifully crafted vaulted wood ceiling makes a dramatic statement in the main living area, while the stacked-stone fireplace, expansive chef’s kitchen, and abundant natural light create a warm and inviting gathering space. Windows are perfectly placed in the main living area and feature automatic blinds to start enjoying the views right away. Thoughtful finishes and quality craftsmanship throughout give the home a distinctive mountain character that feels both comfortable and refined. The outdoor living space is equally impressive. An expansive covered deck extends the living area into the surrounding forest, with a six-person hot tub and fire pit table creating the perfect setting for après-ski relaxation, summer evenings, and stargazing beneath the mountain sky. The top of the hill location creates a great sense of privacy. The home is being offered fully furnished and completely turnkey, allowing you to arrive and immediately begin enjoying your mountain retreat. The property also offers exceptional rental potential for those looking to combine personal use with investment opportunity. A garage with multiple storage lockers provides ample room for skis, bikes, and other mountain gear, while keeping vehicles protected during the winter months. Recent improvements include a French drain and a new concrete patio at the back of the home, addition of a new six-person hot tub, a brand-new hot water heater in January 2026, a new water softener and washer/dryer, exterior and deck repainting in 2024, and a radon mitigation system. With Purgatory Resort, Nugget Mountain Bar, and Columbine Lake all just minutes away, you'll have year-round access to skiing, snowboarding, mountain biking, hiking, fishing, and endless opportunities to enjoy the outdoors. Whether you're looking for a private mountain escape, a gathering place for friends and guests, or a turnkey investment opportunity, this Lake Purgatory gem offers the ideal Colorado mountain lifestyle in an exceptional setting.
