Here is an incredible opportunity to buy a beautiful homesite in Mt. Crested Butte and be a step ahead of the game right from the start. The seller has completed all of the soils tests, surveys, topography plus has a full set of building plans for a gorgeous custom home designed and ready to be built by Laggis Design & Construction. The builder would love to work with you to build the home they have designed or would be willing to work with you on a redesign of the current plans or help you design a whole new concept. This . 85 acre lot is perfectly positioned on a sloping and elevated hillside with amazing views of Mt. Crested Butte and the mountains down valley. It also has super easy access to the rec path that connects you to Downtown Crested Butte and hundreds of miles of single track surrounding Mt. Crested Butte. The free shuttle stop is just a few steps from the lot that will whisk you down to the slopes for an epic powder day. If you are more of the walking type, it is even possible to walk to the base area - which is actually pretty rare. By the time spring rolls around, you can be breaking ground! This is an amazing opportunity to build your dream home in the coolest ski town in Colorado.
