Public Remarks: Iconic Colorado cabin located on the fence line of the Town of Mt. Crested Butte, offering unobstructed views of Snodgrass Mountain and the Elk Mountain Range. The location was handpicked by the original owners who had first choice of any Paradise Road homesite. It can be argued that this was the first cabin on Paradise Road. This location has multiple mountain view corridors of Mount Crested Butte, Snodgrass, Avery Peak, White Mtn, and Whiterock Peak. The home is within walking distance of ski resort base area and is on the free shuttle route. These are the third owners in over 48 years to have enjoyed this classic mountain cabin. They call it their "Dream Cabin" and never planned to sell this beautiful original property, however life changes. So now is your time to be the steward of the "Stillman Bell Cabin". The cabin was renovated in 2008 with a mountain modern vibe and is "move-in ready" to be your Crested Butte recreation home-base.
