Beautifully finished new custom cabin (2025) on 5.26 acres awaits you in the picturesque Sangre de Cristo range of the Rocky Mountains. This year-round mountain home features tongue-in-groove vaulted ceilings, an open floor-plan, and southern exposure for passive solar warmth. The cabin is mostly off-grid, with a very efficient Rinnai propane wall heater, tankless water heater, and back-up auto-on whole-house propane generator. With Reliable 1,250-gallon cistern and local water delivery easy and convenient! Underground high-speed fiber optic internet was recently installed at the property, providing your internet connection to the outside world. Work from home with no interruptions, from the upstairs loft with a second (non-conforming) bedroom that doubles as an office or studio. Year-round access on County maintained roads and rare snowfalls over a few inches make this a perfect place to live full-time. Enjoy the peace and quiet, regular wildlife sightings, a delightfully cool summer escape from the heat, and a cozy winter retreat. Soak up the sun from the spacious deck while gazing upon near and distant mountains and planning your fishing trip to nearby Mountain Home Lake, Taos, NM, or the Great Sand Dunes National Park. Property has a recent survey. Pretty much all of the furniture has been removed, so it is a blank slate for you! A must see! GPS: 37.4835,-105.3118
