An absolutely incredible location above the historic Town of Crested Butte and the Slate River, 426 Saddle Ridge Ranch enjoys horizon-to-horizon views of our surrounding peaks and the upper valley. Dan Murphy Architect and Jack Huckins General Contractor combined their award winning talents to create this masterpiece. Completed in 2018, every square foot of the home enjoys beautiful craftsmanship and thoughtful design elements. From the incredible beam and truss details to the reclaimed wood floors and stone fireplaces to the forged iron rails and accents no detail was forgotten with this amazing creation. The home’s layout puts the primary bedroom suite on the same level as the kitchen, dining, living and main covered decks. Downstairs there is another living room with a stone fireplace, a wet bar, three bedrooms including a big bunk room that sleeps six, three designer baths, a second laundry room and access to another set of covered decks and the backyard.Above the spacious, two-car 725 SF heated garage the study, a fifth bedroom and another bathroom offer a private “wing” for guests or remote working. The rare 3.16 acre parcel borders 49 acres of permanent open space and features it’s own pond with a view of Mt Crested Butte. Out back the amphitheater’s stone benches and gas fire pit face the valley below creating opportunity for fun evening gatherings during the summer. Other than amazing 360 degree views, open spaces, the equestrian barn and the big community pond, Saddle Ridge Ranch owners benefit from a highly convenient and central location. You can get to dinner on Elk Avenue or up to the ski slopes inside of ten minutes! The Lupine Trail begins just up the street and the paved, non-motorized Rec Path is easily accessed across from the entrance of Saddle Ridge Ranch.
