Property Description
Blackjack Base Camp in Blackjack Gulch — Perched high on a hilltop with aspens and sweeping views of the valley below and overlooking your own spring-fed pond that draws deer, elk, moose, and bear right to your doorstep. This fully renovated mountain retreat offers a rare blend of rustic charm and high-end finishes on 35 private acres in Gold Basin High Country Ranches with YEAR ROUND ACCESS. Even the cell phone works from this home! Originally a 3-bedroom floor plan, the home has been totally gutted and thoughtfully reconfigured into a spacious 2-bedroom layout with an expanded, open-concept living area. Beautiful Asian walnut hardwood floors run throughout, along with new trim work and new doors, setting the tone for a truly custom interior. The chef's kitchen is a showstopper — custom, hand-hewn knotty alder cabinetry, slab granite countertops, a generous kitchen bar, a cast iron enamel farmhouse sink with pot filler, and a dual-fuel ILVE 8-burner range with griddle (propane/electric). A brand-new LG dishwasher and a propane-fired Unique Brand refrigerator complete the kitchen, while iron mesh paneling and floating shelves add character and smart storage throughout. Cozy up by the Lopi wood stove — an excellent backup heat source — or either of two thermostat-controlled Heat & Glo freestanding, ventless fireplaces on cool mountain evenings. Primary heat is supplied by propane forced air, fed by two 1000-gallon propane tanks, along with the fireplaces, for reliable comfort all winter long. Custom Alder sliding barn doors add warmth and rustic elegance throughout the home. Both bathrooms have been completely reimagined with designer tilework and curbless walk-in showers (one with a glass enclosure), plus custom Alder cabinetry and abundant built-in closet storage. Enjoy entertaining or watch the sunrise from the expansive exterior deck overlooking the valley below. This property is fully equipped for comfortable off-grid living: a 6-panel solar array feeds a 24-volt battery bank (housed in the exterior storage shed), with 4 additional backup panels included and a Champion backup generator for extra peace of mind. Enjoy on-demand hot water with a Rinnai tankless propane water heater. Outdoor enthusiasts and hunters will love the location — just 1/2 mile to BLM land and 2 miles to National Forest Service land, perfect for hunting and exploring by UTV. The property would make an ideal base camp as it is located within Game Management Unit 67, known for its trophy elk, mule deer, antelope & moose hunting. Year-round access is easy - thanks to the HOA's road maintenance program (winter and summer), for a minimal $600/year fee. Escape to your own private mountain sanctuary — a rare combination of rugged Colorado high country and elevated, custom comfort.
