Buckhorn Creek Home

Land Description

Buckhorn Creek Home is situated on 40 +/- acres in Bellvue, Colorado. This fantastic cabin overlooks a beautiful meadow and scenic Buckhorn Creek. This top notch build is outfitted to be a full time residence or a weekend getaway. Whether you are looking for a weekend getaway or a mountain home outside of town, this property caters to the needs of all.

Land

This 40 +/- acre property has a gentle sloping topography and borders Roosevelt National Forest on two sides, giving it a big, open feel with tons of room to roam. It's peaceful and quiet, yet just an hour from Fort Collins. Buckhorn Road runs through the land for easy reliable year round access, with Buckhorn Creek flowing alongside-adding to the charm. While a fair portion of the property was affected by the 2020 Cameron Peak Fire, the main meadow and much of the north side remain untouched. The regrowth throughout the acreage is encouraging and it will continue to recover with time and other land management practices like logging and mulching.

Improvements

Built in 2016, this 2,278 SF cabin blends mountain charm with modern comfort. With 1,234 SF above grade and 1,044 SF below, the open floor plan features tall ceilings, abundant windows, and a stone wood-burning fireplace. The spacious primary suite includes a beautiful view, oversized shower, and double sinks. The basement offers a bedroom, full bath, office, and tall ceilings with a large family room. Both east and west-facing porches overlook the meadow and creek viewing the meadow and listening to the creek. The cabin is powered by solar with a backup generator, a well, propane, a furnace, and an on-demand hot water heater. A slab is in place for a potential attached two-car garage. Across from the cabin sits a 960 SF shop which is rare for properties in the area. Built in 2014, the shop has concrete floors, a large lean-to for tractor storage tractor included, and plenty of space for equipment. The shop currently draws power via an extension from the cabin. No detail was overlooked in the design and setup of this exceptional Northern Colorado mountain retreat.
