Conveniently located near Lake Haviland, Purgatory Resort, and the many outdoor attractions of Southwest Colorado, this home offers a comfortable base for enjoying the area in every season.

Spend the day exploring the surrounding mountains, then return home and gather on the large deck for an alfresco meal at the outdoor table. Take in the dramatic Hermosa Cliffs, which rise approximately 1,800 feet and stretch from the community of Hermosa toward Purgatory Mountain Resort. As the day winds down, settle into the new private hot tub and soak while enjoying the mountain setting.

The area's outdoor recreation is right at your fingertips. Lake Haviland State Park is just two miles away, while Bear Ranch is also approximately two miles away for horseback riding.

Winter brings even more opportunities for adventure, with cross-country skiing near Purgatory Resort and downhill skiing and snowboarding available at resorts throughout the region. Silverton Mountain Ski Area, Telluride Ski Resort, and other mountain destinations provide options for exploring beyond the immediate area.

Inside, sun-filled spaces and elevated rustic decor create a warm and comfortable atmosphere. After a full day outdoors, gather in the lounge area, stoke the wood-burning fireplace, and settle onto the plush sofa with a cup of cocoa and a favorite movie.

The well-appointed kitchen features stainless steel appliances and a large island, providing plenty of space to prepare meals together. Whether you're making breakfast before heading out for the day or preparing dinner after an adventure, the kitchen offers a welcoming place to gather and enjoy time together.
