Tucked into 2.5 acres of ponderosa pine and aspen at the top of Trout Creek Pass, this 1,216 sq ft mountain cabin in Ranch of the Rockies (Western Union Ranch) is your blank canvas at roughly 9,400 feet. The bones are in place and the heavy lifting is done. The buyer brings the finishes. The 1.5 story home sits proudly on a knoll with stained vertical wood siding, a gable roof with comp shingle, and a generous wraparound wood deck (256 sq ft) elevated on posts to capture the views and the breeze through the trees. A walk-out lower area, gravel drive, and rock retaining wall complete the exterior. Inside, the main level offers an open great room with sliding glass doors to the deck, a freestanding efficient wood stove for cozy winter nights, forced air heat, and rough-in for the kitchen and full bath. A solid-built open stairway leads to the upper level with a primary bedroom framing the treetops, plus space roughed in for a second bedroom and storage. Drywall is hung in many areas, insulation is in place upstairs, and the open beam ceiling is ready for your finish of choice. The big-ticket infrastructure is already done: a drilled well, a brand new septic system, and power on site. The property does not have a Certificate of Occupancy, so the next owner will finish the interior and complete the C of O process. This is the rare chance to finish a cabin exactly the way you want without starting from raw land. Ranch of the Rockies is one of Park County's most amenity-rich communities. Owners enjoy a private stocked fishing reservoir, riding arena and horse pasture, community pavilion, trash drop and burn pit, summer RV dump and water fill, and year-round county-maintained roads. Location is the win: about 25 minutes to Buena Vista for groceries, dining, the Arkansas River and the Collegiate Peaks, 35 minutes to Salida, and a short drive to Antero, Spinney, and Eleven Mile reservoirs for world-class trout fishing. Sold as-is. Bring your vision.
