About the Property
Top of the mountain privacy, panoramic views and a perfect setting. Located near Crested Butte this would be an amazing spot to call home with commanding views of Axtell Mountain, Mt. Emmons, Gothic Mountain and the incredible Elk Mountain Range to the north. Trappers Crossing is a special ranch community consisting of big, secluded 35+ acre properties, private well maintained roads and amazing access to the public land amenities that surround Crested Butte. This particular property borders 280 acres of forested BLM land and enjoys a private access point to the Green Lake Trail and 15,000 acres of US Forest Service lands. What you are looking at is the guest house with a modified garage space. The covenants allow for the addition of a main house with a total maximum build out on the land up to 11,000 SF. The home is on a consistent well and the property's existing septic system was engineered to support full build out of the property, another bonus. It's about an 18 minute drive down the hill to the Town of Crested Butte. Go the other direction on County Road 12 and spend the day paddling or fishing on Lake Irwin. In the winter, the backcountry ski touring, snowmobiling and cat skiing at Irwin is hard to beat!
