Description

Perched high above the Slate River with sweeping views from Paradise Divide to Mt. Crested Butte and the valley floor, Blue Heron Lodge is a rare Crested Butte legacy estate that offers privacy, space, and timeless design, just minutes from downtown and the ski area. Set on 13 fenced acres of open meadows and wildlife habitat, the property welcomes you through a gated entry into a thoughtfully designed mountain retreat. At its heart is the 6-bedroom, 6.5-bath main residence designed by Pursley Dixon Architecture, paired with Fox Den, a 3-bedroom, 2-bath guest house. A four-stall stable with tack room, additional grazing fields, a detached two-car garage, and a heated driveway complete the compound, creating a property that’s as functional as it is beautiful. The 5,288 SF main home exudes relaxed sophistication is anchored by wide stone chimneys, wrapped in reclaimed Georgian cypress paneling, and designed with gathering in mind. Expansive living areas open to a wraparound porch and lower patio with hot tub, where the outdoors is always within reach. Every bedroom carries its own custom millwork and details, blending comfort with craftsmanship. The 1,786 SF guest house mirrors the same quality and character, providing private accommodations for family and friends. In 2023, the property underwent a thoughtful renovation, updating bathrooms, A/V systems, septic systems, and the driveway, ensuring modern convenience without compromising its timeless appeal. With no HOA and two separately deeded parcels, the property offers flexibility for future generations. From the front gate, step directly onto the Lupine Trail or connect to ATV and snowmobile routes, your backyard is a launchpad for adventure. Yet, within 2 miles, you’re in the heart of Crested Butte, enjoying its restaurants, shops, and vibrant mountain culture. Blue Heron Lodge is more than a home, it’s a true Colorado experience of space, freedom, and connection to the land. Unobstructed views, conservation-protected surroundings, and unforgettable sunsets make this one of the most coveted estates in the valley.
