This country home on acreage has one of the most gorgeous views of Mt. Sopris and the Elk Mountain Range in the Roaring Fork Valley. The home has a stunning setting from the top of Missouri Heights, one of the most pleasant areas in a beautiful part of Colorado only 45 minutes from Aspen. Situated on a 5-acre lot, the 2,068-square-foot home has an open floor plan with 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, a large living room and dining area, spacious kitchen with breakfast bar, and a 2-car attached garage. The home has in-floor radiant heat, solar panels, and large south-facing windows to take in the view. It is possible to fence the 5 acres and keep horses there.
Missouri Heights is a vast area north of Carbondale that is known as an agrarian oasis, with many larger properties and open vistas of irrigated hayfields, sagebrush meadows, pinyon-juniper forests, and terrific views of Mt. Sopris and the Elk Mountain Range. This particular 5-acre parcel is situated on a knoll above Missouri Heights that overlooks the entire tableau. The views will never be ruined by another home in the foreground, as the lot slopes downhill with no possibility of construction below. Mule deer are frequent visitors to the property and are commonly seen in the area, as well as elk, predators such as fox and coyotes, and a variety of songbirds and raptors.
Roaring Fork Valley locals consider Panorama Ranches a premium neighborhood because the homeowners’ association is reasonable, the roads are well maintained, and dues are only $500 per quarter, which includes water. Domestic water is provided through high-producing wells and stored in a 100,000-gallon tank to distribute to the development. In the event that a new owner would like to build a shop building or larger detached garage, there is plenty of relatively flat space on this parcel to accomplish that goal.
The Roaring Fork Valley has so many cool things to do that a new resident will be overwhelmed with the possibilities. Whether Aspen Institute lectures, Food & Wine events, Jazz Aspen concerts, ballet, readings, there are many world-class events on the annual calendar. Of course, skiing in Aspen and Snowmass is only 45 minutes away, and great shopping can be found right at the base of the hill with Whole Foods in Willits. Hundreds of great restaurants make the RFV an epicurean delight, and the healing waters of the Glenwood Hot Springs beckon from Glenwood Springs, only 25 minutes to the northwest. Fly-fishing, mountain biking, pickleball, skiing, polo, tennis, golf, horseback riding—you name the sport or recreation, it can likely be found nearby.
