Eagle Ridge Ranch Homestead #2

The residential compound was designed to blend comfortably into the surrounding landscape while providing the amenities and views expected in a luxury mountain residence.

IMPROVEMENTS

The main home encompasses approximately 7,950 square feet and includes three bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and two half bathrooms. A separate guest residence provides three bedrooms (with the third bedroom set up as a bunk room) and three-and-one-half bathrooms, creating flexibility for family gatherings and visiting guests.

The massive, reclaimed beams (salvaged from a tobacco barn in Kentucky) provide the engineering integrity for the architectural masterpiece. Interior finishes reflect a classic Western mountain aesthetic, including reclaimed barn wood flooring, antique timber beams, copper accents, stone fireplaces, Viking appliances, a library and two dedicated office spaces. Modern infrastructure includes fourteen-zone radiant floor heat, dual boilers installed in 2022, reverse osmosis water treatment, fire suppression systems, backup generator capability, alarm system, a large cistern, private well, underground irrigation, and 2000 gallons of propane storage.

The interior was designed by LA interior designer Susan Cohen and includes the Swedish designed kitchen, “hand-holding-a-torch” sconces by the living room fireplace and many other touches. The home is family-friendly and great for hosting. For the reader there is ample space for books and several reading nooks as well as a cozy library and TV room. Multiple outdoor decks offer additional space for enjoying the serenity and beauty of the area. Thoughtful planning and tailored craftmanship make the residence on Homestead #2 one of the finest residential properties in the area.

The main home and the guest house are connected by a hallway which also accesses the mechanical (boilers, lighting, crawl space) room as well as the garage. Above the garage is a bonus room with full bathroom, currently used as home exercise space, but which is often used as an extra bedroom with bath.

The barn is a large, detached garage with a finished second story complete with balconies; perfect for star gazing at night.

ACREAGE

The property not only consists of 35± deeded acres, but the ownership also includes membership in the Eagle Ridge Ranch Homeowners Association and access to approximately 4,700 acres of private common ranch land. These shared lands encompass productive hay meadows, creek corridors, wildlife habitat, equestrian trails, hunting areas, and recreational amenities that significantly expand the ownership experience beyond the property’s deeded acreage.

Owners enjoy the ranch’s common amenities, allowing them to experience the benefits of a large western ranch environment without assuming sole responsibility for its acquisition, operation and maintenance. Shared amenity ranch ownership is a model that has become widely accepted and very popular in the Rocky Mountain region due to the access to more amenities at a lower cost than could be obtained individually, thereby creating value to the owner.

LOCATION AND ACCESS

The property enjoys year-round access from County Road 730, locally known as Ohio Creek Road. This paved county road provides convenient access to Gunnison. Gunnison is a very nice small town with a bustling downtown, three grocery stores, a university, commercial air transportation, dining, shopping and a hospital.
