Welcome to your private riverfront escape where nature, comfort, and craftsmanship come together in a truly one-of-a-kind setting. Set along 280' of coveted Crystal River frontage, this exceptional, 2+ acre property offers a rare blend of a private 'beach' and fishing access, sweeping mountain views, and direct access to protected open space via several private trails. Surrounded by lush gardens and walking paths, the nearly 4,000 sq. ft. home features 3 bedrooms, 3 full baths, plus an office, den, and bonus room. Warm, mountain-inspired finishes, skylights, and more than 40 windows fill this artsy and whimsical retreat with natural light, creating a seamless connection to the outdoors. The home's open layout offers multiple living areas, including space to gather around the fireplace. Wake each morning in a primary suite that evokes the serenity of a treehouse; perched for privacy, surrounded by mature trees and views galore. Guests will enjoy their own ensuite with a stunning perspective of Mount Sopris. The chef's kitchen is equipped with high-end appliances, custom cabinetry, island and bar seating. The dining room opens to over 2,100 sq. ft. of terraced decks overlooking the river, creating the perfect backdrop for entertaining or thoughtful repose. This end-of-the-road, off-grid capable, property invites a lifestyle that feels worlds away. Fly fish, cross-country ski or launch the kayak from your backyard. Soak in the hot tub, enjoy the outdoor shower, or feed your soul and creativity in the meditation studio; perfect to yoga, art, fly-tying, even music. Walk the manicured grounds or simply savor the soothing rhythm of the river in a hammock under the cottonwoods. What the owners call 'Peace on the Crystal' is just minutes from vibrant downtown Carbondale and historic Redstone and replete with amenities including Starlink connectivity, reverse osmosis water filtration, smart thermostats, a backup generator, EV charging, and central A/C. Embrace the artistic, eclectic charm and reimagine and re-invent. Anything is possible here; more than a home; it's your Colorado mountain Pura Vida.
