140 Lake Road

Description

Arrowhead, located midway between Gunnison and Montrose, is a Colorado Dream for all that have the opportunity to share in all that it has to offer. It's a combination of private mountain retreat with a Southwest Colorado resort. This home, located on Lake Road-just inside of the resort works great as a year round home, seasonal summer respite from the summer heat and humidity, or weekend gathering spot for your family and friends. The lot is roughly half open and half treed and this configuration makes access in and out easy and establishes just the right amount of sun-both summer and winter. Many would call this a home-others may call it a cabin-it really depends on how you want to use it. In the past it was used year round and its location in the middle between the Lodge and surrounding cabins makes it perfect for year round trips to the Lodge to meet up with your friends and visits to your surrounding neighbors. Entry into the home is through one of two doors-one off the covered end-with its beautiful new hot tub that is included in the sale price. The other is through the front-on the far end of the large end to end deck on the sunny side. Either door enters into a large great room, with an oversized, fully outfitted kitchen, laundry room and full bath on one end, and large dining room and massive living room with beautiful wood stove on the other. Above this room you'll appreciate the privacy of two generously sized bedrooms-one with private half bath. These are connected by a very cool 'cat walk' that overlooks the lower level and allows the wood stove to heat the entire space. You'll see that this cabin works well for one or two looking for privacy-it also is a sweet bunk house for you and 20 of your friends-bunked out on the lower level. The home is fully conventional-with regular electric, great water through the Arrowhead water system, and baseboard heaters to use as needed. You know you'll have toys here--and the former owners have really known how to enjoy the Alpine Plateau-it's fully outfitted as a shop, with rolling garage door, plenty of power, work benches along the sides and its own woodburning stove. Stairs lead to the upper level for storage that is decked front to back. The site is level, and wooded with beautiful pines, firs, spruce and aspen. It is part sunny and open too, bringing in light year round. There's a nice storage area for your firewood and a shed too, and the buildings are separated nicely, giving you plenty of room for your ATVs and other vehicles. Arrowhead is Southwest Colorado's playground, and people don't just come from Arizona, Texas and Florida, but locally from Montrose, Gunnison, Denver and Grand Junction. The Arrowhead community keeps the road from Highway 50 open year round, and one of the amazing aspects is the huge parking area just beyond the main lodge, allowing you to keep your snowmobiles or ATV with tracks ready for you to pull up with your conventional vehicle in the winter and take off to your cabin. This is patrolled and plowed so that it's safe and ready. You and your family will love the Lodge-which offers year round food and beverages as well as a place to party. Summers offer musical groups on the weekends and various clubs and groups gather here for hikes, hunting, jeeping or just stories. The lodge has 12 guest rooms, a small convenience store and an excellent restaurant with full meal and drink menu. This is a special legacy place for you and your family. Come see it today--make it your future home or cabin-you decide what works best for you!
