Alma, CO 80420 216 Glacier Ridge Rd

Sweeping mountain views of Colorado's iconic 14,000-foot peaks pair with the ease of rarely available main-level living in this Alma home. Set on over three acres approximately 17 miles from Breckenridge, the home enjoys expansive mountain scenery and a low-maintenance approach to mountain living. Vaulted ceilings and expansive windows draw the mountains in, filling the main living spaces with natural light and views. The great room and kitchen connect seamlessly, anchored by a stone chimney and gas fireplace. Natural gas service supports both the gas range and fireplace. The primary suite is positioned on the main level and includes a custom-tiled walk-in shower, spacious vanity and room for a cozy reading chair. A second bedroom is on the main level with a full bath nearby. The loft functions as a sleeping alcove with closet, windows and private bath, home office or other flexible space. Every bedroom includes a walk-in closet. From the two-car garage, enter into a spacious mudroom fit for laundry with custom built-ins, pantry and separate utility room. Quality windows open to the outdoors, while exterior doors to the Trex decking and yard encourage indoor-outdoor rhythm. The large yard includes level areas well suited for pets and outdoor entertaining. Native grasses, wildflowers and moose sightings create a setting that feels at home in the mountain country. Breckenridge is within easy reach for skiing, while the surrounding area offers hiking, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, off-road and national forest adventures, and Continental Divide headwaters for fishing on the South Platte River. Custom built in 2011 for the owners and carefully maintained, the home balances thoughtful design with practical ease. Low-maintenance exterior siding, blacktop road access, a simple approach to the front porch and garage, Glacier Ridge HOA road snow removal, and mostly furnished all contribute to a retreat that feels comfortably turnkey.
