Bordering the historic Allen Ranch with unobstructed views of Crested Butte Mountain, Sanctuary at Snodgrass is an exceptional mountain retreat offering a level of privacy, tranquility, and immersion in nature that is increasingly rare in Crested Butte. Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac and surrounded by mature aspens, the property enjoys a setting where protected open space, abundant wildlife, and year-round recreation are woven into daily life. Comprehensively reimagined by a local designer and engineer, the residence reflects a refined mountain-modern aesthetic that balances timeless craftsmanship with understated luxury. Every architectural and design decision was thoughtfully considered to create a home that feels deeply connected to its alpine backdrop. Expansive windows frame the surrounding peaks, aspen groves, and open ranchland, while carefully curated materials and custom finishes create interiors that feel warm, elevated, and enduring. With five bedrooms, four bathrooms, and multiple living spaces, the home is designed for both intimate family time and effortless entertaining. Radiant in-floor heating, a heated driveway, generous gathering areas, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow provide comfort in every season. The chef’s kitchen is appointed with premium Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, while an integrated whole-home sound system enhances the experience throughout the property. A thoughtfully designed lock-off suite adds flexibility for guests, extended family, or private owner/guest separation without compromising the home’s sense of cohesion. Outdoor access is exceptional. Snodgrass Trail begins just beyond the backyard, inviting hiking, mountain biking, and exploration directly from the property. Ownership includes access to private Meridian Lake, while Long Lake—known for native cutthroat trout and scenic alpine beauty—is a short hike or bike ride away. Summer brings wildflowers, trails, and lake days; autumn surrounds the home in golden aspens; and winter offers world-class skiing, quiet snowfall, and monochromatic vistas. Wildlife abounds year round with visits from moose, foxes, and deer moving between the property and the neighboring ranch. Sanctuary at Snodgrass is an uncommon Crested Butte offering: private yet connected, refined yet deeply rooted in place, with protected open space, iconic views, thoughtful design, and four-season mountain living in one extraordinary setting.

Imagine the chance to own one of the rarest types of properties: a significant close-in estate where land, views, and proximity coexist. Cow Camp combines a remarkable main residence and guest home with 17+ acres less than one-half mile from downtown Crested Butte and approximately one mile from the ski mountain—creating a ranch-estate experience that becomes increasingly difficult to replicate over time. ***** Set above the protected Slate River valley, Cow Camp Homestead offers a rare combination of acreage, proximity, views, and long-term flexibility. Encompassing 17.34 acres across three parcels, the property provides privacy, scale, and opportunity otherwise unavailable this close to town. ***** The land defines the opportunity. Open meadows, protected view corridors, and the surrounding Slate River valley create a setting that feels expansive and permanent, while still a short walk or ride from Crested Butte’s historic core. Secured water rights and augmentation infrastructure — an increasingly scarce asset in the valley — support long-term confidence in ownership. Entitlements in place for three additional structures allow unusual flexibility for a multi-generational compound or long-term family retreat. The homestead includes a newly constructed main residence and thoughtfully restored guest home totaling more than 10,900 heated square feet, designed to support multi-generational living and long-term enjoyment. Expansive mountain views, seamless indoor-outdoor living, and multiple gathering spaces create a setting equally suited for quiet retreat or large-scale entertaining. ***** Completed in 2024, the main residence was designed by Sunlit Architecture and built by Hargrove & Kidd with an emphasis on durability, livability, and refined mountain craftsmanship. The original barn was completely rebuilt and finished in 2019, creating a beautifully independent guest home ideal for hosting family, friends, or clients. With infrastructure, utilities, and finished construction already complete, the property is ready for immediate enjoyment — without the time, complexity, and uncertainty of building in Crested Butte today. The opportunity to assemble this combination of land, location, and craftmanship would be extraordinarily difficult to replicate. Land, location, water, and proximity that cannot be recreated — paired with structures built with the same standard of conviction.
