The home includes 2,752± square feet of living space and was built in 2003, with additional space in the partially finished walk-out basement for future use. While it has one formal bedroom, the home is configured to sleep approximately 10 people, with two sets of bunk beds, one full bed, one queen bed, and one king bed. Constructed with 12- to 24-inch Douglas fir exterior logs, the house carries the kind of mountain character buyers are after in this part of Colorado. A large covered porch opens into the front foyer, and from there the home moves into an open kitchen, dining, and family room layout with the primary bedroom on the main floor. Inside, the custom Douglas fir cabinetry, trusses, flooring, and wood-burning stove give the house a strong sense of character. The land is what gives the property its broader reach. Located in Gunnison Highlands North and bordering Gunnison National Forest, the ranch opens directly into miles of public ground for hiking, fishing, horseback riding, 4x4 use, OHV and ATV riding, snowmobiling, and cross-country skiing. Set at just over 9,400 feet in elevation, the property carries the kind of crisp air, summer wildflowers, and open night skies that define this country. Access is seasonal, though the previous owners have lived there year-round. Winter access is typically by snowmobile, tracked vehicle, or other OHV into Almont off County Road 742, while non-snow access is by automobile via County Road 743 in Gunnison and Lost Canyon Road from Almont. The property is also well set up for horses and practical rural use. A 30x36 barn with power and an automatic waterer, along with a small outside corral, gives the ranch a solid equestrian component.

Between the forest boundary, horse setup, and mountain access, the property offers a strong combination of home, land, and recreation in a setting built for people who want to use it rather than just visit it.

**Owners just installed a brand new septic system!** The moment you pass through the private gate at Wilderness Streams, you'll understand why properties here are so highly sought after. This community sits along one of the most scenic corridors in the Gunnison Valley. Tucked among towering aspens and pines, 519 Sioux Road is the quintessential Colorado mountain cabin—private, peaceful, and surrounded by nature, yet easily accessible from both Crested Butte and Gunnison year round! It’s truly the exact kind of place people dream about when they picture their Colorado mountain cabin. This beautifully updated modified A-frame sits on just under 1.4 acres with over 2300sqft, 3 bedrooms, and 2.5 baths. With multiple living spaces, there's plenty of room for all your family and friends. Walking through the front door into the main living and dining space, you’ll immediately notice the soaring exposed beam ceilings, massive triangular windows framing your front porch and yard, and a new wood-burning stove that anchors the living room. The newly renovated kitchen is the jewel of the property; sage green shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, a farmhouse sink, tile backsplash that runs up the entire wall, new stainless appliances, and warm wood ceilings. It strikes the perfect balance of modern design and functionality, while still maintaining that classic cabin feel. New luxury vinyl plank flooring and updated light fixtures run throughout the home, rounding out the renovation. Off the kitchen is a full bathroom with a classic clawfoot tub, as well as the huge primary bedroom with its own ensuite, and a guest bedroom currently being used as an office. The Starlink internet makes it possible to work from home, so on one hand you can feel completely off-grid, but also stay plugged in when you need to be. Outside, the large deck serves as a treetop perch surrounded by pines, with mountain peaks visible just beyond the canopy. If you wanted to open up the views even more, that would be possible just by clearing a few trees. This is the ideal place to enjoy your morning coffee or your evening drink. And when the stars come out, the firepit out front is the perfect place to roast some s’mores. Upstairs, a loft offers flexible space for extra beds or hanging out, plus a large bedroom that will have you feeling like you’re sleeping in a treehouse. Downstairs, a finished basement with a gas fireplace is a natural gathering spot on cold evenings, and the oversized utility room accommodates tons of storage, laundry, and a half bath. Wilderness Streams owners enjoy two stocked trout ponds, reciprocal access to private fishing in a few nearby subdivisions, and a private gated entrance to thousands of acres of Gunnison National Forest. Hiking, snowshoeing, horseback riding, hunting, wildlife watching… it's all right outside your door. Common grounds are leased to Spann Ranches, keeping the community's ranching heritage alive and granting property owners agricultural tax status, which means property taxes are remarkably low. No short-term rentals are permitted, so the neighborhood has a real, quiet, community feel rather than a revolving door of vacation rentals. For buyers seeking privacy, recreation, and a genuine connection to the outdoors, 519 Sioux Road offers a lifestyle that is increasingly hard to find. Cabins in a setting like this, with interiors like these, in a community this special, do not come available often.
