Mountain living feels effortless in this nearly new 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath mountain-modern home at the top of a cul-de-sac, just minutes from the Steamboat Ski Resort. The open-concept main level centers around a chef-inspired kitchen with quartz countertops, high-end appliances and ample room to cook and connect. The main-level primary suite offers a private retreat with a spa-like bath and walk-in closet. Upstairs, a guest suite is joined by two notably spacious bedrooms and another full bath. Both rear bedrooms open to a large connecting deck with sweeping views across the South Valley and toward Emerald Mountain. An open loft with its own closet adds flexible space for an office, fitness area, reading corner or additional guest sleeping with a trundle or bunk bed. Above the oversized 2-car garage, the 1-bedroom caretaker apartment features vaulted ceilings, its own loft and a private entry deck. Accessible from the main home and a private side entrance, it can extend the home's living space or be locked off for guests or rental use. The apartment has consistently generated $24k in gross annual long-term rental income. Front-facing views of the ski resort and Buffalo Pass make the space especially inviting. Set on .35 acres, the lot feels expansive, particularly for the neighborhood. The large, flat backyard offers a blank slate for landscaping, outdoor living, recreation and entertaining. The garage features freshly painted walls, epoxy floors, a separate side entrance and a boot-drying rack--ideal when returning from the slopes. Recent upgrades include air conditioning, power blinds, a new washer and dryer and a new dishwasher. Nearby, the Yampa River Core Trail and Whistler Park offer convenient year-round recreation, including a playground and dog park. A free city bus stop at the bottom of the street is just a 2-minute walk away, providing convenient access to the resort and downtown.
