6 Moon Ridge Lane Crested Butte, CO 81224

So much open space, so close to town! Set on 2.82 premium acres with incredible unobstructed views in the Moon Ridge Subdivision, this stunning home offers an unrivaled combination of privacy and breathtaking vistas, just 1/3 mile to scenic recreational pathway access to downtown Crested Butte. Designed by Andrew Hadley and built by Mike Wright in 2018, this home blends a classic Colorado exterior of stone, cedar, and reclaimed wood with a sophisticated contemporary European interior - unlike anything else in the valley. Spanning 3,736 square feet, the home is designed to maximize natural light and dramatic landscapes. Expansive windows frame Crested Butte peak as it climbs to the sky in what feels like your own private backyard. To the south, enjoy sweeping down-valley panoramic views past Whetstone Mountain. To the west, unforgettable sunsets over Kebler Pass will bookmark your days in paradise. The interior main level boasts a chef-designed gourmet kitchen, an open-concept living and dining space, two beautifully appointed patios, and a private primary en suite. The upper level features two spacious bedrooms along with two versatile multi-purpose spaces that offer the flexibility of a fourth bedroom. Architectural highlights include exposed structural steel beams and a striking floating steel staircase forged by local blacksmith Adam Chater. Refined finishes throughout feature Austrian white oak flooring, an ultra-efficient Finnish Tulikivi soapstone fireplace, Porcelanosa accent tile, and a Level 5 drywall finish. Tucked away within Moon Ridge yet positioned close to both Crested Butte and Mt. Crested Butte, the home provides easy access to both via the corridor rec path, ideal for biking or walking. In winter, ski lifts are just minutes away, and Nordic trails are right outside your door. The surrounding protected open space preserves exquisite views of the Gunnison National Forest and the Washington Gulch stream, with sightings of elk, foxes, and the occasional bear. This is a rare opportunity to own a truly exceptional home - where impeccable design meets an irreplaceable setting. (Two photos have been virtually staged.)
