Mountain Living at Its Finest – Unique Strawbale Retreat on 5.6 Acres Tucked away in a breathtaking aspen and evergreen forest, this extraordinary 4,800 sq ft strawbale home offers unparalleled seclusion, sustainability, and spaciousness. With direct access to the National Forest, this one-of-a-kind property is a true sanctuary just 2 miles from Woodland Park. Crafted with intention and character, this 5-bedroom, 4-bath custom residence showcases hand-harvested log beams from the property, warm wood-burning stove, radiant floor heat on the main level, and the superior insulation benefits of strawbale construction—keeping the home cozy in winter and cool in summer. The expansive living and dining area features space to comfortably seat twelve—perfect for holiday dinners, gatherings, or board game nights. The kitchen includes double ovens, a spacious walk-in pantry, and is centrally located for functionality and flow. On the main level, a guest-friendly bedroom is paired with an adjacent full bath, while a large home office near the oversized laundry area (complete with two washers and two dryers) provides convenience and privacy for remote work. Upstairs, a sprawling loft offers bonus living space, a fitness area, and three custom-built aspen beds in the bedrooms—each crafted from trees sourced directly from the land. The primary suite invites relaxation with a luxurious jetted soaking tub surrounded by tranquil mountain views. Step outside to discover a firepit tucked among hundreds of whispering aspens, a serene backdrop that bursts into golden brilliance each fall. With ample attic storage, off-grid potential (pre-wired and piped for solar), and abundant wildlife roaming freely, this is the ultimate Colorado homestead for nature lovers and sustainability enthusiasts. High producing well, no HOA's, zoned A-1 for animals, very private, and still only a 10 minute drive to Woodland Park.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
