Built on 16 acres in Westcliffe, this 2005 log cabin offers one bedroom, one bath, and a level of self sufficiency that is rare to find already finished. Log walls and a wood plank ceiling run the length of the home. The living room has a propane stove and an open stair climbing to the loft bedroom above, where the ceiling follows the pitch of the roof and a window looks out over the meadow. The kitchen has a gas range, a tin backsplash, and a tankless propane water heater. A pantry lined floor to ceiling with shelving, a separate storage room, a covered front porch, and a covered deck where you can watch a storm cross the valley without getting wet round out the living space. In the sun room, an expansive bank of windows faces the meadow and provides plenty of natural light. The back wall holds the battery bank, the inverter, and the charge controllers, all fed by a ground mounted solar array outside and panels on the roof. Propane handles the heat, the hot water, and the cooking, and a generator stands by for the run of grey days every mountain winter delivers. Three outbuildings sit just off the home, including a large barn with a lean to for equipment and a second shed running a solar panel of its own. Garden beds are already framed and fenced against the deer, ready for a first season. Ponderosa pines climb the hillside behind the home and the meadow opens out in front of it, with rocky ridges filling the skyline in every direction. Sixteen acres is room to keep animals, put up a shop, park everything you own, and still have most of it left over. Westcliffe is an International Dark Sky Community, and out here the stars prove it. If you have been looking for a self sufficient place in the mountains of Colorado, call today to schedule a tour.
