Description

Welcome to Wild Blue Yonder, a beautifully situated mountain retreat on 1.44 acres overlooking the breathtaking expanse of Blue Valley. Thoughtfully positioned to capture sweeping, panoramic views of the rolling mountains, this exceptional property combines privacy, gracious living, and the natural beauty of the Highlands Plateau. The property features a spacious main residence with an attached two-car garage, along with a charming guest cottage offering its own one-car garage. An elevator provides convenient access from the main house garage to the primary living level, making the home well suited for comfortable, easy living. Designed to embrace its spectacular setting, the main residence offers inviting indoor and outdoor spaces for both everyday enjoyment and entertaining. The living and dining areas open to a covered deck where the mountain vistas take center stage, while a generous outdoor patio with a fireplace creates the perfect gathering spot for cool mountain evenings. The main level includes the primary suite with a private office area, living room, kitchen, family room with bar, and laundry room. The thoughtful floor plan provides the convenience of main-level living while maintaining wonderful spaces for family and guests. One of the property's most distinctive features is a hidden bridge leading to the private guest cottage. Overlooking a tranquil koi pond and the surrounding mountains, the cottage offers a living room with fireplace, kitchen, full bath, and two bedrooms—creating a delightful and secluded retreat for overnight guests. Beautifully landscaped grounds showcase native mountain flora and complement the home's natural surroundings. A circular driveway provides easy access and ample guest parking, while a generator adds additional peace of mind.
