Living in Evergreen Co is something special-but finding a home on this particular lot makes it extraordinary. Let the emotional gravity captivate you as you pass Evergreen Lake, leave the highway behind, and wind along the creek banks on one of Evergreen's most scenic and iconic drives, Upper Bear Creek Road - Here, mountain life and timeless Colorado beauty unfold at every turn. Nestled in serene solitude on 4.87 acres of gently sloping meadow, sprinkled with wildflowers and towering pines, this classic ranch-style home offers rare one-level living in the mountains. Perfectly positioned against the majestic backdrop of Mt. Blue Sky, this home was custom-built in 1976 by the current owners-showcasing pride of ownership and has been meticulously maintained. From the moment you arrive, you're welcomed by native stone flower beds, flagstone pathways, abundant guest parking and inviting curb appeal. The setting is peaceful, so quiet you can hear the pinecones drop and the hummingbirds zip by in the stillness. Inside, the heart of the home is a spacious kitchen centered around the oversized island, framed by charming see-through arches and inspiring views. It's a space that has hosted decades of family meals and celebrations. The great room features floor-to-ceiling windows, soaring ceilings with tongue and groove wood. It draws your attention to the outdoors on to the expansive deck where the true beauty of the meadow and mountain views can be enjoyed. A commanding, notable feature is the centralized, stone, double sided, fireplace adding warm charm to the character of the home. The floor-plan transitions easily and room sizes are generous. Whether you want to expand the existing footprint or build that dreamy barndominium, there's plenty of room to make it your own. This is more than a house, it's a story, a legacy and a great opportunity to own a slice of Evergreen. Office/5th bedroom has closet, egress windows, non conforming.
