Secluded Grand Lake Alpine Estate: this custom Grand Lake alpine estate offers a level of scale and privacy rarely available this close to Rocky Mountain National Park. Properties of this acreage, build quality, and retreat capacity are seldom offered in Grand Lake. Set on 21 acres with commanding Continental Divide views, the residence spans nearly 7,000 finished square feet and is fully appointed for elevated mountain living and high-end retreats. With a proven, high-performing short-term rental track record, this is a legacy-caliber asset. Approved for 22 overnight guests, with venue capacity to host private events up to 50 (subject to applicable permits and local regulations). Anchoring the main level is a dramatic great room with vaulted ceilings, wide-plank pine floors, a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, and arched window walls that frame the surrounding peaks. The chef's kitchen is designed for serious entertaining, showcasing a Wolf range set within custom stone archwork, paired with a Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer, and custom knotty-wood cabinetry. Dining and living spaces extend to expansive wraparound decks for year-round gatherings. The estate offers 5 bedrooms and 4.5 baths, including a main-level primary suite with a dual-sided fireplace and a spa bath featuring a jetted soaking tub positioned for views, dual vanity, and an oversized multi-head shower. Upstairs, a secluded en-suite bedroom above the attached garage offers exceptional privacy-ideal for guests. The walkout level is tailored for apres-adventure relaxation with a generous media and billiards lounge and a custom wet bar. Covered decks, an exterior stone bar and BBQ area, a hot tub, and a garden gazebo complete the setting, with frequent wildlife sightings across the acreage. Radiant heat is fueled by natural gas, and the home is connected to the public sewer system. A rare opportunity for a premier mountain escape with outstanding retreat and rental flexibility.
