189 hard way road

Surrounded by trees and quiet, this one-of-a-kind octagonal mountain home is thoughtfully set into its natural surroundings, offering privacy and a true sense of escape. Inside, the main level features an open-concept, circular layout designed to flow naturally around the center of the home. Windows wrap around the space, providing forest views in every direction and filling the home with natural light. The vaulted living area, anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, creates a warm and inviting gathering space and connects seamlessly to the outdoor balcony and additional living areas. The central staircase defines the layout, with the dining area positioned beneath it at the heart of the home. The main level also includes a half bath, a utility room with washer and HVAC, and a kitchen with a gas cooktop and mountain views from the sink. A second, more private living area offers flexibility for relaxing or unwinding. Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms with peaceful forest views are connected by a Jack-and-Jill style bathroom. An open loft at the top of the stairs, currently used as an office, overlooks the living space below and is filled with natural light. Set on just over two acres with no HOA, the property offers space, privacy, and flexibility for future possibilities. The home is equipped with its own solar power system, propane, private water well, and backup generator—all owned and included—providing efficient, reliable, and self-sufficient living with added peace of mind. Whether used as a full-time residence or a private mountain retreat, this home delivers character, comfort, and a truly unique Colorado mountain living experience.
